带Swift的TableViewCell侦听器

Question

Good Evening!

I have a specific question about Xcode (Swift) and the TabelView Layout.

My App has until now 1 View within a Container in this Container is a UITableViewController embeded which shows a nice static table view.

My mistake is how I can register when a User click on one of this table view cells?

The method:

override func tableView(tableView: UITableView, didSelectRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) {
     //CODE TO BE RUN ON CELL TOUCH
}

doesnt work for me - the method is not called, an alert inside of this method is not shown.

Perhaps a false file structure? In my main storyboard I connected a Swift file with the UITableViewController which is inside of the container of the main view controller. Code of the File ist the basic:

import UIKit

class test: UITableViewController {

    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
    }

    override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
        super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
    }

}

How can I register when a User click on a TableViewCell? For example showing an alert?

Please help me, I'm really new in iOS development.

Thanks!

Here are two pictures of my project-structure:

Answer 1

A functioning table view requires three table view data source methods. make sure to add them .

func numberOfSectionsInTableView(tableView: UITableView) -> return Int number of section 
func tableView(tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) ->return Int number of rows in section 
func tableView(tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> return UITableViewCell that populate the cell data 

hope it help !!

Answer 2

A really silly mistake... The code was absolutely correct - the problem was in the main.swift file, the file within the container.

Above the container I've added a searchBar and used the following code to hide the keyboard by clicking outside the searchbar: https://stackoverflow.com/a/27079103/3849220

This code crashed my touch Events in the whole View - also "above" the container... dismissKeyboard() was called before the tableView function.

@Paulw11 A big thank you for your example project! It helps me really much to understand the logic and searching the mistake. Thank you!

I replaced the code and write a little own script that hide the keyboard by clicking a "done" button. Now it works!

Thanks at all!
