can't get disclosure button/segue to work

Question

My segue seems to not be working and won't pop up the disclosure button:

MADViewController.h

#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>

}

{
    [super viewDidLoad];
    // Initialize table data

    Pokemonobj *poke3 = [Pokemonobj new];
    poke3.name = @"Full Breakfast";

I'm not sure if you need to see other areas of code. But here's the snippet for now.

Answer 1

You need to set cell.accessoryType

Try doing

- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
    static NSString *simpleTableIdentifier = @"pokeCell";

    UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:simpleTableIdentifier];

    if (cell == nil) {
        cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:simpleTableIdentifier];
    }

    Pokemonobj *pokemon = [pokemons objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
   cell.textLabel.text = pokemon.name;
    cell.accessoryType = UITableViewCellAccessoryDetailDisclosureButton;
    return cell;
}

after that you can implement

- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView accessoryButtonTappedForRowWithIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath;

Setup a segue with @"showPokeDetail" identifier in storyboard. and call the segue in above implementation.

[self performSegueWithIdentifier:@"showPokeDetail" sender:nil];

Note: When you are using accessoryType you will not get the NSIndexPath *indexPath = [self.tableView indexPathForSelectedRow]; You will need to store the selected index in a variable.

Answer 2

Are you sure you set up connection from your cell to the PokeDetailViewController in storyboard and you set up segue identifier to PokeDetailViewController (@"showPokeDetail" )? If not add:

- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
    [self performSegueWithIdentifier:@"showPokeDetail" sender:nil];
}

//Still remember to set up segue identifier from your ViewController (not from the cell) to PokeDetailViewController (@"showPokeDetail"),
