When I load my UITableViewController that populates with custom (xib) cells, my app crashes with error:
Could not cast value of type 'SwipeCellKit.SwipeTableViewCell' to 'GreenHarvestAlpha.ListCell'.
Yet, ListCell has the grandparent class SwipeTableViewCell.
If I don't downcast, class ListViewController won't connect to the custom cell (and I get buildtime errors that my custom cell's properties don't exist).
Custom cell
class ListCell: SwipeTableViewCell {
Swipe class (dequeues cell)
`class SwipeVC: UITableViewController, SwipeTableViewCellDelegate {
override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: K.cellSwipeIdentifier, for: indexPath) as! SwipeTableViewCell
cell.delegate = self
return cell }
func updateModel(at indexPath: IndexPath) {
//leave empty. override in CategoryVC & ListVC with delete from realm functionality
}
List class (crashes with downcast error):
class ListViewController: SwipeVC
override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let cell = super.tableView(tableView, cellForRowAt: indexPath) as! ListCell
Also, I'm already overriding prototype cells in another class and this process is working for that.
