cocoa-touchdidselectrowatindexpathiosuitableview
I'm writing an iOS app with a table view inside a tab view. In my UITableViewController, I implemented -tableView:didSelectRowAtIndexPath:, but when I select a row at runtime, the method isn't being called. The table view is being populated though, so I know that other tableView methods in my controller are being called.
Does anyone have any ideas what I may have screwed up to make this happen?
Any chance you accidentally typed didDeselectRowAtIndexPath?
I've had this error many times. While TechZen's answer is absolutely right in this case, another common cause is when you change the name of a IBOutlet property in your .h/.m which you've already connected up to File's Owner in the nib.
From your nib:
Under 'Referencing Outlets' make sure that your object isn't still connected to the old property name... if it is, click the small 'x' to delete the reference and build again.
Another common cause if you are using Storyboard, your UIButton might have more then one assignings (Solution is almost the same as for nib):
You will see that there is more than one assign/ref to this button. Remove one of the "Main..." greyed windows with the small "x":

Just in case someone made the same stupid mistake as I did:
Check out if the method name of what you expect of being
didSelectmay accidentally be gottendidDeselectin some way. It took about two hours for me to find out ...
