TableView - heightForRowAtIndexPath not being called

Question

After going through all of the other Stack Overflow forms, I have implemented a dynamic height for one of my cells as follows:

override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
    var cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "cell", for: indexPath) as UITableViewCell

    if(indexPath.row == 1){
        var image : UIImage = maskRoundedImage(image: UIImage(named: "Temp_Profile.png")!, radius: 150)
        cell.imageView?.image = image
        return cell
    }
    cell.textLabel?.text = TableArray[indexPath.row]
    cell.backgroundColor = UIColor.init(colorLiteralRed: 0.56, green: 0, blue: 0.035, alpha: 1)
    cell.textLabel?.textColor = UIColor.white
    cell.textLabel?.font = UIFont(name: "Helvetica", size: 28)

    return cell
}
func tableView(tableView: UITableView, heightForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> CGFloat {
    if  indexPath.row == 1 {
        return UITableViewAutomaticDimension * 3

    }
    return UITableViewAutomaticDimension
}

It seems pretty straightforward, but a debugging session is showing that heightForRowAtIndexPath is never being called. The View Controller is a UITableViewController and everything else works properly. Do any of you see any reason that this function is not being called?

Thank you for the help!

In Swift 3, the signature is:

func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, heightForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> CGFloat

You have the old signature so it isn't recognized.

func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, heightForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> CGFloat {
    if indexPath.row == 1 {
        return UITableViewAutomaticDimension * 3

    }
    return UITableViewAutomaticDimension
}
