Question

I have a tableview with an image in each cell. I’m pulling the data for each cell from a plist including textlabel detailtextlabel and image file name. i am using

cell.imageView.image = [UIImage imageNamed:IMAGE_KEY]; 

the IMAGE_KEY constant to set the image. But it doesn’t work. it DOES work if i just type the image file name in the message. I have double checked the file name that is stored in my plist and double checked the declaration inside of my constants file. Everything is spelled correctly. Is there a different way to use constants to set an image?

Answer 1

Do this:

 #define IMAGE_KEY "apple.jpg" // like this

Now:

 cell.imageView.image = [UIImage imageNamed:@IMAGE_KEY];

if

 #define IMAGE_KEY @"apple.jpg" // like this

Now:

 cell.imageView.image = [UIImage imageNamed:IMAGE_KEY];
