Copy a UIView from xib and programmatically repeat it using NSKeyedArchiver and NSKeyedUnarchiver.

Lets create a _contactView in .h file using IBOutlet, and connect it in .xib file.

Connect it to the _contactView.

In .m:

//The following line will create a similar view as _contactView in the XIB;

 id copyOfView = [NSKeyedUnarchiver unarchiveObjectWithData:[NSKeyedArchiver archivedDataWithRootObject:_contactsView]];

// Repeat the view to generate multiple copies and add to the scroll view.

for (int i =0; i<_contactArray.count; i++) {

        UIView* tempView ;//= [[UIView alloc]init];

        id copyOfView = [NSKeyedUnarchiver unarchiveObjectWithData:[NSKeyedArchiver archivedDataWithRootObject:_contactsView]];

        tempView = copyOfView;

        tempView.tag = i;

        [tempView setFrame:CGRectMake(xOffset, yOffset, width, height)];

        yOffset += ySpacing+height;

        [_contactScrollView addSubview:tempView];

    }

    [_contactScrollView setContentSize:CGSizeMake(_contactsView.frame.size.width, _contactsView.frame.size.height*(_contactArray.count+1))];
