I'm using a xib file to create the cells for a couple collection views on the main page of my IOS app. The cell created in the xib file contains 3 ImageView elements and I recently added a UILabel. After adding the UILabel element to the cell, I created an outlet to the controlling file. Thus allowing me access to the element from the UIViewController file. Now whenever I build and run the app I get the following error:
Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSUnknownKeyException', reason: '[ setValue:forUndefinedKey:]: this class is not key value coding-compliant for the key cell_Label.'
My initial research of the error lead me to the conclusion that I should delete the outlet to the label. Which makes no sense to me because then how will I control the label's content programmatically from the view controller? The only other conclusion I can come to is that I don't need an outlet for a UILabel. Can anyone explain or confirm my assumption? Here is the code to which I created the outlet and where the label.text is being called.
Global_CVCCell
class Global_CVCCell: UICollectionViewCell
{
@IBOutlet weak var cell_Label: UILabel!
@IBOutlet weak var imageView: UIImageView!
@IBOutlet weak var highlightIndicator: UIImageView!
@IBOutlet weak var selectionIndicator: UIImageView!
View Controller
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, cellForItemAt indexPath: IndexPath)
-> UICollectionViewCell
{
if collectionView == self.REDACTED
{
let myCell = collectionView.dequeueReusableCell(withReuseIdentifier: reuseIdentifier, for: indexPath as IndexPath) as? Global_CVCCell
myCell?.cell_Label.text = dataForREDACTED[indexPath.row].name
myCell!.backgroundColor = UIColor.red
myCell?.imageView.image = UIImage.circle(diameter: 15, color: randomizeColor())
return myCell!
}
Thanks for any help that y'all can provide!
