iphone - How to draw a rectangle?

Question

I want to draw a filled rectangle in my viewContoller's view. I wrote the code below in viewDidLoad. But there is no change. What is wrong?

CGRect rectangle = CGRectMake(0, 100, 320, 100);
CGContextRef context = UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext();
CGContextSetRGBFillColor(context, 1.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0);
CGContextSetRGBStrokeColor(context, 1.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0);
CGContextFillRect(context, rectangle);

You can't do it in a viewController. You need to extend your View and add the code under "drawRect:"

this will change the drawing logic of your view.

-(void) drawRect:(CGRect)rect{    
[super drawRect:rect];  
    CGRect rectangle = CGRectMake(0, 100, 320, 100);
    CGContextRef context = UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext();
    CGContextSetRGBFillColor(context, 1.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0);
    CGContextSetRGBStrokeColor(context, 1.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0);
    CGContextFillRect(context, rectangle);
}
