I have created a custom UIViewController class that creates a ScrollView at runtime that it loads into the view. See code here in the constructor of my custom UIViewController.

        initControl(id, canEdit);

        _controllers = new NSMutableArray(0); //required to keep view controllers around

        _scrollView = new UIScrollView();
        _scrollView.BackgroundColor = UIColor.Green;
        this.View = _scrollView; 

ViewDidAppear and ViewWillAppear are called normally.

ViewDidLoad is not called which I am not sure why as the view is showing up on the screen just fine.

Any ideas?
