TOPIC: Cell as a button?

Cell as a button? 1 year, 8 months ago #1

I have a table view that I use for editing a certain object which represents a football match. It has a few properties, and then it has two cells where the user should be able to select a team. I'm thinking when they click the button I want to push a new view controller where the user can select an existing team or create a new one.

Right now I have this code:

 
        SCTableViewCell *cell;
	cell = [SCTableViewCell cellWithText: @"Home Team"];
	cell.boundKey = @"homeTeam";
	cell.delegate = self;
	[teamSec addCell: cell];
	cell = [SCTableViewCell cellWithText: @"Away Team"];
	cell.boundKey = @"awayTeam";
	cell.delegate = self;
	[teamSec addCell: cell];

But when the didSelectCell: method is called, I'm not sure how to best differentiate the cells.

What would be the best way to solve this?

I guess what would be nice was to have a cell that could call a specific selector when selected.

I'm going to answer myself and say that perhaps subclassing SCTableViewCell with SCDateCell as an example is the best idea. I'd still love some input though.	skyfex OFFLINE Fresh Boarder Posts: 15 Karma: 1

You can use either the SCTableViewModelDelegate tableViewModel:didSelectRowAtIndexPath: method, or the SCTableViewCellDelegate didSelectCell: method. Also, please watch www.sensiblecocoa.com/video-tutorials/wa...iew-replacement.html for a tutorial on how to achieve this. Hope this helps	tarekskr OFFLINE Administrator Posts: 2402 Karma: 72

The problem with those methods was assigning arbitrary data to the cell, using the cell title to differentiate the cells seemed hacky. Subclassing has worked out alright though.	skyfex OFFLINE Fresh Boarder Posts: 15 Karma: 1

Using tableViewModel:didSelectRowAtIndexPath:, you can differentiate cells using the indexPath parameter. Furthermore, you can differentiate cells through setting their "tag" property (inherited from UIView).	tarekskr OFFLINE Administrator Posts: 2402 Karma: 72

Right, I had been using indexPath when using UITableViewController before, so I'm not sure why I didn't think of that. I guess I changed mindset to the SensibleTableView mindset too fast	skyfex OFFLINE Fresh Boarder Posts: 15 Karma: 1
