UiLabel text assignment in custom view - ios

Question

I have created a custom view (custom view) inside other custom view(bage). Then in main view I add custom view as a subview. After that I am trying to set text via property and it does not work.
Bage.h:
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
#interface Bage : UIView
#property (nonatomic,strong) UILabel *title;
#end
Bage.m:
#import "Bage.h"
#implementation Bage
#synthesize title;
- (id)initWithFrame:(CGRect)frame
{
self = [super initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 45, 25)];
if (self) {
// Initialization code
}
return self;
}
- (void)drawRect:(CGRect)rect
{
//// General Declarations
CGContextRef context = UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext();
//// Shadow Declarations
UIColor* shadow = UIColor.blackColor;
CGSize shadowOffset = CGSizeMake(3.1, 3.1);
CGFloat shadowBlurRadius = 3;
//// Variable Declarations
CGFloat buttonWidth = rect.size.width - 2 - 4;
CGFloat buttonHeigh = rect.size.height - 2 - 4;
//// Frames
// CGRect frame = CGRectMake(frSize.origin.x, frSize.origin.y, frSize.size.width, frSize.size.height);
//// Rectangle Drawing
UIBezierPath* rectanglePath = [UIBezierPath bezierPathWithRoundedRect: CGRectMake(1, 1, buttonWidth, buttonHeigh) cornerRadius: 8];
CGContextSaveGState(context);
CGContextSetShadowWithColor(context, shadowOffset, shadowBlurRadius, [shadow CGColor]);
[UIColor.whiteColor setFill];
[rectanglePath fill];
CGContextRestoreGState(context);
[[UIColor greenColor] setStroke];
rectanglePath.lineWidth = 1;
[rectanglePath stroke];
title = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(CGRectGetMinX(rect) + 1, CGRectGetMinY(rect) + 1, CGRectGetWidth(rect) - 6, CGRectGetHeight(rect) - 6)];
title.textColor = [UIColor blackColor];
title.textAlignment = NSTextAlignmentCenter;
[self addSubview:title];
}
#end
CustomView.h
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
#import "Bage.h"
#interface CustomView : UIView
#property (nonatomic,strong) Bage *myBage;

if (self) {
// Initialization code
myBage = [[Bage alloc] init];
self.backgroundColor = [UIColor greenColor];
myBage.title.text = #"Class text";
myBage.center = self.center;
[self addSubview:myBage];
}
return self;
}
#end
ViewController.m
#import "ViewController.h"
#import "CustomView.h"
#interface ViewController ()
#end
#implementation ViewController
- (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];
// Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.
self.view.backgroundColor = [UIColor blueColor];
CustomView *cView = [[CustomView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(30, 30, 200, 200)];
[self.view addSubview:cView];
cView.myBage.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
cView.myBage.title.text = #"Text";
}
- (void)didReceiveMemoryWarning {
[super didReceiveMemoryWarning];
// Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}
#end
Please help me to get text in my bage.

Do not add the title as a subview in drawRect:. You should do this when the Bage view is initialized. Also, you are using the rect given to you in drawRect:, which will not always be the bounds of the view. So, add the title in your initializer
