How to getlcell.label.text value of uitableview cell in a string - uitableview

Question

I am making an app in which i am using tableview and in each table cell i am using checkboxes. now i am stuck in this place that when checkbox is checked i want to get value of that table-cell. like i am showing messages id in table cell i want to get messages_Id of that cells whose checkboxes are checked. means if select 1 checkbox its message id is store in NSString and if i select 2 checkboxes then 2 messages of these checkboxes are store in string how it can be done.below is my sample code of tableview and check boxes action
-(UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath{
static NSString *tableviewidentifier = #"cell";
__block tablecellTableViewCell *cell= [self.activitiesTableView_ dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:tableviewidentifier];
if(cell==nil)
{
cell = [[tablecellTableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleSubtitle reuseIdentifier:tableviewidentifier];
}if(indexPath.row == [self tableView:tableView numberOfRowsInSection:indexPath.section] - 1){
}
__block NSString *row = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%ld",(long)indexPath.row];
cell.titlename.text=[[self.inboxmessagesarray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row]objectForKey:#"offerTitle"];
tocity.text=[[self.inboxmessagesarray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row]objectForKey:#"toCity"];
fromcity.text=[[self.inboxmessagesarray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row]objectForKey:#"fromCity"];
date.text=[[self.inboxmessagesarray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row]objectForKey:#"messageDate"];
time.text=[[self.inboxmessagesarray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row]objectForKey:#"messageTime"];
[cell.button setBackgroundImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"uncheck.png"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[cell.button setImage:nil forState:UIControlStateNormal];
if ([self.checkimageArray containsObject:[self.lblArray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row]])
{
[cell.button setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"tick.png"]// here i am setting image
forState:UIControlStateNormal];
cell.contentView.backgroundColor=[UIColor colorWithRed:(245/255.0) green:(245/255.0) blue:(245/255.0) alpha:1];
}
else
{
cell.backgroundColor=[UIColor clearColor];
}
cell.button.tag=indexPath.row;
[cell.button addTarget:self action:#selector(checkButton:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
return cell;
}
and below is my check button code
-(IBAction)checkButton:(UIButton *)sender
{
CGPoint buttonPosition = [sender convertPoint:CGPointZero toView:self.tblvie];
NSIndexPath *indexPath = [self.tblvie indexPathForRowAtPoint:buttonPosition];
if ([self.checkimageArray containsObject:[self.lblArray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row]]) {
[self.checkimageArray removeObject:[self.lblArray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row]];
self.titleLabel.text=#"";
}
else {
[self.checkimageArray addObject:[self.lblArray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row]];
self.titleLabel.text=[NSString stringWithFormat:#"%ld selected",(long)sender.tag+1];
}
[self.tblvie reloadRowsAtIndexPaths:[NSArray arrayWithObject:indexPath] withRowAnimation: UITableViewRowAnimationFade];
}
and i want to get value of these checked boxes in this button
- (IBAction)menubtun:(id)sender {
}

there if want the cell info of selected cell, just handle the action method of tickButton in custom cell it self not in controller use below code define a protocol and define a delegate see the below code
in tablecellTableViewCell.h
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
#class tablecellTableViewCell;
#protocol CustomCellDelegate <NSObject>
- (void)checkBoxButtonSelected:(tablecellTableViewCell *)cell; //this is the custom delegate method
#end
#interface tablecellTableViewCell : UITableViewCell
#property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UIImageView *profileImageView; //i changed the name for conventions
#property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UIButton *tickButton;
#property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UILabel *nameLabel; //valuedate
#property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UILabel *messageLabel;
#property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UILabel *dateLabel;
#property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UILabel *timeLabel;
#property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UIActivityIndicatorView *activityIndicatorView;
#property (weak, nonatomic) id<CustomCellDelegate> cellDelegate; //decleare a delegate hear
- (void)setFont:(UIFont *)font withString:(NSString *)title;
#end
and in tablecellTableViewCell.m all code is same but u have to connect a action to tickButton for example
#import "tablecellTableViewCell.h"
#implementation tablecellTableViewCell
//#synthesize button,image;
- (id)initWithFrame:(CGRect)frame
{
self = [super initWithFrame:frame];
if(self)
{
}
return self;
}
- (void)awakeFromNib
{
// Initialization code
[super awakeFromNib];
[self setUp];
}
//...same code of yours no need to change just a action method of tick button is added extra
//in this call a delegate method by passing the entire cell itself
- (IBAction)checkButtonAction:(id)sender
{
if([self.cellDelegate respondsToSelector:#selector(checkBoxButtonSelected:)])
{
[self.cellDelegate checkBoxButtonSelected:self];//hear u are passing the enire cell to Fbinbox..controller
}
}
in the controller class .h file
//..same code just confirm to protocol
#interface inboxViewController : UIViewController<UITableViewDataSource,UITableViewDelegate,UIActionSheetDelegate,CustomCellDelegate> //confirm to protocol
{
int checkBoxesCount;
}
in .m file
-(UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
__block tablecellTableViewCell *cell= [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:tableviewidentifier];
if(cell == nil)
{
cell = [[tablecellTableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:tableviewidentifier];
}
if(indexPath.row == [self tableView:tableView numberOfRowsInSection:indexPath.section] - 1)
{
}
__block NSString *row = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%ld",(long)indexPath.row];
cell.activityIndicatorView.hidden = NO;
[cell.activityIndicatorView startAnimating];
if([[[self.inboxmessagesarray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row]objectForKey:#"messageRead"] intValue]==0)
{
cell.contentView.backgroundColor=[UIColor colorWithRed:(245/255.0) green:(245/255.0) blue:(245/255.0) alpha:1];
}
else
{
cell.contentView.backgroundColor=[UIColor clearColor];
}
cell.messageLabel.text = [[self.inboxmessagesarray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row]objectForKey:#"toCity"];
cell.cellDelegate = self;//add this one line
//... rest same code but comment the action method of tick button
//..hear in the last
cell.tickButton.tag = indexPath.row;
// [cell.tickButton addTarget:self action:#selector(checkButton:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside]; //comemnt this line this tickbutton action is in custom cell
}
//now define custom delegate method
- (void)checkBoxButtonSelected:(tablecellTableViewCell *)cell //in this cell contains every thing including message and all
{
//hear u are getting the entire cell
//now u can get the all info stored in this cell
NSIndexPath *indexPath = [self.activitiesTableView_ indexPathForCell:cell];
if ([self.checkimageArray containsObject:[self.lblArray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row]]) {
[self.checkimageArray removeObject:[self.lblArray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row]];
//....other stuff's
//cell.textLabel.text;
//..all info present in the cell
}
else
{
[self.checkimageArray addObject:[self.lblArray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row]];
//..do other stuff
NSString *selectedMessage = cell.messageLabel.text;
//cell.textLabel.text;
//..all info present in the cell
NSLog(#"SELECTED MESSAGE->%#",selectedMessage);
}
[self.activitiesTableView_ reloadRowsAtIndexPaths:[NSArray arrayWithObject:indexPath] withRowAnimation: UITableViewRowAnimationFade];
