I'm trying to create UICollectionView dynamically but I keep getting an exception that we usually get when dataSource or delegate was not set:
* Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: '-[UIView collectionView:numberOfItemsInSection:]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x8a78ce0'
But it’s there! This is my code:
Header:
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
@interface classHeader : UIViewController <UICollectionViewDelegate, UICollectionViewDataSource>
@property(nonatomic, retain) UICollectionView *collectionView;
@end
Implementation:
#import "classHeader.h"
@implementation classHeader
@synthesize collectionView;
- (id)initWithNibName:(NSString *)nibNameOrNil bundle:(NSBundle *)nibBundleOrNil
{
self = [super initWithNibName:nibNameOrNil bundle:nibBundleOrNil];
return self;
}
- (void)viewDidLoad
{
[super viewDidLoad];
UICollectionViewFlowLayout *flowLayout = [[UICollectionViewFlowLayout alloc] init];
[flowLayout setScrollDirection: UICollectionViewScrollDirectionHorizontal];
[flowLayout setItemSize: CGSizeMake(0, 0, 10, 10)];
collectionView = [[UICollectionView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 50, 50) collectionViewLayout:flowLayout];
[collectionView setDelegate:self];
[collectionView setDataSource:self];
[collectionView registerClass:[wbcGuidedAccessManualSlideCell class] forCellWithReuseIdentifier:SlideCellIdentifier];
}
- (void)didReceiveMemoryWarning
{
[super didReceiveMemoryWarning];
// Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}
#pragma mark - UICollectionView Datasource
- (NSInteger)collectionView:(UICollectionView *)view numberOfItemsInSection:(NSInteger)section
{
return 0; // No matter what value is here - exception
}
- (NSInteger)numberOfSectionsInCollectionView: (UICollectionView *)collectionView
{
return 0; // No matter what value is here - exception
}
- (UICollectionViewCell *)collectionView:(UICollectionView *)cv cellForItemAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
return nil; // No matter what value is here - exception
}
#pragma mark - UICollectionViewDelegate
- (void)collectionView:(UICollectionView *)collectionView didSelectItemAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
// TODO: Select Item
}
- (void)collectionView:(UICollectionView *)collectionView didDeselectItemAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
// TODO: Deselect item
}
#pragma mark – UICollectionViewDelegateFlowLayout
- (CGSize)collectionView:(UICollectionView *)collectionView layout:(UICollectionViewLayout*)collectionViewLayout sizeForItemAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
return CGSizeMake(50, 50);
}
- (UIEdgeInsets)collectionView: (UICollectionView *)collectionView layout:(UICollectionViewLayout*)collectionViewLayout insetForSectionAtIndex:(NSInteger)section
{
return UIEdgeInsetsMake(0, 20, 0, 20);
}
@end
And one interesting note:
- if I use storyboard to set up dataSource/delegate using its connectors I still have to set up dataSource/delegate by the code, so I set it twice, but it works;
- when I use code-only, or storyboard connectors only – it does not work and I get exception.
I can’t understand what I have to set up or to implement more?..
P.S. XCode 5.0
