Question

I have UITableView.In that i have created custom cell with accessory button.Now by clicking on accessory button i want to create another view with edit cell functionality.For that how do i find the index path of that cell?and how do i pass the vales of that cell?

How do i call following method:

 - (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView accessoryButtonTappedForRowWithIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath 

Answer 1

First thing to note here is that when you use custom accessoryView in a cell then the tableView:accessoryButtonTappedForRowWithIndexPath: delegate method would not be called. You have to add some target/action to the button you are adding as the custom accessory and handle the tap action yourself. You should add the custom accessory something like this,

UIButton *accessory = ...; [accessory addTarget:self action:@selector(onCustomAccessoryTapped:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside]; ... cell.accessoryView = accessory; 

And in the onCustomAccessoryTapped: method you have to get the index path like this,

- (void)onCustomAccessoryTapped:(UIButton *)sender {      UITableViewCell *cell = (UITableViewCell *)sender.superview;     NSIndexPath *indexPath = [tableView indexPathForCell:cell];      // Now you can do the following     [self tableView:tableView accessoryButtonTappedForRowWithIndexPath:indexPath];      // Or you can do something else here to handle the action } 

Answer 2

The indexPath is passed as the second parameter to the method.
