How to set UIImageView.image property in UITableViewCell

Question

I am having a problem trying to show an array of images on each cell, for a tableview.

I have a separate

TableViewCell

Swift file where I have a

UIImage

on the cell linked up. The outlet is named:

CellVenueImage

For some reason when I try to implement the image on my TableView view controller, I get an error that says:

Value of type 'TableViewCell' has no member 'CellVenueImage'

Here is the line in which that happens:

cell.CellVenueImage.image = imagename

Using Swift 3.

Here is the code for the TableView:

import UIKit



class VenueTableViewController: UITableViewController {





let VenueImageList = ["1970s.png","1980s.png","1990s.png"]



override func viewDidLoad() {

    super.viewDidLoad()





}



override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {

    super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()

    // Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.

}



// MARK: - Table view data source



override func numberOfSections(in tableView: UITableView) -> Int {

    return 1

}



override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {

    return VenueImageList.count

}





override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {

    let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "VenueCell", for: indexPath) as! TableViewCell



    let imagename = UIImage(named: VenueImageList[indexPath.row])

    cell.CellVenueImage.image = imagename



    return cell

}

TableViewCell code:

import UIKit



class VenuesTableViewCell: UITableViewCell {



@IBOutlet weak var CellVenueImage: UIImageView!



override func awakeFromNib() {

    super.awakeFromNib()

    // Initialization code

}



override func setSelected(_ selected: Bool, animated: Bool) {

    super.setSelected(selected, animated: animated)



    // Configure the view for the selected state

}

The mistake is, that you're not using your created TableViewCell Subclass, you are using a regular UITableViewCell.

let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "VenueCell", for: indexPath) as! TableViewCell

You need to cast it as your UITableViewCell subclass.

If it is called "VenuesTableViewCell", for example: class VenuesTableViewCell: UITableViewCell {, then cast it as VenuesTableViewCell.

let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "VenueCell", for: indexPath) as! VenuesTableViewCell
