title: Setting custom UITabBarItem programmatically?
body: <p>In iOS, the TabBar property in the TabBarController is read only.  How can I associate a custom item with a particular view controller?  How do I access the UITabBarItems inside the tabBar?</p>
  
  <p>Like this</p>
  
  <pre><code>CustomView *custom = [[CustomView alloc] init];
  UITabBarItem *customTab = [[UITabBarItem alloc] initWithTitle:@"Custom" image:[UIImage imageNamed:@"custom.png"] tag:0];
  SecondView *second = [[SecondView alloc] init];
  UITabBarItem *secondTab = [[UITabBarItem alloc] initWithTitle:@"Next" image:[UIImage imageNamed:@"next.png"] tag:1];
  NSArray *views = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:custom,second,nil];
  [tabBarController setViewControllers:views];
  //how do I set the individual TabBarItems (customTab,secondTab) to be associated
  //with the views in question?  tabBarController.tabBar is read only
  </code></pre>
