Swift - Cannot pass dictionary into custom cell - ios

Question

I have a controller which has a table with four cells. Each of these custom cells contain another table, in which I display row data.
Take a look at the screenshot:
Here is how I init custom cell and pass data to it:
func tableView(tableView: UITableView!, cellForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath!) -> UITableViewCell! {
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier("DashCell", forIndexPath: indexPath) as! DashCell
cell.dictionary = dataArray[indexPath.row] as Dictionary!
cell.sectionTitle = sectionTitles[indexPath.row]
cell.titlesArray = columnTitles[indexPath.row]
return cell
}
And here is my custom cell code:
#objc(DashCell) class DashCell: UITableViewCell, UITableViewDelegate, UITableViewDataSource {
#IBOutlet weak var tableViewInsideCell: UITableView!
var dictionary: Dictionary<String, String>?
var sectionTitle: String?
var titlesArray: Array<String>?
var screenWidth: CGFloat!
var data: Array<String> = []
override init(style: UITableViewCellStyle, reuseIdentifier: String!) {
super.init(style: style, reuseIdentifier: reuseIdentifier)
}
required init(coder aDecoder: NSCoder) {
println("Dictionary in cell \(dictionary)")
let firstColumn: String = dictionary!["FirstColumn"]!
let secondColumn: String = dictionary!["SecondColumn"]!
let thirdColumn: String = dictionary!["ThirdColumn"]!
let fourthColumn: String = dictionary!["FourthColumn"]!
let fifthColumn: String = dictionary!["FifthColumn"]!
var sixthColumn: String? = dictionary!["SixthColumn"]!
var sevenColumn: String? = dictionary!["SeventhColumn"]!
data.append(firstColumn)
data.append(secondColumn)
data.append(thirdColumn)
data.append(fourthColumn)
data.append(fifthColumn)
if sixthColumn != nil {
data.append(sixthColumn!)
}
if sevenColumn != nil {
data.append(sevenColumn!)
}
super.init(coder: aDecoder)
}
override func awakeFromNib() {
super.awakeFromNib()
screenWidth = UIScreen.mainScreen().bounds.size.width
}
override func setSelected(selected: Bool, animated: Bool) {
super.setSelected(selected, animated: animated)
}
func addTitleLabel(text: String, withOffset offset: CGFloat) -> UILabel {
var label: UILabel = UILabel(frame: CGRectMake(15 + offset, 23, screenWidth / CGFloat(titlesArray!.count), 17))
label.font = UIFont.boldSystemFontOfSize(10.0)
label.numberOfLines = 1
label.backgroundColor = UIColor.clearColor()
label.textAlignment = NSTextAlignment.Left
label.text = text
return label
}
func addRowLabel(text: String, withOffset offset: CGFloat) -> UILabel {
var label: UILabel = UILabel(frame: CGRectMake(15 + offset, 2, screenWidth / CGFloat(data.count) - 10, 17))
label.font = UIFont.systemFontOfSize(9.0)
label.numberOfLines = 1
label.backgroundColor = UIColor.clearColor()
label.textAlignment = NSTextAlignment.Left
label.text = text
return label
}
func numberOfSectionsInTableView(tableView: UITableView) -> Int {
return 1
}
func tableView(tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return 8
}
func tableView(tableView: UITableView, viewForHeaderInSection section: Int) -> UIView? {
var headerView: UIView = UIView()
var sectionTitleLabel: UILabel = UILabel(frame: CGRectMake(15, 3, screenWidth, 20))
sectionTitleLabel.font = UIFont.systemFontOfSize(14.0)
sectionTitleLabel.numberOfLines = 1
sectionTitleLabel.backgroundColor = UIColor.clearColor()
sectionTitleLabel.textAlignment = NSTextAlignment.Left
var lableText: String = sectionTitle!
sectionTitleLabel.text = lableText.uppercaseString
sectionTitleLabel.textColor = UIColor(red: 110 / 255.0, green: 110 / 255.0, blue: 115 / 255.0, alpha: 1.0)
sectionTitleLabel.text!.uppercaseString
headerView.addSubview(sectionTitleLabel)
var offset: CGFloat = screenWidth / CGFloat(titlesArray!.count)
for var j: Int = 0; j < titlesArray!.count; j++ {
let headerLabel: UILabel = self.addTitleLabel(titlesArray![j], withOffset: offset * CGFloat(j))
headerView.addSubview(headerLabel)
}
return headerView
}
func tableView(tableView: UITableView, heightForHeaderInSection section: Int) -> CGFloat {
return 40
}
func tableView(tableView: UITableView, heightForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> CGFloat {
return 22
}
func tableView(tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
var CellIdentifier: String = "Cell"
var cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier(CellIdentifier) as? UITableViewCell
if cell == nil {
cell = UITableViewCell(style: UITableViewCellStyle.Value1, reuseIdentifier: CellIdentifier)
}
var offset: CGFloat = screenWidth / CGFloat(data.count)
for var j = 0; j < data.count; j++ {
let string: String = data[j] as String
var label: UILabel = self.addRowLabel(string, withOffset: offset * CGFloat(j))
cell!.contentView.addSubview(label)
}
return cell!
}
The problem is that dictionary variable always comes nil, although sectionTitle and titlesArray are filled with data. Why is it so?
[UPDATE] The dictionary is set like this in parent view controller in viewDidLoad:
var one: Dictionary<String, String> = ["FirstColumn" : "R-L-1776-07-2015-1", "SecondColumn" : "Aaron Bloch", "ThirdColumn" : "$5,000.00", "FourthColumn" : "153 E 32 STREET", "FifthColumn" : "Open"]
var two: Dictionary<String, String> = ["FirstColumn" : "R-L-1776-07-2015-4", "SecondColumn" : "Test User", "ThirdColumn" : "$500.00", "FourthColumn" : "635 W 42nd St", "FifthColumn" : "Yes"]
var three: Dictionary<String, String> = ["FirstColumn" : "Bruno", "SecondColumn" : "Ricciotti", "ThirdColumn" : "bruno#bondnewyork.com", "FourthColumn" : "917-699-7151", "FifthColumn" : "Some text"]
var four: Dictionary<String, String> = ["FirstColumn" : "#448438", "SecondColumn" : "Resid. Rent", "ThirdColumn" : "$345.00", "FourthColumn" : "Studio", "FifthColumn" : "1", "SixthColumn" : "Hamilton Heights", "SeventhColumn" : "Aaron Bloch"]
dataArray = [one, two, three, four]
dataArray is inited like this:
var dataArray: Array<Dictionary<String, String>> = []
