Access UISwitch in Prototype Cell

Question

I'm trying to print on/off when the user changes the state of my UISwitch.

For example

- (IBAction)toggleSwitch:(id)sender {

    ChannelsTableViewCell* cell = (ChannelsTableViewCell *)[sender superview].superview;
    NSIndexPath *indexPath = [self.tableView indexPathForCell:cell];

    if (cell.localSwitch.on)
    {
        NSLog(@"On");
    }

}

When I run this it throws an error.

Answer 1

If you hook up the IBAction to the switch, you don't need to get the UITableViewCell to check for the switch's value. You can use the sender parameter from the IBAction. Hence:

- (IBAction)toggleSwitch:(id)sender {
    UISwitch *switch = (UISwitch *)sender;
    if (switch.on)
    {
        NSLog(@"On");
    }

}

If you need to find the indexPath at which the UISwitch is shown, you can add the following:

CGPoint pointInTable = [switch convertPoint:switch.bounds.origin toView:self.tableView];    
NSIndexPath *indexPath = [self.tableView indexPathForRowAtPoint:pointInTable];
