Adding subviews to UITableViewCells causing issue while scrolling - objective-c

I'm absolutely stumped on how to fix this issue.
So I have a UITableView and in the delegate method cellForRowAtIndex: I'm adding several subviews to each cell if the cell is nil (the initial building of the table view). Everything works well and the table view is built, however, when I scroll down a little in the application, the app all of a sudden crashes with SIGBART and gives me the error
* Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: '+[NSIndexPath setImage:]: unrecognized selector sent to class 0x3c361e68'** It's weird because I'm not even calling a setImage method anywhere in my code.
Here is the code for the delegate method.
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView
cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
static NSString *CellIdentifier = #"Cell";
UIImageView* imageView;
UILabel* ttitle;
UILabel* ttitle2;
UILabel* ttitle3;
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
if (cell == nil) {
cell = [[[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier] autorelease];

// whatever row or section the cell is in, since it is only executed
// once when the cell is first created.

The problem is that your local variables are not being initialized when the cell is re-used. Here's the current flow for imageView:
UIImageView* imageView;
if (cell == nil)
{
// Create imageView
imageView=...
}
// If cell is being reused (ie cell is not nil) then imageView is nil at this point.
imageView.image=...
When you are reusing a table view cell, tableView:dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier: returns an actual cell instead of nil and the initialization of imageView is skipped.
You need to "find" the imageView that is in the reused cell in order to make changes to it.
Therefore, I suggest that you modify your logic like this:
UIImageView* imageView;
if (cell == nil)
{
// Create imageView
imageView=...
}
else
{
imageView = // get a reference to the imageView
}
imageView.image=...
So now, of course, the question is "how?".
A very common way is to set the tag of the view when you create it so that you can easily retrieve it at a later time. You would use this technique like this:
// Use a unique tag number for each subview.
#define MY_IMAGEVIEW_TAG 1000
UIImageView* imageView;
if (cell == nil)
{
// Create imageView
imageView=... // Same as before
imageView.tag = MY_IMAGEVIEW_TAG;
}
else
{
// This is a cell that is being re-used and was previously created.
// Retrieve a reference to the existing image view that is already in the cell
imageView = [cell viewWithTag:MY_IMAGEVIEW_TAG];
}
// Now imageView is "safe" to use whether it is a new cell or one that is reused!
imageView.image=...
NOTE: If you are doing a lot of this, creating a UITableViewCell subclass that has properties for each of these subviews would make the use of tags and viewWithTag unnecessary, as well as make your code easier to read.

#Inafziger has already posted the correct answer to this question, I just want to explain a little bit more in detail why you're seeing this "weird" crash.
I wouldn't recommend the excessive usage of tags, though. It might be a better idea to create a subclass of UITableViewCell.
You're not initializing your imageView and ttitle variables:
UIImageView *imageView; // imageView can point to anything now!
UILabel* ttitle;
Usually, you'd initialize local variables to nil or 0 (whatever makes sense) when you declare them to avoid such dangling pointers.
Because you're reusing your table view cells cell won't always be nil and your if-clause won't be executed:
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
if (cell == nil) { // Won't be executed if the cell could be dequeued!
...
imageView = ...;
}
Hence, if cell can be dequeued, your imageView and ttitle variables have still not been assigned to anything when you use them!
You're then setting the attributes of the views:
imageView.image=[UIImage imageWithData:[NSData dataWithContentsOfURL:[NSURL URLWithString:[[data objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] valueForKey:#"thumbnail"]]]];
[ttitle setText:[[data objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] valueForKey:#"name"]];
[ttitle2 setText:[[data objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] valueForKey:#"content"]]
imageView.image = ...; is the same as calling [imageView setImage:...];. You can read more about that here: http://www.cocoacast.com/cocoacast/?q=node/103
And that's when all comes together: imageView isn't initialized and you're calling -setImage: on it. Boom, crash!
In your case imageView points to the NSIndexPath class. This could be anything, though.
Because of that you're effectively calling -setImage: on the NSIndexPath class (equivalent to: +[NSIndexPath setImage:]) and the app crashes with the +[NSIndexPath setImage:]: unrecognized selector sent to class 0x3c361e68 error message.

