I've been working around the tableview
and got stuck on the following issue.
As far as i understand the willDisplayCell
delegate method should allow me to access the current cell design.
My issue is - i cannot access the instance of the custom cell, because it was separately declared in the cellForRowAtIndexPath
method. And if i declare it again - i cannot access it's objects (i have an uibutton
there). Or maybe i'm misunderstanding the use of this method.
Here is my code
func tableView(tableView: UITableView, willDisplayCell cell: UITableViewCell, forRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) {
//declaring the cell variable again
var cell:TblCell = self.tableView.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier("cell") as! TblCell
if let text = cell.lblCarName.text where !text.isEmpty {
cell.act1.hidden = false
} else {
println("Failed")
}
}
My goal as it is seen in the code is to access the TblCell uilabel
and apply a conditional to it - if its nil - show the uibutton
.
NB: My delegate and datasource is set correctly, the method is running, the app compiles, but the conditionals don't work as i've intended them to.
Thank you!
