Unable to dequeue a cell with identifier

Question

Unable to dequeue a cell with identifier

here's the method causing the problem:

-(UITableViewCell *) tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
    static NSString *CellIdentifier = @"TableCell";
    TableCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier 
                                                      forIndexPath:indexPath];

    // Configure the cell...
    int row = [indexPath row];

    Books *book = [myBooks objectAtIndex:row];
    cell.bookName.text = book.bookName;

    return cell;
}

You can directly set the identifier using the storyboard like this.

From the documentation:

Important: You must register a class or nib file using the registerNib:forCellReuseIdentifier: or registerClass:forCellReuseIdentifier: method before calling this method.

You need to register the cell as a usable class for that identifier. Call this after you initialize your UITableView (probably in viewDidLoad)

[self.tableView registerClass:[TableCell class] forCellReuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier]

This assumes CellIdentifier has been moved somewhere where it can be accessed from here.

Try this:

-(UITableViewCell *) tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{

static NSString *CellIdentifier = @"TableCell";
TableCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];

if(!cell)
{
    cell = [[[TableCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleSubtitle reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier] autorelease];
}

// Configure the cell...
int row = [indexPath row];

Books *book = [myBooks objectAtIndex:row];
cell.bookName.text = book.bookName;

return cell;
}
