How to hook up the window of MainWindow.xib with the AppDelegate in Xcode 4.2?

Question

I am experimenting with Interface Builder in Xcode 4.2 and iOS 5 on a old Mac.

In Xcode 3.2 there was always a MainWindow.xib file and it contained not only the File's Owner which was UIApplication IMHO, but also an App Delegate placeholder object.

I created a MainWindow.xib file using the Window xib template. The AppDelegate placeholder is missing, so I can't hook the window up to my actual app delegate object.

I suppose that I will need to add a placeholder object with it's class identity set to "AppDelegate" but couldn't figure out how.

Just drag out one of the blue cubes (called "Object") from the objects library and change its class to the class of your app delegate.
