No data is showing up in my UITableView - ios

Question

My IBOutlet for songName is set up correctly, but for some reason
import UIKit
class QueueController: UITableViewController {
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
let testUser = Profile.init(username: "test", followers: [], following: [])
let songOne = Song.init(name: "S1", UWR: testUser.username, genre: "rock", artist: "s1")
var moreSongs = [Song]()
moreSongs = [Song(name: "gah", UWR: testUser.username, genre: "gahh", artist: "GAH")]
Queue.createQueue("2321x", creator: testUser, firstSong: songOne, additionalSongs: moreSongs)
}
override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
}
override func viewWillAppear(animated: Bool) {
super.viewWillAppear(animated)
tableView.reloadData()
}
override func tableView(tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return Queue.theQueue!.count
}
override func numberOfSectionsInTableView(tableView: UITableView) -> Int {
if let feed = Queue.theQueue {
return feed.count
} else {
return 0
}
}
func songIndex(cellIndex: Int) -> Int {
return tableView.numberOfSections - cellIndex - 1
}
override func tableView(tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let song = Queue.theQueue![songIndex(indexPath.section)]
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier("queueCell", forIndexPath: indexPath) as! QueueCell
//cell.textLabel?.text = song.name this doesnt work also
cell.songName.text = "asdad"
return cell
}
}
For my Queue class:
import UIKit
class Queue {
let creator:Profile!
let planetID:String!
let beginningSong: Song!
var feed:Array<Song>?
static var theQueue:Array<Song>?
init (id:String!, creator:Profile!, firstSong:Song!) {
self.planetID = id
self.creator = creator
self.beginningSong = firstSong
}
func addSong (song: Song) {
feed?.append(song)
}
static func createQueue (id:String!, creator:Profile!, firstSong:Song!, additionalSongs: [Song]) {
let temp = Queue(id: id, creator: creator, firstSong: firstSong)
for song in additionalSongs {
temp.addSong(song)
}
self.theQueue = temp.feed
}
}
Song class:
import UIKit
class Song {
let name:String!
let userWhoRequested:String!
let genre: String?
let artist: String?
init (name:String!, UWR:String!, genre:String?, artist:String?) {
self.name = name
self.userWhoRequested = UWR
self.genre = genre
self.artist = artist
}
}
class QueueCell: UITableViewCell {
#IBOutlet weak var songName:UILabel!
#IBOutlet weak var userPicture:UIImageView!
#IBOutlet weak var isCurrent:UIImageView!
}
The table view displays properly but no data shows up in my controller, and I'm not sure why. The reuse cell identifier is also correct. The data in viewDidLoad() is also in my app delegate's func application.
Thanks!

Answer 1

Your problem is with the feed inside your CreateQueue method, that was never initialized
And change
var feed:Array<Song>?
to
var feed = [Song]()
