Does not conform to UITableViewDataSource - Parse app - ios

Question

I'm using a UITableView in a ViewController connected to TodayViewController. I want to use data from my Parse database to load into the TableView.
Here is my TodayViewController class:
import UIKit
class TodayViewController: UIViewController, UITableViewDelegate, UITableViewDataSource {
#IBOutlet var InfoTableView: UITableView?
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
InfoTableView!.delegate = self
InfoTableView!.dataSource = self
loadParseData()
// Do any additional setup after loading the view.
}
override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
// Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}
func loadParseData() {
let query : PFQuery = PFQuery(className: "News")
query.orderByDescending("Headline")
}
func numberOfSectionsInTableView(tableView: UITableView) -> Int {
return 1
}
func tableView(tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return 10
}
func tableView(tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath, object: PFObject?) -> PFTableViewCell {
var cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier("NewCell") as! PFTableViewCell!
if cell == nil {
cell = PFTableViewCell(style: UITableViewCellStyle.Default, reuseIdentifier: "NewCell")
}
//Extract values from the PFObject to display in the table cell
if let Headline = object?["Headline"] as? String {
cell?.textLabel?.text = Headline
}
if let Subtitle = object?["SubtitleText"] as? String {
cell?.detailTextLabel?.text = Subtitle
}
return cell
}
This error crops up:
How do I solve the problem? Is there any mistake in the overall structure? Do request for more information if required.

Answer 1

Yes you are not confirm to protocol UITableViewDataSource because you don't have a required method
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UITableViewCell
So you need to inherit PFQueryTableViewController to use the methods you want
class TodayViewController: PFQueryTableViewController {
...
}

Answer 2

I think you have implemented all the delegate methods of tableview outside the main class, i mean there will be a open parenthesis { and the close parenthesis should be end of all the methods. try like this
import UIKit
class TodayViewController: UIViewController, UITableViewDelegate, UITableViewDataSource {
#IBOutlet var InfoTableView: UITableView?
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
InfoTableView!.delegate = self
InfoTableView!.dataSource = self
loadParseData()
// Do any additional setup after loading the view.
}
override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
// Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}
func loadParseData() {
let query : PFQuery = PFQuery(className: "News")
query.orderByDescending("Headline")
}
func numberOfSectionsInTableView(tableView: UITableView) -> Int {
return 1
}
func tableView(tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return 10
}
func tableView(tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath, object: PFObject?) -> PFTableViewCell {
var cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier("NewCell") as! PFTableViewCell!
if cell == nil {
cell = PFTableViewCell(style: UITableViewCellStyle.Default, reuseIdentifier: "NewCell")
}
//Extract values from the PFObject to display in the table cell
if let Headline = object?["Headline"] as? String {
cell?.textLabel?.text = Headline
}
if let Subtitle = object?["SubtitleText"] as? String {
cell?.detailTextLabel?.text = Subtitle
}
return cell
}
}
Hope this will help.