How to change one UITableViewCell when it is touched

I have a table view cell with multiple images in them. When touching the images they shold display an overlay on top of the image which tells the user that this image was selected.
Is there a way to change the look of just one UITableViewCell without having to do a [tableView reloadData] which would allow me to style the cell differently in the table view datasource delegate method.
The way I would do it is to subclass UITableViewCell and then on tableView:didSelectRowAtIndexPath: get a reference to the cell and do whatever you want to it (or just target the image touch event if this is not a selection).
There might be another way of doing this without having to subclass, but I find myself subclassing UITableViewCell all the time and it's pretty straightforward to do.
If you wish to avoid subclassing, this can be achieved with gesture recognisers. Your question suggests a Tap and Hold user interaction on each image, which I have implemented in the code below. One point to remember, if the user is tapping and holding, they may not see the text you wish them to see.
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
static NSString *cellIdentifier = #"ImageCell";
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:cellIdentifier];
if (!cell) {
cell = [[[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:cellIdentifier] autorelease];
}
UILongPressGestureRecognizer *recognizer = [[UILongPressGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(imageTapped:)];
UILongPressGestureRecognizer *recognizer2 = [[UILongPressGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(imageTapped:)];
UIImageView *imageView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"Ben.png"]];
imageView.frame = CGRectMake(cell.contentView.bounds.origin.x,cell.contentView.bounds.origin.y , 100, 40);
imageView.userInteractionEnabled = YES;
[imageView addGestureRecognizer:recognizer];
[cell.contentView addSubview:imageView];
UIImageView *imageView2 = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"Steve.png"]];
imageView2.frame = CGRectMake(cell.contentView.bounds.origin.x + imageView.frame.size.width + 10,cell.contentView.bounds.origin.y , 100, 40);
imageView2.userInteractionEnabled = YES;
[imageView2 addGestureRecognizer:recognizer2];
[cell.contentView addSubview:imageView2];
[imageView release];
[imageView2 release];
[recognizer release];
[recognizer2 release];
return cell;}
- (void)imageTapped:(id)sender {
NSLog(#"%#", sender);
UILongPressGestureRecognizer *recognizer = (UILongPressGestureRecognizer *)sender;
if (recognizer.state == UIGestureRecognizerStateBegan) {
UILabel *label = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:recognizer.view.bounds];
label.text = #"Pressed";
label.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
label.tag = 99999;
label.textColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
[recognizer.view addSubview:label];
[label release];
}
else {
[[recognizer.view viewWithTag:99999] removeFromSuperview];
}
}
Hope this helps.

How to set UITableViewCell identifier in xcode?

I am getting a crash randomly when I select a cell in a UITableView in a viewcontroller in my project.
I think the problem is caused by the cells I am trying to reuse.
Here is the code.
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
[self reinitializeStrArray];
static NSString *CellIdentifier = #"cell";
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
if (cell == nil) {
cell = [[[UITableViewCell alloc]
initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault
reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier] autorelease];
}
cell.textLabel.text = [strArray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
return cell;
}
- (void)addStrTableToSubView{
strTable = [[UITableView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(20, 110, 280, 285)];
[strTable setDelegate:self];
[strTable setDataSource:self];
[self.view addSubview:strTable];
UILabel *label = [[[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(20, 83, 280, 28)] autorelease];
UIColor *myColor = [UIColor colorWithRed:(215 / 255.0) green:(145 / 255.0) blue:(0.0 / 255.0) alpha: 1];
label.backgroundColor = myColor;
label.font = [UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:24];
label.shadowColor = [UIColor colorWithWhite:0.0 alpha:0.8];
label.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentCenter;
label.textColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
label.text = [#"strings" capitalizedString];
[self.view addSubview:label];
[strTable selectRowAtIndexPath:scrollStrIndexPath animated:YES scrollPosition:UITableViewScrollPositionTop];
}
I create my table in XCode. So there is no UITableViewCell object in IB which has an identifier.
Is it possible to add this in code while creating the table?
Or is the problem somewhere else?
Thanks
When you get a EXC_BAD_ACCESS, usually means that there is an incorrect memory management (i.e. an object was improperly released). My suggestion is to enable the NSZombieEnabled environment variable: it will give you more information about what is the object that causes the problem. More info here.

My UITableView do not scroll

I cannot get my UITableView to load data as i am scrolling. I do have subview in the cell (two lines). It display the first screen correctly but when i scroll only the lines that is on the first screen displays, nothing to scroll.
I have two arrays cellArray1 (main line) and cellArray2 (second line) that I load data from.
I would very much appreciate help to solve this, possible, simple problem.
Here is what i think is relevant code for this question:
- (UITableViewCell *) getCellContentView:(NSString *)cellIdentifier
{
CGRect CellFrame = CGRectMake(0, 0, 300, 60);
CGRect Label1Frame = CGRectMake(10, 10, 290, 25);
CGRect Label2Frame = CGRectMake(30, 33, 270, 25);
UILabel *lblTemp;
UITableViewCell *cell = [[[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithFrame:CellFrame reuseIdentifier:cellIdentifier] autorelease];
//Initialize Label with tag 1.
lblTemp = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:Label1Frame];
lblTemp.backgroundColor = [UIColor orangeColor];
[lblTemp setFont:[UIFont fontWithName:#"American Typewriter" size:16]];
lblTemp.tag = 1;
[cell.contentView addSubview:lblTemp];
[lblTemp release];
//Initialize Label with tag 2.
lblTemp = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:Label2Frame];
lblTemp.backgroundColor = [UIColor orangeColor];
lblTemp.tag = 2;
[lblTemp setFont:[UIFont fontWithName:#"American Typewriter" size:13]];
lblTemp.textColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
[cell.contentView addSubview:lblTemp];
[lblTemp release];
return cell;
}
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
static NSString *CellIdentifier = #"Cell";
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
if (cell == nil) cell = [self getCellContentView:CellIdentifier];
UILabel *lblTemp1 = (UILabel *)[cell viewWithTag:1];
UILabel *lblTemp2 = (UILabel *)[cell viewWithTag:2];
lblTemp1.text = [cellArray1 objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
lblTemp2.text = [cellArray2 objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
tableView.backgroundColor = [UIColor orangeColor];
return cell;
}
The answer to this problem was that I had hard coded a parameter that dictate how many items that was loaded during my testing.
I just found the problem, i had hard coded a parameter that dictated how many items that was

