since u are using the custom cell i think u need to handle selection also, because u are touching the button inside the custom cell not the cell itself therefore tableview delegate methods are not fired, better as i said in ur custom cell put a delegate method for example in ur custom cells
in your CellTypeOne.h
add this
//@class CellTypeOne; //if u want t pass cell to controller
@protocol TouchDelegateForCell1 <NSObject> //this delegate is fired each time you clicked the cell
- (void)touchedTheCell:(UIButton *)button;
//- (void) touchedTheCell:(CellTypeOne *)cell; //if u want t send entire cell this may give error add `@class CellTypeOne;` at the beginning
@end
@interface CellTypeOne : UITableViewCell
{
}
@property(nonatomic, assign)id<TouchDelegateForCell1> delegate; //defining the delegate
- (IBAction)actionForFirstButton:(id)sender;
- (IBAction)actionForSecondButton:(id)sender;
- (IBAction)actionForThirdButton:(id)sender;
- (IBAction)actionForFourthButton:(id)sender;
in your CellTypeOne.m
file
@synthesize delegate; //synthesize the delegate
- (IBAction)actionForFirstButton:(UIButton *)sender
{
//add this condition to all the actions becz u need to get the index path of tapped cell contains the button
if([self.delegate respondsToSelector:@selector(touchedTheCell:)])
{
[self.delegate touchedTheCell:sender];
//or u can send the whole cell itself
//for example for passing the cell itself
//[self.delegate touchedTheCell:self]; //while at the defining the delegate u must change the sender type to - (void)touchedTheCell:(CellTypeOne *)myCell; if it shows any error in the defining of the delegate add "@class CellTypeOne;" above the defying the delegate
}
}
and in your ViewContainingMyTableView.h
@interface ViewContainingMyTableView : UIViewController <UITableViewDelegate, UITableViewDataSource ,TouchDelegateForCell1> //confirms to custom delegate like table delegates
{
UITableView *myTBV;
}
@property (retain, nonatomic) IBOutlet UITableView *myTBV;
@end
and in the ViewContainingMyTableView.m
file
-(UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
//during the creating the custom cell
CellTypeOne *cell1 = [self.aTableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:@"cell"];
if(cell1 == nil)
{
cell1 = [[CustomCell alloc]initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:@"cell"];
}
cell.delegate = self; //should set the delegate to self otherwise delegate methods does not called this step is important
}
//now implement the delegate method , in this method u can get the indexpath of selected cell
- (void)touchedTheCell:(UIButton *)button
{
NSIndexPath *indexPath = [self.aTableView indexPathForCell:(UITableViewCell *)button.superview];
NSLog(@"%@",indexPath.description);
}
/* if u pass the cell itself then the delegate method would be like below
- (void)touchedTheCell:(CellTypeOne *)myCell
{
NSIndexPath *indexPath = [self.aTableView indexPathForCell:myCell];//directly get the cell's index path
//now by using the tag or properties, whatever u can access the contents of the cell
UIButton *myButton = [myCell.contentView viewWithTag:1000]; //get the button
//... u can access all the contents in cell
}
*/
in your case, this is for first button in the cell, add the delegate methods for each buttons having different functions, repeat above procedure for another buttons in the cell
hope u get this :) hapy coding
