Connect outlet between table view and viewcontroller with storyboard


I'm trying to connect an outlet between a table view and the viewcontroller.h by using drag and drop. I'm using this tutorial. My problem occurs at the following instruction:

  • Select the Table View object and display the Assistant Editor using View -> Assistant Editor -> Show Assistant Editor menu option.
  • Ctrl-click on the Table View object in the view and drag the resulting line to the area immediately beneath the @interface directive in the Assistant Editor panel.
  • Upon releasing the line, the connection panel will appear. Configure the connection as an Outlet named tweetTableView and click on the Connect button.

I do not get the option to connect the two (by drag and drop). I have done it with a webview before and that all works correctly. The dragging also works for me in the storyboard itself but not when i drag to the viewcontroller.h file. Maybe its my storyboard setup; that is as follows:

Tab bar controller (Start point)

  • Navigation controller ---> Table view controller
  • View controller (with webview inside )

Could anyone please help me?


Solution

  • You have a Tab bar? Then, you must have another viewcontroller (let's say viewSecondViewController.h) associated to the second tab bar..

    enter image description here

    In that "ViewSecondViewController.h" you can drag and link...
