how to handle button click for each button in each row of UITableView - ios

Question

I have a UITableView (with a Custom class called CellModelAllNames for each row). Each Row has a Label and a button.
My question is: When btn_addRecording (i.e. the '+' button is clicked on any/each of the rows, how do I get the lbl_name.text, the label name shown, and show a pop up in the ViewController itself. I want to get additional information in the pop up and then save all the info (including the lbl_name to a database).
CellModelAllNames for each row layout:
import UIKit
class CellModelAllNames: UITableViewCell {
#IBOutlet weak var lbl_name: UILabel!
#IBOutlet weak var btn_addRecording: UIButton!
#IBAction func btnAction_addRecording(sender: AnyObject) {
println("clicked on button in UITableViewCell")
}
override func awakeFromNib() {
super.awakeFromNib()
}
override func setSelected(selected: Bool, animated: Bool) {
super.setSelected(selected, animated: animated)
}
func setCell(setBabyName: String) {
self.lbl_name.text = setBabyName
}
}
Here's the code of my ViewController:
import UIKit
class SecondViewController: UIViewController, UITableViewDelegate, UITableViewDataSource {
#IBOutlet weak var tbl_allNames: UITableView!
var arrayOfNames: [Name] = [Name]()
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
self.tbl_allNames.delegate = self
self.tbl_allNames.dataSource = self
self.tbl_allNames.scrollEnabled = true
}
override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
}
func tableView(tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
var cell:CellModelAllNames = self.tbl_allNames.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier("CellModelAllNames") as! CellModelAllNames
let name = arrayOfNames[indexPath.row]
cell.setCell(name.name)
println("in tableView, cellforRowatIndex, returning new cells")
return cell
}
func tableView(tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return arrayOfNames.count
}
func tableView(tableView: UITableView, didSelectRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) {
}
}

Answer 1

You can use standard UIKit methods to get the cell and its data:
func tappedButton(sender : UIButton) {
let point = sender.convertPoint(CGPointZero, toView: self.tableView)
let indexPath = self.tableView.indexPathForRowAtPoint(point)!
let name = arrayOfNames[indexPath.row]
// do something with name
}

Answer 2

You can add button action in your ViewController
1) In your function cellForRowAtIndexPath assign button's tag as index (ie. indexPath.row)
cell.btn_addRecording.tag = indexPath.row
2) Add target and action for your button :
cell.btn_addRecording.addTarget(self, action: "buttonPressed:", forControlEvents: .TouchUpInside)
3) Add action in ViewControler (ie. save info in database)
func buttonPressed(button: UIButton!)
{
// Add your code here
let name = arrayOfNames[button.tag]
}
