Question

I am using UILabel for custom cells in my UITableView. Heres all the code that I am using :

header file:

UILabel *timeLabels;
@property (nonatomic, retain) UILabel *timeLabels;

code file:

- (id)initWithFrame:(CGRect)frame reuseIdentifier:(NSString *)reuseIdentifier

    timeLabels=[[UILabel alloc] init];
    timeLabels.textAlignment=UITextAlignmentLeft;
    timeLabels.font=[UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:12];
    timeLabels.backgroundColor=[UIColor clearColor];
    timeLabels.textColor=[UIColor blueColor];

- (void) layoutSubviews

   frame=CGRectMake(boundsX+5, 5, 60, 45);
   timeLabels.frame=frame;

---

[timeLabels release]

I am getting the following error on timeLabels.frame=frame;

2011-08-08 12:44:07.290 EncameoApp[2014:707] -[NSCFString setFrame:]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x136890
2011-08-08 12:44:07.361 EncameoApp[2014:707] *** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: '-[NSCFString setFrame:]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x136890'

Which is pretty strange given that timeLabels is not a NSString, but rather a UILabel !

Can anyone please let me know what I missed here ? Thanks.

I also faced this kind of problem, but i had solved this problem by set value of timeLabels as following:-

timeLabels.text = @"value";

instead of

timeLabels = @"value";
