Question

I have UITableViewController which pop UIActionSheet when user click on a cell with accessoryType =UITableViewCellAccessoryDetailDisclosureButton;

Now the method -(void)actionSheet:(UIActionSheet *)actionSheet clickedButtonAtIndex:(NSInteger)buttonIndex { works fine, except, i dont know in which cell user clicked.

I could , for example, declare a property where I save selected cell in didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath { but I think there must be a better way.

If your table only have one section, you could store which row presented the action sheet in the tag, something like this.

- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView accessoryButtonTappedForRowWithIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
    NSString *title = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"Sheet for row %i", indexPath.row];
    UIActionSheet *sheet = [[UIActionSheet alloc] initWithTitle:title delegate:self cancelButtonTitle:nil destructiveButtonTitle:nil otherButtonTitles:@"Option 1", @"Option 2", nil];
    [sheet setTag:indexPath.row];
    [sheet showInView:self.view];
}

- (void)actionSheet:(UIActionSheet *)actionSheet clickedButtonAtIndex:(NSInteger)buttonIndex {
    int row = actionSheet.tag;
    NSLog(@"Selected actionSheet buttonIndex %i for row: %i", buttonIndex, row);
}

It’s probably the easiest way, but I wouldn’t say it’s the best way to do it.
