Different source for callout in MKAnnotation?

I have a UIViewController that displays the MKPinAnnotation callout, using a XML source to display the related title and subtitle that I want. Is it possible to use the same UIViewController, but with an image this time as I would need to do another callout whereby I load the title/subtitle and image?

Is it possible to use the same UIViewController for the callout, but different sources? e.g. XML and retrieval from database?

your question is not clear, can you explain a little more. - Robin
Currently in my application,i'm displaying pins based on an xml file that i load.When the user taps on the callout,it displays a UIViewController with title and subtitle.But,what i need to do now's that i need to display an image in the viewcontroller too,but load the title,subtitle and image from a database.I'm wondering if its possible to use the same viewcontroller. - user848369
Are you subclassing the MKAnnotationView or you are using the apple provided. - Robin

you can use it but look into the documentation for the mapView. Try overriding the pin and the view functions so it can display a custom image.

You can use image property of the MKAnnotationView to show your image or you can use leftCalloutAccessoryView to add a uiimageview with your image to show on callout.
