Question

I’ve created a Custom Table View Controller in Xcode 4.2 and I’ve created a UITableView inside of a view in Storyboard. How do I link the UITableView (which doesn’t appear in my code) to my Custom View Controller?(which is a subclass of UITableViewController)

Answer 1

1. Drag an instance of UITableViewController from inspector to the stage in IB, storyboard.
2. Cmd+N and from templates, choose either an instance of NSObject class or UITableViewController.
3. If you chose NSObject in step 2, make sure to change NSObject to UITableViewController in the header file.
4. Save it as let’s say CustomTableViewController.
5. In IB, set the class of UITableViewController as CustomTableViewController.
6. In implementation of CustomTableViewController, you can get a pointer to the tableView by calling self.tableView.

Let me if any part is not clear.
