UITableView array returns nil

Question

Right now I have a tableview, and I can assure you that the delegate method all work. But I am trying to load the tableview from an array. the same array returns actual objects when i log then earlier in the app, but when I try to access the same array in - (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath it always returns nil/null.Here is the implementation of - (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath:

NSLog(@"cell for row at twitter called");
static NSString *CellIdentifier = @"Cell";

UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
if (cell == nil) {
    cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleSubtitle reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
}

NSDictionary *tweet = [timeLineData objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
// NSLog(@"Tweet at index %d is %@", [indexPath row], tweet);
//NSLog(@"Tweet: %@", tweet);
cell.textLabel.text = [tweet objectForKey:@"text"];

cell.detailTextLabel.text = [tweet valueForKeyPath:@"user.name"];


return cell;

I am so confused as to why this is, because in all of my other projects the same code works just fine. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Virindh Borra

When you load the tableview, is your NSLog statement called? What is the code inside your numberOfRowsInSection method? — sooper

Would it help if you access the array using:

[yourArray objectAtIndex:indexpath.row];

can you post the implementation of the - (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath method? It would help us give you a better answer.

Sorry, there is nothing i can find wrong with the code you posted (the problem may lie elsewhere). The only advice i have with the information given is that the table view cells might be initialized before timeLineData is initialized.
