indexPath.row causing problems

[chewbocka]

I have a table view that's filled with custom cells. I can populate the table just fine and even zebra stripe the table (using indexPath.row % 2). However, when I click on any of the cells, the app crashes. Here's my didSelectRowAtIndexPath code in my table view controller:

- (void) tableView: (UITableView *) tableView
didSelectRowAtIndexPath: (NSIndexPath *) indexPath
{
    NSLog(@"row clicked: %@", indexPath.row);
}

All I'm trying to do is spit out the row that was clicked. If row 0 is clicked, indexPath.row gives me "null". Any other visible row results in an EXC_BAD_ACCESS error. Any ideas why the indexPath gets hosed between creating the cell and clicking the cell?

Added:
Once I figure out which cell was clicked, I want to push a view controller. Each cell will have different info so it's important that I figure out which row it was. I've also got a standard UITableView elsewhere in the app that doesn't have this problem. If I jump into the setSelected: animated function in my custom cell, I can also tell when the cell was clicked (and get it's ID) but an unsure of how to push the view controller from there as self.navigationController isn't defined in a UITableViewCell. Which is the "better" way to push the view controller?

I figured it out, I started grabbing the actual cell instead of the row and that seems to work. There's some other info that has to be attached to the cell (such as ID, etc) but it's all good. I found an example using custom cells here.

Did you tried without your NSLog statement wheather it is crashing or not.

Yep, it went down regardless. Either way, I'm good now.

actually your specifier is wrong. try

NSLog(@"row clicked: %i", indexPath.row)

that should work and tell you which row it is.

you can also customize the cell without subclassing. you can just add whatever you want to table view cell's content view

Apple has a tutorial on this

here is the customized table/cells in my app based on the tutorial i posted above (each news headline is a cell here with title, details, image and pointer (hand picture))
