Question: I am creating a custom iPhone View in MonoTouch through the interface builder in XCode (In monodevelop New File -> MonoTouch -> iPhone View).

When selecting a new iPhone View it creates an xib file, but no .h file is created, so how can I create outlets?

I usually drag an outlet from my label/button etc. to the .h file, but since it doesn't exist for this view, I don't know how to create the outlets.

Can someone point me in the right direction, since all articles on google are for the old versions, where outlets where created differently.

Answer: 
When you double-click a .xib in MonoDevelop, MonoDevelop will generate header files for your [Register]'d C# classes that subclass ObjC types and export them to a temporary Xcode project, where you can use Xcode to drag&drop Outlets and Actions.

Adding a new iPhone View file (.xib) does not auto-create any backing C# classes for you, it *just* creates the .xib, therefore MonoDevelop does not autogenerate any header files for you when you double-click the .xib.

When Xcode launches, you can manually create some Objective-C headers for this .xib and drag&drop outlets or actions to it (or you can create C# classes in MonoDevelop before double-clicking the .xib). When you switch back to MonoDevelop, MonoDevelop will "import" the header files, translating them into the equivalent C#.

While in Xcode, you can also add .xib's there and MonoDevelop will import those as well.
The Xamarin documentation has a good [tutorial](http://docs.xamarin.com/ios/getting_started/Hello_iPhone) on this. There is a section for **Adding Outlets and Actions to the UI** using Interface Builder in Xcode4