			
				
Make sure you are adding to the correct view if you are creating programatically and adding as subview to main view.

UITableViewCell - overlapping with previous cells contents

I have this wierd problem with my table
i Have about 20 cells to display
Each cell is about 84px in height
When i click no the cell, i have set a background colour
The first 4 cells are ok, but when i scroll down and click on the 5th cell, the content of each cell starts to overlap with some other content, usually content from 1st 4 cells.
I belive its some cell reusability or drawing issue. Am not sure how to solve it, i have checked through my code, but i am not changing the cell's content on touch.

I figured it out with some trial and error; if this can help some one
In cellforRowAtIndexPath i tried to clear all the cells subview before drawing the cell
//TRY TO REMOVE ALL CONTENT
for(UIView *view in cell.contentView.subviews){
if ([view isKindOfClass:[UIView class]]) {
[view removeFromSuperview];
}
}
I would be happy if someone can point me to some easier way
Thanks
You can use
[[[cell contentView] subviews] makeObjectsPerformSelector: #selector(removeFromSuperview)];
If the cell in not nil, the above code will reduce the time for using the for loop similar to this
for(UIView *eachView in [cell subviews])
[eachView removeFromSuperview];
I also had the same issue.I also had composed tableView with labels.And when I scroll it down the contents got overlapped.But it got solved simply by editing one statement in cellForRowAtIndexPath.
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:nil];
I think this will solve your problem.
I know this is a bit late, but I had a similar issue where UILabels created for a cell were still part of the cell when it was reused. So each successive update of the tableview created another UILabel on top of the existing one. I moved the creation of the Labels into the if condition as below and it resolved my issue. Hope it helps someone else. Also note no release as I am using ARC.
static NSString *CellIdentifier = #"Cell";
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
if (cell == nil)
{
cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
cityText = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(10, 10, 100, 20)];
cityText.font = [UIFont fontWithName:#"Arial" size:20];
cityText.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentLeft;
cityText.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
regionText = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(10, 40, 100, 20)];
regionText.font = [UIFont fontWithName:#"Arial" size:20];
regionText.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentLeft;
regionText.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
}
Setting nil to label text on UITableViewCell subclass 's method prepareForReuse() solved my problem -
override func prepareForReuse() {
super.prepareForReuse()
self.label1.text = nil
self.label2.text = nil
....
}

UITableviewcell loading data issue

I parsed the XML data from a feed. I stored all data in NSArray. I loaded the images and title in UITableview using UILable. But when I use the scroll, the text will be collapsed as follows.
My code is as follows...
-(UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView1 cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath

I don't know how to solve this issue.
Every time the cell is reloaded, the UILabel is added.
Do something like
if (cell == nil)
{
cell = [[[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectZero reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier] autorelease];
CGRect frame = CGRectMake(70.0, 00.0, 250.0, 55);
valueField = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:frame];
[valueField setAutoresizingMask:UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleLeftMargin];
valueField.tag = 111;
valueField.font=[UIFont fontWithName:#"Helvetica" size:13.0];
valueField.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentLeft;
valueField.lineBreakMode=UILineBreakModeWordWrap;
valueField.numberOfLines = 0;
valueField.textColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
valueField.highlightedTextColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
valueField.baselineAdjustment = UIBaselineAdjustmentAlignCenters;
valueField.adjustsFontSizeToFitWidth = YES;
valueField.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithRed:0.0 green:0.0 blue:0.0 alpha:0.0];
[cell.contentView addSubview:valueField];
[valueField release];
}
valueField.text=[title1 objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
To be more specific, since you are dequeuing cells, when you call cellForRowAtIndexPath it potentially can return you a cell that was already created.
That cell already has a label created.
So all of the magic of creating and setting up the custom views in you cell should only be done when dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier returns a nil value
