Get Object attributes in tableviewcontroller - ios

Question

I'm just going to be crazy. I want to display some attributes from an object in a TableViewController.
To resume :
I've got a first screen with a list of different Aircraft. Each Aircraft is different and get 2 attributes (a name and an identification number). When i click on an aircraft i want to display its informations in a new view controller (here a TableViewController).
The only thing i get is an empty string... I don't understand how to do this.
Here my code for AircraftViewController.h (the list of different aircraft)
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
#import "AircraftInfoViewController.h"
#interface AircraftViewController : UITableViewController <AircraftInfoViewControllerDelegate>
#property (nonatomic, strong) NSMutableArray *aircraft;
#end
Here my code for AircraftViewController.m
#import "AircraftViewController.h"
#import "Aircraft.h"
#interface AircraftViewController ()
#end
#implementation AircraftViewController
{
NSString *_info;
}
- (id)initWithStyle:(UITableViewStyle)style
{
self = [super initWithStyle:style];
if (self) {
// Custom initialization
}
return self;
}
- (void)viewDidLoad
{
[super viewDidLoad];
}
- (NSInteger)numberOfSectionsInTableView:(UITableView *)tableView
{
// Return the number of sections.
return 1;
}
- (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section
{
// Return the number of rows in the section.
return [self.aircraft count];
}
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
AircraftCell *cell = (AircraftCell *)[tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:#"AircraftCell"];
Aircraft *aircraft = (self.aircraft)[indexPath.row];
cell.immatLabel.text = aircraft.immat;
return cell;
}
- (void)prepareForSegue:(UIStoryboardSegue *)segue sender:(id)sender
{
if ([segue.identifier isEqualToString:#"PickInfo"]) {
AircraftInfoViewController *aircraftInfoViewController = segue.destinationViewController;
aircraftInfoViewController.delegate = self;
aircraftInfoViewController.info = _info;
}
}
- (void)aircraftInfoViewController:(AircraftInfoViewController *)controller didSelectInfo:(NSString *)info
{
_info = info;
Aircraft *aircraft = [[Aircraft alloc] init];
// Here is my problem !
NSLog(#"String is %#", aircraft.name);
[self.navigationController popViewControllerAnimated:YES];
}
#end
Here my Aircraft Object
#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>
#interface Aircraft : NSObject
#property (nonatomic, copy) NSString *name;
#property (nonatomic, copy) NSString *immat;
#end
Here my AircraftInfoViewController.h (where i display info)
#class AircraftInfoViewController;
#protocol AircraftInfoViewControllerDelegate <NSObject>
- (void)aircraftInfoViewController:(AircraftInfoViewController *)controller didSelectInfo:(NSString *)info;
#end
#interface AircraftInfoViewController : UITableViewController
#property (nonatomic, weak) id <AircraftInfoViewControllerDelegate> delegate;
#property (nonatomic, strong) NSString *info;
#end
Here my AircraftInfoViewController.m
#import "AircraftInfoViewController.h"
#interface AircraftInfoViewController ()
#end
#implementation AircraftInfoViewController
{
NSArray *_infos;
NSUInteger _selectedIndex;
}
- (id)initWithStyle:(UITableViewStyle)style
{
self = [super initWithStyle:style];
if (self) {
// Custom initialization
}
return self;
}
- (void)viewDidLoad
{
[super viewDidLoad];
_infos = #[#"TEST"];
_selectedIndex = [_infos indexOfObject:self.info];
}
// self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = self.editButtonItem;
- (void)didReceiveMemoryWarning
{
[super didReceiveMemoryWarning];
// Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}
#pragma mark - Table view data source
- (NSInteger)numberOfSectionsInTableView:(UITableView *)tableView
{
return 1;
}
- (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section
{
return [_infos count];
}
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:#"AircraftCell"];
cell.textLabel.text = _infos[indexPath.row];
if (indexPath.row == _selectedIndex) {
cell.accessoryType = UITableViewCellAccessoryCheckmark;
} else {
cell.accessoryType = UITableViewCellAccessoryNone;
}
return cell;
}
- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
[tableView deselectRowAtIndexPath:indexPath animated:YES];
if (_selectedIndex != NSNotFound) {
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:
[NSIndexPath indexPathForRow:_selectedIndex inSection:0]];
cell.accessoryType = UITableViewCellAccessoryNone;
}
_selectedIndex = indexPath.row;
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:indexPath];
cell.accessoryType = UITableViewCellAccessoryCheckmark;
NSString *info = _infos[indexPath.row];
[self.delegate aircraftInfoViewController:self didSelectInfo:info];
}
#end
Thx for helping...

Answer 1

I don't exactly get your problem, but in your code you are:
//1. creating a new aircraft
Aircraft *aircraft = [[Aircraft alloc] init];
//2. this aircraft object is new and dose not have a name yet as you never assigned a name to it.
//3. this is why your log shows an empty string
NSLog(#"String is %#", aircraft.name);
Looks like you need to print the info:
NSLog(#"String is %#", _info);
But it will be helpful to help you if you could explain what you want to get better.
