How to load Custom cell (Xib) in UITableview using Swift - ios

Question

Here's my code
func tableView(tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int
{
return 10
}
func tableView(tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UITableViewCell
{
var cell :UITableViewCell = tableView.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier("discovered") as UITableViewCell!
bluetoothlog.registerNib(UINib(nibName: "devicedet", bundle: nil), forCellReuseIdentifier: "discovered")
//NSBundle.mainBundle().loadNibNamed("devicedet", owner: nil, options: nil)[0] as UITableViewCell
cell = blucell
devname.text = peri[indexPath.row]
devstrength.text = signalstrength[indexPath.row]
bluetoothlog.backgroundColor = UIColor.clearColor()
return cell
}
I have tried with the above code and nothing is displayed in Tableview, please help me to change this code working
Thanks

Answer 1

Register your NIB with the reuse identifier:
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
tableView.registerNib(UINib(nibName: "devicedet", bundle: nil), forCellReuseIdentifier: "Cell")
}
Your cellForRowAtIndexPath would then instantiate the cell.
override func tableView(tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier("Cell", forIndexPath: indexPath) as! devicedet
return cell
}

Answer 2

the command registerNib should be called in ViewDidLoad, but not in each call of cell for row
what is 'bluecell'? In your call-back cellforTable.., you assign cell = blucell -> this can cause your problems.
Try this:
import UIKit
class YourViewController: UITableViewController, UITableViewDataSource, UITableViewDelegate {
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
//call register nib here!!
bluetoothlog.registerNib(UINib(nibName: "devicedet", bundle: nil), forCellReuseIdentifier: "discovered")
}
func tableView(tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int
{
return peri.count
}
//it seem that you have to add a è
func tableView(tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UITableViewCell!
{
let cell :UITableViewCell = tableView.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier("discovered") as UITableViewCell!
/* REMOVE THIS
bluetoothlog.registerNib(UINib(nibName: "devicedet", bundle: nil), forCellReuseIdentifier: "discovered")
//NSBundle.mainBundle().loadNibNamed("devicedet", owner: nil, options: nil)[0] as UITableViewCell
*/
//// THEN, UPDATE YOUR CELL with YOUR DATAs
/* I don't understand what are you doing with this line of code:
cell = blucell
*/
devname.text = peri[indexPath.row]
devstrength.text = signalstrength[indexPath.row]
//Seem that bluetoothlog is the tableview, you should call it in viewdidload or viewwillappear()
bluetoothlog.backgroundColor = UIColor.clearColor()
return cell
}
}

func tableView(tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UITableViewCell
{
var cell :devicedet = tableView.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier("discovered") as UITableViewCell!
bluetoothlog.registerNib(UINib(nibName: "devicedet", bundle: nil), forCellReuseIdentifier: "discovered")
//NSBundle.mainBundle().loadNibNamed("devicedet", owner: nil, options: nil)[0] as UITableViewCell
cell = blucell
devname.text = peri[indexPath.row]
devstrength.text = signalstrength[indexPath.row]
bluetoothlog.backgroundColor = UIColor.clearColor()
return cell
}

Answer 4

In viewDidLoad register XIB as shown below
var userDetailsNIB = UINib(nibName: "UserDetailsCell", bundle: nil)
viewListingTable.registerNib(userDetailsNIB, forCellReuseIdentifier: "UserDetailsViewCellID")
And in func tableView(tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UITableViewCell{
function use it by access it with Identifier which created in viewDidLoad method
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier("UserDetailsViewCellID") as UserDetailsViewCell
return cell

Answer 5

if you would like to Load custom cell(Xib) in UITableView in swift ,you may use the following code.
func tableView(tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return array.count; //This function returns number of rows in table view
}
func tableView(tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
var cell:YourTableViewCell! = tableView.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier("YourTableViewCell", forIndexPath:indexPath)as! YourTableViewCell
// Do additional code here
}
Don’t forget to register nib in viewDidLoad
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// registering your nib
let yourNibName = UINib(nibName: "YourTableViewCell", bundle: nil)
tableView.registerNib(yourNibName, forCellReuseIdentifier: "YourTableViewCell")
// Do any additional setup after loading the view.
}

Register xib Cell in Swift
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
tableView.register(UINib(nibName: "XibCell", bundle: nil), forCellReuseIdentifier: "Cell")
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "Cell") as! UITableViewCell
return cell
}

Answer 7

My code:
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
tableView.register(
UINib(nibName: "XibCell", bundle: nil),
forCellReuseIdentifier: "Cell"
)
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView,
cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "Cell")
return cell as! UITableViewCell
}

import UIKit
class ViewController: UIViewController, UITableViewDelegate, UITableViewDataSource {
//MARK:- Sample Data Array to load in TableView
let sampleArrray: \[String\] = \["val1", "val2", "val3", "val4", "val5"]
//MARK:- Cell reuse identifier
let cellReuseIdentifier = "cell"
//MARK:- UITableView outlet
#IBOutlet var tableView: UITableView!
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// Registering the custom cell
self.tableView.register(UITableViewCell.self, forCellReuseIdentifier: cellReuseIdentifier)
// Setting delegate and Datasourse as same viewcontroller (this code is not neccessory if we are setting it from storyboard)
tableView.delegate = self
tableView.dataSource = self
}
//UITableview required methods
func tableView(tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return sampleArrray.count
}
func tableView(tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let cell:UITableViewCell = tableView.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier(cellReuseIdentifier) as UITableViewCell!
cell.textLabel?.text = sampleArrray\[indexPath.row\]
return cell
}
func tableView(tableView: UITableView, didSelectRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) {
print("clicked at: \(indexPath.row)")
//Here u can get the selected cell and add action related to this cell seelction
}
Added Screenshot for setting Datasource and delegate from storyboard

Your fuction registerNib , you try to write in viewDidLoad() method and remove from cellForRowAtIndexPah and then test your project
Your Cell Instance should be of CustomCell instance and not of UITableView Cell.
var cell :UITableViewCell should be replaced by
var cell :devicedet
