# delegate

The view’s delegate.

## Declaration

```swift
@IBOutlet unowned(unsafe) var delegate: (any GLKViewDelegate)? { get set }
```

## Discussion

Discussion A delegate is optional. If a delegate is provided, it is called instead of calling a draw(_:) method whenever the view’s contents need to be drawn. You should either subclass the view to override the draw method, or provide a delegate, but not both.
