Swift TableView for iOS - ios

Question

I have referred to this question, and tried to implement the various answers. I'm doing something dumb, as cellForRow is not being called, and I'm just getting a blank tableView. Are there other data source or delegate methods that I must override?
Thanks
class ViewController: UITableViewController {
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.
//tableView.delegate = self
//tableView.dataSource = self
tableView.registerClass(UITableViewCell.classForCoder(), forCellReuseIdentifier: "Cell")
//tableView.registerClass(MyTableViewCell.self, forCellReuseIdentifier: "Cell")
tableView.reloadData()
}
override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
// Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}
override func tableView(tableView: UITableView!, cellForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath!) -> UITableViewCell! {
println("cellForRowAtIndexPath")
println()
//variable type is inferred
var cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier("CELL") as? UITableViewCell
if !cell {
cell = UITableViewCell(style: UITableViewCellStyle.Value1, reuseIdentifier: "CELL")
}
cell!.textLabel.text = "Text Label"
cell!.detailTextLabel.text = "Detail Text Label"
return cell
}
}
UPDATE - The following appears to work.. Thanks for the help!!
class ViewController: UITableViewController, UITableViewDataSource, UITableViewDelegate {
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.
//tableView.delegate = self
//tableView.dataSource = self
tableView.registerClass(UITableViewCell.classForCoder(), forCellReuseIdentifier: "Cell")
//tableView.registerClass(MyTableViewCell.self, forCellReuseIdentifier: "Cell")
tableView.reloadData()
}
override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
// Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}
override func tableView(tableView: UITableView!, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return 10
}
override func tableView(tableView: UITableView!, cellForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath!) -> UITableViewCell! {
println("cellForRowAtIndexPath")
println()
//variable type is inferred
var cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier("CELL") as? UITableViewCell
if !cell {
cell = UITableViewCell(style: UITableViewCellStyle.Value1, reuseIdentifier: "CELL")
}
cell!.textLabel.text = "Text Label"
cell!.detailTextLabel.text = "Detail Text Label"
return cell
}
}

Here is working code. No need to register cell in -viewDidLoad(). Also UITableView is added as subview in Storyboard.
If someone has this kind of requirement.
import UIKit
class ViewController: UIViewController, UITableViewDelegate, UITableViewDataSource {
#IBOutlet weak var tableView: UITableView!
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
self.tableView.delegate = self
self.tableView.dataSource = self
}
override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
// Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}
func tableView(tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return 10
}
func tableView(tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
var cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier("CELL") as UITableViewCell?
if (cell == nil) {
cell = UITableViewCell(style: UITableViewCellStyle.Value1, reuseIdentifier: "CELL")
}
cell?.textLabel?.text = NSString(format: "%d", indexPath.row) as String
return cell!
}
}

You need to connect Delegate DataSource of TableView, both are connected with the tableview then can only NumberOfRowsInSection and CellForRowAtIndexpath called.
