Question

I’ve got a really annoying problem, and as much as I’ve searched, I can’t find the answer. My app is terminating when I try to view a TableView. The data source and delegate is set to the File’s owner, which implements the protocol.

The error I’m getting looks like this:

Finally, here’s the implementation file (SettingsController.m) of the SettingsController class:

I’m sure this is a trivial problem for a pro, but I come from a highly web-based background, and only dabbled in C a while a few years back. To be truthful, it’s hurting my head.

Thanks,

Answer 1

What is FirstViewController as referenced in this disconcerting log line? Could it be some leftover reference that Interface Builder is actually trying to instantiate instead of your SettingsController?
