Swift: Table View - Signal SIGABRT - ios

According to my other thread, I have a signal SIGABRT error in my code. The code consists of:
A Storyboard with 1 TableView and 1 Table Cell included
A custom Tablecell class (TableViewCell_Prototyp), which is connected to the Storyboard by (strong) IBoutlets.
A View Controller class, which is described in the following.
My ViewController class is connected to 3 super-classes: UIViewController, UITableViewDelegate, UITableViewDataSource. In addition, there are 3 functions implemented. Can somebody find the mistake ?
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
}
i don't know what happens here. It was written by default so it should not cause any errors.
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return 1
}
i just want one table cell to be returned.
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell (withIdentifier: "picCell") as! TableViewCell_Prototyp
cell.shoutPic.image = #imageLiteral(resourceName: "Bildschirmfoto 2017-06-05 um 10.11.21")
cell.shoutText.text = "Hallooooooooo"
return cell
}
shoutPic and shoutText is connected to the TableViewCell_Prototype custom class by outlets.

When you have custom table cell classes registered for your tableView, it's better to dequeue them using dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier:for:), like so:
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "picCell", for: indexPath) as! TableViewCell_Prototyp

If this is all of your code, I would check that your prototype cell's identifier matches "picCell" exactly and that its class is set to TableViewCell_Prototyp
I think #Gereon is right that you need to dequeue with a different method.
Having the class TableViewCell_Prototyp is not enough -- you need to set it to the cell in the Storyboard file. Click on the cell in the storyboard and set it in the Identity tab.

My TableView datasource functions aren't being called and I don't know why

So I have a UITableView, the kind you drag into a view controller, not a tableviewController. I set the delegate property to self in the viewDidLoad:
searchTableView.delegate = self
searchTableView.isHidden = true
searchTableView.isUserInteractionEnabled = false
I added a prototype cell to it in storyboard with the identifier "SearchResultCell". Here's my tableview data source functions:
extension MapViewController: UITableViewDelegate, UITableViewDataSource {
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
searchCompleter.queryFragment = searchBar.searchTextField.text!
let completionResults = searchCompleter.results
return completionResults.count
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
searchCompleter.queryFragment = searchBar.searchTextField.text!
let completionResults = searchCompleter.results
print(completionResults)
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "SearchResultCell", for: indexPath)
cell.textLabel?.text = completionResults[indexPath.row].subtitle
return cell
}
}
Literally none of the code in these functions is being called. (Don't worry, the isHidden and isUserInteractionEnabled functions get switched before I called the table view functions, so that's not the problem)I think I'm somehow not connecting these functions to my specific UITableView, but I don't know what else to do aside from set the delegate to self which I've already done. Any suggestions as to how I can get these to be called are much appreciated!
Here is a picture of my view controller so you can see if the lack of constraints or positioning are an issue:
also You need to add
searchTableView.dataSource = self
You can also set both connections in the storyboard
but then, I think you have another problem - which is that I don't think you can have a UITableView embedded in a MapViewController - here's a discussion about someone else with the same issue Implementing UITable in MapView
I think your solution will be to use a UIViewController which contains both a Map and a Table - you can make it look identical to what you already have.
Make sure completionResults.count not equal 0.

Why is my tableView not being populated?

I'm trying to populate a basic tableview with sample data in code. Here's my ViewController:
import UIKit
class TableViewController: UIViewController, UITableViewDataSource, UITableViewDelegate {
#IBOutlet weak var postTableView: UITableView!
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return 4
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "postcell", for: indexPath)
cell.textLabel?.text = "title"
cell.detailTextLabel?.text = "detail"
return cell
}
}
Here is my storyboard
I'm sure that the name "postcell" is correct and that I've hooked up the tableView to the ViewController as a datasource and delegate.
When I run the code in the iOS simulator, no cells show up. This is what I see:
Here are the constraints on my stack view
stack view properties
I don't want to use UITableViewController
How do I get the table cells to appear?
If "postcell" is not a prototype cell from your storyboard, you need to register it in your viewDidLoad:
postTableView.register(UITableViewCell.self, forCellReuseIdentifier: "postcell")
If it is a XIB table view cell you would register it as follows:
postTableView.register(UINib(nibName: "NibName", bundle: nil), forCellReuseIdentifier: "postcell")
If you were to do it from storyboard, drag a prototype cell (or table view cell) onto your table view and in the reuse identifier call it "postcell" as shown here:
Make sure you have also done the following in your viewDidLoad:
postTableView.delegate = self
postTableView.dataSource = self
Of course, you'll also need:
func numberOfSections(in tableView: UITableView) -> Int {
return 1
}
in tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath)
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "postcell", for: indexPath) as postcell // add this line
Thank you #MrSaturn for pointing out in the comments that it's a problem with the stack view. In storyboard I had to change the stack view's alignment property from center to Fill.

