Reference to control in view

I’m trying to understand the following code coming from the iOSHttpSocketExample (PageReceived event).

GetTestView(currentView).taResponseArea.Text = buffer

GetTestView is the iosView control as is the currentView property. The code references the TextArea control. Why can’t I just do this:

currentView.taResponseArea.Text = buffer

In .NET, which is my expertise, this would work. Maybe I’m overlooking something here. What?

if your view is not named currentView, it will not work. Try :

self.taResponseArea.Text = buffer
