A UITableView uses a UILabel as its Accessory View.
By using the following code, I am able to retrieve the UILabel but i cant figure how to access the text alone:
NSLog(@"text label: %@",[[self.frequencyTableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:[NSIndexPath indexPathForRow:0 inSection:0]] accessoryView]);
LOG:
2014-04-15 12:50:16.433 SmartWatch[2771:70b] text label: <UILabel: 0xfb81870; frame = (205 4; 60 20); text = '12:50 PM'; clipsToBounds = YES; userInteractionEnabled = NO; layer = <CALayer: 0xfb619d0>>
i want to retrieve the text alone('12:50 PM').Thanks!
NSLog(@"text label: %@",((UILabel*)[[self.frequencyTableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:[NSIndexPath indexPathForRow:0 inSection:0]] accessoryView]).text);
However, this is not really secure, i believe it would be better to directly access your model, when you set your accessory view you should do something like :
UILabel *label = [[UILabel alloc] init];
label.text = [someArray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
cell.accessoryView = label;
And if you want the text just get it directly from your array
NSLog(@"text label: %@",[someArray objectAtIndex:0]);
