How to access UITableViewCell's UITextView from the UIViewController?

Question

I have created my own UITableViewCell with XIB file. There's an UITextView inside. However, I don't know how to access its features and use its outlets with the UIViewController. What's the way to do it?

Answer 1

You can access it by pulling the subview out of the cell's subviews array and casting it to UITextView:

How you created your view hierarchy will determine the index to pass to objectAtIndex.

UITextView *textView = (UITextView*) [cell.subviews objectAtIndex:whateverIndex];
