we have created a sliding drawer in our iphone application, we have done this using following procedure:

  1. Create a UIView object in your View Controller in Interface builder.
  2. create the object of UIView in your view controller (do not forget to make it (IBOutlet) in .h file)
  3. Similarly create a button in both interface builder and view controller, along with it's action method.
  4. Link the objects in header file with objects in interface builder

In viewDidLoad of your view controller set frame of the view you want to slide, with button

    - (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];

toOpenView.frame = CGRectMake(self.view.frame.size.width, toOpenView.frame.origin.y, 0, toOpenView.frame.size.height);

}

In click event of your button add following code

    -(IBAction)onOpenButtonClick:(id)sender
    {
[UIView beginAnimations:nil context:nil];
[UIView setAnimationDuration:0.8];

if (toOpenView.frame.origin.x == self.view.frame.size.width/2)
{

    toOpenView.frame = CGRectMake(self.view.frame.size.width, toOpenView.frame.origin.y, 0, toOpenView.frame.size.height);
    openButton.frame = CGRectMake((self.view.frame.size.width - openButton.frame.size.width), openButton.frame.origin.y, openButton.frame.size.width, openButton.frame.size.height);

}
else
{
    toOpenView.frame = CGRectMake(self.view.frame.size.width/2, toOpenView.frame.origin.y, self.view.frame.size.width/2, toOpenView.frame.size.height);
    openButton.frame = CGRectMake((toOpenView.frame.size.width - openButton.frame.size.width), openButton.frame.origin.y, openButton.frame.size.width, openButton.frame.size.height);
}
[UIView commitAnimations];

}
