Issues displaying a table view cell from one view controller to another - ios

Question

Right now I am trying to move information from my goal cell into a new table view cell, and am having difficulty getting the cell to display.
Here is the code for my goal cell.
import UIKit
class GoalsViewController: UIViewController {
#IBOutlet weak var tableView: UITableView!
var Goals: [String] = ["goal 1", "goal 2", "goal 3"]
let theEmptyModel: [String] = ["No data in this section."]
var valueToPass = ""
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
tableView.delegate = self
tableView.dataSource = self
}
func showGoalSelected() {
DispatchQueue.main.asyncAfter(deadline: DispatchTime.now()) {
let popUp = GoalSelectedPopUp()
self.view.addSubview(popUp)
}
}
override func prepare(for segue: UIStoryboardSegue, sender: Any?) {
if (segue.identifier == "GoalConversationsCell_1") {
let viewController = segue.destination as! ActiveGoalsViewController
viewController.Goals.append([valueToPass])
}
}
}
extension GoalsViewController: UITableViewDataSource, UITableViewDelegate {
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return Goals.count
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "GoalCell_1", for: indexPath)
cell.textLabel?.text = Goals[indexPath.row]
cell.textLabel?.lineBreakMode = NSLineBreakMode.byWordWrapping
cell.textLabel?.numberOfLines = 3
return cell
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, didSelectRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) {
if indexPath.section == 0 {
valueToPass = Goals[indexPath.row]
performSegue(withIdentifier: "activeGoalsSegue", sender: self)
Goals.remove(at: indexPath.row)
if Goals.count != 0 {
showGoalSelected()
} else {
Goals.append(contentsOf: theEmptyModel)
}
tableView.reloadData()
}
}
Here is the goal cells storyboard with the push segue connecting it to the other table view.
That other table view is shown below.
Here is the code for this new tableview.
import UIKit
class ActiveGoalsViewController: UIViewController {
#IBOutlet weak var goalTableView: UITableView!
let sections: [String] = ["Mark as Complete:", "History:"]
var goals: [[String]] = [[], []]
let theEmptyModel: [String] = ["No data in this section."]
extension ActiveGoalsViewController: UITableViewDataSource, UITableViewDelegate {
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return Goals[section].count
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "TodayGoalViewCell_1", for: indexPath) as? GoalTableViewCell
cell?.goalLabel.text = Goals[indexPath.section][indexPath.row]
cell?.cellDelegate = self
cell?.index = indexPath
return cell!
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, titleForHeaderInSection section: Int) -> String? {
return sections[section]
}
func numberOfSections(in tableView: UITableView) -> Int {
return Goals.count
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, didSelectRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) {
if indexPath.section == 0 {
if Goals[0] != theEmptyModel {
Goals[1].append(Goals[0][indexPath.row])
if Goals[1].first!.contains("No data in this section.") {
Goals[1].removeFirst()
}
Goals[0].remove(at: indexPath.row)
if Goals[0].count == 0 {
Goals[0].append(contentsOf: theEmptyModel)
}
tableView.reloadData()
}
}
}
Once the goal is selected, it sends me to the new storyboard, but this new view does not display the goal that was just added. Can someone help me figure out why this isn't working? Thanks.

I think in the second view controller you need to access the "goals" variable with a lower case g rather then the "Goals" variable with an upper case G.
