Objective-C - is there any way to have UIView property as array? - ios

Question

I need to access the UIView array items (where all UIView will have its own independent activity). But while assigning as #property (assign, nonatomic) UIView *ui_view[MAXIMUM_UIVIEW];, its causing the build to fail.
is there anyway to make it work the way i am trying or some other better way?
ERROR:
CODE:
#import "ViewController.h"
const int MAXIMUM_UIVIEW = 50;
#interface ViewController ()
#property (assign, nonatomic) UIView *ui_view[MAXIMUM_UIVIEW];
#property (assign, nonatomic) NSInteger phone_height;
#property (assign, nonatomic) NSInteger phone_width;
-(void)func_draw_wall:(int)argument_count;
#end
#implementation ViewController
-(void)ui_button_submit:(UIButton*)sender {
int __chronological__;
//UIView *ui_view[MAXIMUM_UIVIEW];
//int phone_height = self.view.frame.size.height;
//int phone_width = self.view.frame.size.width;
int phone_height = self.view.frame.size.height;
int phone_width = self.view.frame.size.width;
self.phone_height = phone_height;
self.phone_width = phone_width;
for (__chronological__ = 0 ; __chronological__ <= 50 ; __chronological__++ ) {
[self func_draw_wall:__chronological__];
}
}
-(void)func_draw_wall:(int)__chronological__ {
self.ui_view[__chronological__] =
[[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 50,50)];
[self.view addSubview:self.ui_view[__chronological__]];
NSLog(#"Mem Address of localView[%d] = %x\n", __chronological__, self.ui_view);
}
-(void)ui_button {
self.view.backgroundColor = [UIColor blackColor];
UIButton *but = [[UIButton alloc] init];
[but setTitle:#"--- Add ---" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[but setTitleColor:[UIColor redColor] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[but addTarget:self action:#selector(ui_button_submit:)
forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
int startHeight = 167;
int frameHeight = self.view.frame.size.height - startHeight;
[but setFrame:CGRectMake(0, startHeight, 320, frameHeight)];
[but setTranslatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints:false];
[but setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"Image"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[self.view addSubview:but];
NSDictionary *viewsDict = #{#"button" : but};
[self.view addConstraints:[NSLayoutConstraint

NSLayoutConstraint *constraint = [NSLayoutConstraint constraintWithItem:but

Make the type NSArray *, not UIView *[]
You should be able to use a generic type parameter, so NSArray<UIView *> *
