2 label in UITableViewCell without customizing cell

Question

I want to put two text label in one cell. I used the Json to show data from server and I want to show first title then the text below on( not subtitle).

this is my code:

- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
    static NSString *CellIdentifier = @"Cell";


    UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier forIndexPath:indexPath];

    // Configure the cell...

    City * cityObject;
    cityObject = [ citiesArry objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
    cell.textLabel.text = cityObject.cityState;
    cell.textLabel.text = cityObject.cityPopulation;
}

Answer 1

Is the cell designed in a storyboard or NIB? If so you can either make that cell style to be subtitle or add the two labels there to the contentView. Assign them unique tags so you can query them in the cellForRowAtIndexPath: method and set their text.

If you do not have storyboards or NIB designing the cell then something like the following should work.

- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{

   static NSString *CellIdentifier = @"CustomCell";
   UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];

   if (!cell)
   {
       cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleSubtitle reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier]
   }

   // Configure the cell...

   City * cityObject;
   cityObject = [ citiesArry objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
   cell.textLabel.text = cityObject.cityState;
   cell.detailTextLabel.text = cityObject.cityPopulation;
}

Nice and simple for this one..

Just create two labels and add them to the cell view. Eg..

UILabel* label1 = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:(CGRectMake(0, 0, 10, 50))];
    label1.text = cithObject.cityState;
    [cell addSubview:label1];

    UILabel* label2 = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:(CGRectMake(0, 0, 10, 50))];
    label2.text = cityObject.cityPopulation;
[cell addSubview:label2];