Prototype UITableViewCell with other objects (UITextField, UISwitch)

I'm trying to make a UITableView that can support having different objects/elements inside it. Specifically, these elements are a UITextField and UISwitch.
The first problem:
The elements do not show up. They are placed in the prototype cell, which is then constructed inside the class I have set up. I have verified that the cell setup is working because I can change the words on each cell, but there are no elements within the cell.
Here is the code that constructs my cells right now:
public func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int{
return 1
}
public func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell{
let cell = UITableViewCell(style: UITableViewCellStyle.default, reuseIdentifier: "EmailCell")
return cell
}
Second problem (which might be solved along with the first):
I have no way of accessing the information in each UITextField or each UISwitch. How can I get this information from all cells that exist?
Thanks in advance for the help!
There are multiple things wrong with your code.
For custom cells you need to implement a custom UITableViewCell subclass. Here is an example:
import UIKit
class EmailCell: UITableViewCell {
#IBOutlet var customTextField: UITextField!
#IBOutlet var customSwitch: UISwitch!
}
After that, open your Storyboard and select the prototype cell. Change it's class to EmailCell in the Identity Inspector.
Also make sure to connect your ui elements to the #IBOutlets created earlier. See this StackOverflow post if you need help with #IBOutlet.
In the next step, change your tableView(_:, cellForRowAt:) implementation like this:
public func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell{
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "EmailCell", for: indexPath) as! EmailCell
// Configure your custom ui elements however you want
cell.customTextField.text = "somestring"
cell.customSwitch.isOn = true
return cell
}
Make sure your cells have reuse identifiers and you're using
tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: -Your cell Id- , for: indexPath) as? -Your Cell Class-
in your cell for row at index datasource method
next you can add targets to your cell text field / switch by doing this in your cell for row at index datasource method
cell.-your switch / text field-.addTarget(self, action: #selector(valueChanged(_:)), for: .valueChanged)
and you should subclass a uitableview cell to add the property / iboutlets
class YourTableViewCell: UITableViewCell {
#IBOutlet weak var yourSwitch: UISwitch!
}

Set TextLabel's text in tableViewCell

I am coming to you for a little issue I have, that might actually not be that complicated but that i have struggled about for now about an hour...
I defined a TableViewCell in a TableViewController. This TableViewCell has three UIImage and two textLabels. I implemented the following methods :
override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return fruits.count
}
(which in my sense defines the number of rows)
override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "friendListCell")
cellOutlet.nameTextLabel.text = fruits[indexPath.row]
return cell!
}
On this second method, the "cellOutlet" is an instance of the class that defines my cell, in which I modify one of the textLabel's text.
"fruits" is a simple array of Strings that are supposed to be displayed in every cell of my app one by one.
Compilation goes fine, but when accessing the page in question, the app crashes saying
unexpectedly found nil while unwrapping an Optional value
My question is the following :
Would you have any idea of what is done wrong in term of accessing my textLabel's text ?
Thanks in advance !
If you're using a custom TableViewCell class you have to
Set the class of the cell in Interface Builder to the custom class
Cast the cell accordingly in cellForRow... (assuming the name is MyTableViewCell)
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "friendListCell" for:indexPath) as! MyTableViewCell
Try to call
override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "friendListCell")
cell.nameTextLabel.text = fruits[indexPath.row]
return cell!
}
and also check "cell" should not be nil at the time of calling cell.nameTextLabel.text = fruits[indexPath.row]
Even if your custom UITableViewCell class (e.g. FruitsCell) has some labels, the standard UITableViewCell doesn't (apart from one, which is its 'label' property). In your code, the 'cell' property is of type UITableViewCell, which has no cellOutlet or nameTextLabel property to access.
If you set up your custom cell in IB, be sure to connect all your labels from IB with the code in your Swift-File, e.g. FruitsCell.swift, that contains the FruitsCell class.
Then cast the 'cell' in your ViewControllers delegate method as e.g. FruitCell instead of UITableViewCell. Only then you can access the labels of that class that you set up in IB.
override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
// casting to your Class
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "friendListCell") as! FruitCell
// accessing that Class' properties
cell.nameTextLabel.text = fruits[indexPath.row]
// returning cell of type FruitCell
return cell!
}

UITableView not displaying at runtime when embedded in a Container View

This is my first time using TableView's and I've already hit a road block.
I've got a View Controller with a Container inside. The Container View has an embedded Table View Controller. I have populated the table view controller using the below code. I have set the datasource and the delegate to the Table View Controller, set the Custom Class of the Table View controller to ORMTableVC and set the Table View cell Identifier to cellIdentifier.
My problem is at runtime the View Controller is just blank and I cannot see any Table lines or data.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
import Foundation
import UIKit
class ORMTableVC : UITableViewController {
let cellIdentifier = "cellIdentifier"
var Array = [String]()
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
Array = ["Reps", "Weight", "RPE", "Fatigue", "Potential Max", "Fatigue Weight"]
}
override func tableView(tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return Array.count
}
override func tableView(tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let Cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier(cellIdentifier, forIndexPath: indexPath)
Cell.textLabel?.text = Array[indexPath.row]
return Cell
}
}
StoryBoard Setup
Built App
After looking through many tutorials managed to fix this. Seemed like the code wasn't the issue it was the storyboard setup.
On the Table View Cell the identifier needed to be cellIdentifier not Cell.
