How to display UICollectionView inside static TableViewCell? - ios

Question

I want to display UICollectionView inside static TableViewCell
I have a static TableViewCell that contains CollectionView. Well, the problem is that, in my opinion, code looks good but when I launch program, TableViewCell doesn't show me CollectionView. I'm a little bit confused, so I will be so happy if you help me. Thanks
TableViewController Class:
override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
var Cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "Action")
switch indexPath.section {
case 0:
tableView.register(ScheduleCell.self, forCellReuseIdentifier: "Schedule")
Cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "Schedule") as! ScheduleCell
case 1:
return Cell!
case 2:
tableView.register(MarksCell.self, forCellReuseIdentifier: "Marks")
Cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "Marks") as! MarksCell
default:
Cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "Action") as! ActionCell
}
return Cell!
}
ActionCell:
extension ActionCell: UICollectionViewDelegateFlowLayout, UICollectionViewDataSource {
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, numberOfItemsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return 3
}
func numberOfSections(in collectionView: UICollectionView) -> Int {
return 1
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, cellForItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UICollectionViewCell {
let cell = collectionView.dequeueReusableCell(withReuseIdentifier: "ActionCell", for: indexPath) as! ActionsCollectionViewCell
var Labels = ["РАСПИСАНИЕ", "ДОМАШНИЕ ЗАДАНИЯ", "ОЦЕНКИ"]
var Icons = ["Safari", "DZ", "Rating"]
var Colors = [UIColor.init(red: 26/255, green: 196/255, blue: 234/255, alpha: 1),
UIColor.init(red: 251/255, green: 143/255, blue: 25/255, alpha: 1),
UIColor.init(red: 251/255, green: 25/255, blue: 118/255, alpha: 1)]
cell.Title.text = Labels[indexPath.item]
cell.Icon.image = UIImage.init(named: Icons[indexPath.item])
cell.Button.backgroundColor = Colors[indexPath.item]
return cell
}
}
Also, I have to notice that in Storyboard i mentioned all classes and ReuseIDs

If you're using 'UITableView' with Static Cells as a content you don't need to implement 'tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath)' everything can be defined in Storyboard.
Here's how the UITableViewController would look like in storyboard, using custom cells (TableCell, CollectionCell) both for table and collection view, and having 'UITableViewCell'
act as a data source for containing 'UICollectionView':
And here's UITableViewController implementation:
class ViewController: UITableViewController {
}
class TableCell: UITableViewCell {
}
class CollectionCell: UICollectionViewCell {
}
extension TableCell: UICollectionViewDataSource {
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, cellForItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UICollectionViewCell {
let cell = collectionView.dequeueReusableCell(withReuseIdentifier: "collectionCell", for: indexPath)
return cell
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, numberOfItemsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return 1
}
}
