Programmatically focus on UITextView is not working

Before closing the post as duplicate,believe me,i am searching this for 2 days but still nothing. I will try to be as clear as possible:

I have a view with a textview.I need to set focus automatically on the textview so the keyboard ill appear.

PostView.h

@interface PostView : UIViewController{
UITextView *txtPesto;
}
@property (nonatomic,retain) IBOutlet UITextView *txtPesto;
@end

PostView.m

#import "PostView.h"
@implementation PostView
@synthesize txtPesto;

- (void)viewDidLoad
{

    [super viewDidLoad];
   [txtPesto becomeFirstResponder];
}

For some very strange reason my code is not working,although i have tried many samples and different approaches. Any help?

Answer from my comment (for closing question): Right click on textView, and "new referncing outlet", maybe that will be helpful?

You are declaring txtPesto twice in your .h file:

@interface PostView : UIViewController{
    UITextView *txtPesto;
}
@property (nonatomic,retain) IBOutlet UITextView *txtPesto;
@end

When you declare it as a property, you don't need to do it again. So remove the extra declaration, and just use this:

@interface PostView : UIViewController

@property (nonatomic,retain) IBOutlet UITextView *txtPesto;

@end

I don't see any other reason that becomeFirstResponder wouldn't work.
