TableView Cells unresponsive
- by John Donovan
I have a TableView and I wish to be able to press several cells one after the other and have messages appear. At the moment the cells are often unresponsive. I found some coed for a similar problem someone was kind enough to post, however, although he claimed it worked 100% it doesn't work for me. The app won't even build. Here's the code:
-(UIView*) hitTest:(CGPoint)point withEvent:(UIEvent*)event
{
// check to see if the hit is in this table view
if ([self pointInside:point withEvent:event]) {
UITableViewCell* newCell = nil;
// hit is in this table view, find out
// which cell it is in (if any)
for (UITableViewCell* aCell in self.visibleCells) {
if ([aCell pointInside:[self convertPoint:point toView:aCell] withEvent:nil]) {
newCell = aCell;
break;
}
}
// if it touched a different cell, tell the previous cell to resign
// this gives it a chance to hide the keyboard or date picker or whatever
if (newCell != activeCell) {
[activeCell resignFirstResponder];
self.activeCell = newCell; // may be nil
}
}
// return the super's hitTest result
return [super hitTest:point withEvent:event];
}
With this code I get this warning: that my viewController may not respond to pointsInside:withEvent (it's a TableViewController).
I also get some faults: request for member 'visibleCells' in something not a structure or a union. incompatible type for argument 1 of pointInsideWithEvent, expression does not have a valid object type and similar. I must admit I'm not so good at reading other people's code but I was wondering whether the problems here are obvious and if so if anyone could give me a pointer it would be greatly appreciated.
