Custom swipe function in UITableViewCell doesn't work - swipe

Question

I need to add the count in the uitableviewcell in a such a way that when I trigger the swipe function the count should be incremented in the corresponding cell and while tapping the count should be decremented.
(UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
UITableViewCell *cell = nil;
NSString *CellIdentifier = #"sample";
if (cell == nil) {
cell = [[[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectZero reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier] autorelease];
}
UISwipeGestureRecognizer *recognizer;
recognizer = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(handleTapFrom:)];
[self addGestureRecognizer:recognizer];
self.tapRecognizer = (UITapGestureRecognizer *)recognizer;
recognizer.delegate = self;
[recognizer release];
recognizer = [[UISwipeGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(handleSwipeFrom:)];
[self addGestureRecognizer:recognizer];
[recognizer release];
UILabel *cookieLabel = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(5,5, 120,30)];
cookieLabel.text = #"hello";
cookieLabel.font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:15.0f];
cookieLabel.textColor = [UIColor blackColor];
cookieLabel.backgroundColor = [UIColor redColor];
[cell.contentView addSubview:cookieLabel];
[cookieLabel release];
cell.selectionStyle = UITableViewCellSelectionStyleGray;
costLabel = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake( 200, 5, 230, 30)];
//costLabel.text = handleSwipeFrom:;
costLabel.font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:15.0f];
costLabel.textColor = [UIColor blackColor];
costLabel.backgroundColor = [UIColor greenColor];
[cell.contentView addSubview:costLabel];
[costLabel release];
[self setUserInteractionEnabled:YES];
return cell;
}

Answer 1

Don't add the UISwipeGestureRecognizer to the cell. Add it to the UITableView.
I used TISwipeableTableView as a base and modified it heavily to work correctly (they did their own touch handling, which resulted in a "weird, unnative" feeling)
- (void)didSwipe:(UIGestureRecognizer *)gestureRecognizer {
if ([MRUserDefaults sharedMRUserDefaults].isSwipeMenuEnabled) {
if (gestureRecognizer.state == UIGestureRecognizerStateEnded) {
CGPoint swipeLocation = [gestureRecognizer locationInView:self];
NSIndexPath *swipedIndexPath = [self indexPathForRowAtPoint:swipeLocation];
TISwipeableTableViewCell* swipedCell = (TISwipeableTableViewCell *)[self cellForRowAtIndexPath:swipedIndexPath];
if ([swipedCell isKindOfClass:[TISwipeableTableViewCell class]]) {
if (![swipedIndexPath isEqual:indexOfVisibleBackView]) {
[self hideVisibleBackView:YES];
[swipedCell revealBackView];
[self setIndexOfVisibleBackView:swipedIndexPath];
if (swipeDelegate && [swipeDelegate respondsToSelector:#selector(tableView:didSwipeCellAtIndexPath:)]){
[swipeDelegate tableView:self didSwipeCellAtIndexPath:[self indexPathForRowAtPoint:swipeLocation]];
}
}
}
}
}
}
- (id)initWithFrame:(CGRect)frame style:(UITableViewStyle)style {
if ((self = [super initWithFrame:frame style:style])) {
if ([MRUserDefaults sharedMRUserDefaults].isSwipeMenuEnabled) {
UIGestureRecognizer *swipeGesture = [[[UISwipeGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(didSwipe:)] autorelease];
[self addGestureRecognizer:swipeGesture];
}
}
return self;
}
This should get you started.

[cell addGestureRecognizer:recognizer]
