Why does UITableviewCell UINib init crash

Question

I am using UITableviewCell in view using UINib and adding it to contentView.

I don't get any error when I debug or test from testflight but Crashlytics has a lot of crashes

Let the table view create the cells for you by registering the nibs with the table view. This lets the table view only create the number of instances needed to fill the screen. For example:

class ViewController: UITableViewController {

    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
        
        // Assuming a nib exists named LocationFieldTableViewCell in the main bundle
        let nib = UINib(nibName: "LocationFieldTableViewCell", bundle: .main)
        
        tableView.register(nib, forCellReuseIdentifier: "my-id")
    }
    
    override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
        let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "my-id", for: indexPath) as? LocationFieldTableViewCell
        
        // configure cell
        
        return cell
    }

}

Read up on UITableView and how cell reuse works!

As far as the crash goes, you can probably get more information by following this guide https://developer.apple.com/news/?id=nra79npr

This will let you browse the code and see where it's crashing, likely something in the nib not decoding correctly - looking at the log (LocationFieldTableViewCell.swift:74), what's on line 74 of LocationFieldTableViewCell.swift? That's likely where the issue is.

actually i don't use teaableviewcell inside tableview. I am using like contentView.addSubview(locationCell) @Andrew Carter — OMANSAK, Nov 17 '22 at 06:50
and already checked https://developer.apple.com/news/?id=nra79npr but no more info — OMANSAK, Nov 17 '22 at 06:51
