Dynamic prototype cells not loading in simulator

Question

I'm trying to embed this tableview controller into my scroll view.

However, when I fire up the simulator, my cells are blank.

Additionally, whenever I try switching the class of my controller to my custom class, I get a SIGABRT. What's going on here?

Answer 1

Usually, a SIGABRT exception is raised when an object receives an unimplemented message. Or to put it in simpler terms, there’s a call for a nonexistent method on an object.

Usually this won’t happen, since if you call method “foo” on object “bar”, the compiler will throw an error if the method “foo” doesn’t exist. But when you indirectly call a method using a selector, the compiler might not be able to determine whether or not the method exists on the object.
