monotouch no longer combines xib with .cs and .designer.cs files

Before upgrading to version Mono 2.10.9, XCode 4.2 and Monotouch 5.2.11 I used to see just the myfile.xib file and 'underneath' (in expanded mode) I would see the corresponding myfile.xib.cs and myfile.xib.designer.cs files.

Now I see the myfile.xib on its own and a separate myfile.cs with underneath it myfile.designer.cs.

Can anyone tell me why this is and how to go back to what it was before? (ie just a single xib with underneath it the cs and designer files)

Thanks

This is by design. There are no longer foo.xib.designer.cs files, because xibs from Xcode 4 do not define classes, so classes cannot be generated from them. Instead, the classes have designer parts, and the designer modifies the designer parts of the classes directly.

This is how things are since MonoDevelop 2.6. Some stuff changed when the stand-alone Interface Builder "died" and this is one of them.

From what I understand, you cannot go back to that, unless you don't mind having outdated stuff.

EDIT: I think it is better this way because I used to accidentally open the XIB files quite often, instead of the source files I wanted to with the old versions.
