How to Set CustomView in UITableViewCell with Swift

Are you struggling with displaying a CustomView in your UITableViewCell? You're not alone! This is a common issue developers face when working with UITableView in Swift. In this post, we will look into a detailed approach to properly implement a CustomView in a UITableViewCell, ensuring your product data is displayed correctly.

Understanding the Problem

The main problem arises when you find that your cells show the original ProductView.xib with empty data. This usually happens due to improper handling of cell reuse and view initialization. Let's walk through the key issues and how to resolve them effectively.

Common Issues

Cell Reuse: When you scroll through the UITableView, cells are reused, meaning that if you create a new instance of ProductView every time in cellForRowAt, your cells will not update the data correctly upon reuse.

Incorrect Frame Setting: Setting productView.frame using self.bounds immediately after instantiation will lead to incorrect placement since its bounds will be initialized to zero.

Method Signature Error: The function that creates a ProductView needs to return the correct type, and an inconsistency in the function signature can lead to compilation errors.

A Better Solution

To rectify these issues, we can restructure our code as follows:

Adjusting ProductTableViewCell

Modify your ProductTableViewCell class to hold a single instance of ProductView and provide an update method:

Updating Cell Data

In your cellForRowAt method, instead of creating a new view, simply call the update method to refresh the cell's data:

Fixing the ProductView NIB Loading

Update the commonInit() function in ProductView to ensure the NIB file is loaded correctly:

Considerations

XIB Configuration: Ensure you have an XIB file named ProductView in your project and that its file owner is set correctly.

Initialization: Correctly load resources and set constraints to prevent incorrect layout during initialization.

Conclusion

By addressing these common issues and restructuring your code as illustrated above, you will significantly enhance the performance and accuracy of your UITableViewCell when displaying custom views. Now you can effectively show your product data in a more efficient manner.
