Yes, yours looks like I was expecting mine to look.
Note that viewDidLoad (below) does work correctly, producing the expected results in the simulator!
Hangman3ViewController.h:
@interface Hangman3ViewController : UIViewController {
}
@property ( nonatomic ) NSInteger wordLength;
@property ( retain, nonatomic ) NSString *alphabet;
@property ( nonatomic ) unichar guess;
@property ( nonatomic ) NSInteger guessNo;
@property ( retain, nonatomic ) NSMutableString *board;
@property ( retain, nonatomic ) IBOutlet
UILabel *boardLabel;
@property ( retain, nonatomic ) IBOutlet
UILabel *guessNumberLabel;
@property ( retain, nonatomic ) IBOutlet
NSArray *keyboardButtons;
- (IBAction)letter:(id)sender;
- (void)showBoard;
@end
and, Hangman3ViewController.m:
#import "Hangman3ViewController.h"
@implementation Hangman3ViewController
@synthesize wordLength = _wordLength; // preprocessor command to gen getter/setter and instance variable
@synthesize boardLabel = _boardLabel; // preprocessor command to gen getter/setter and instance variable
@synthesize guessNumberLabel = _guessNumberLabel; // Guess #n
@synthesize keyboardButtons = _keyboardButtons; // array of buttons
@synthesize alphabet = _alphabet; // A-Z unichars
@synthesize guess = _guess; // unichar
@synthesize guessNo = _guessNo; // int
@synthesize board = _board;
- (IBAction)letter:(id)sender
{
/*
Get letter from sender - driven when key button is pressed.
The button's tag is an int from 0-25, identifying what letter of the alphabet it is.

UIButton *button = (UIButton *)sender;
self.guess = [self.alphabet characterAtIndex: button.tag];
NSLog(@"Received keystroke: %C", self.guess);
[button setEnabled:NO];
