loadViewIfNeeded before iOS 9
<p>I need to create and load a <code>UIViewController</code> before inserting it as a subview into another <code>UIViewController</code>.</p>

<p>In iOS 9 I could do <code>myController.loadViewIfNeeded()</code>. What is a good workaround for iOS 8?</p>

<p>It seems that <code>myController.view.hidden = myController.view.hidden</code> works but it seems like a dangerous hack.</p>
