Subclassing UITableViewCell
A
UITableView
displays a list of
UITableViewCell
s. For many applications, the ba-
sic cell with its
textLabel
,
detailTextLabel
, and
imageView
is sufficient.
However, when you need a cell with more detail or a different layout, you subclass
UIT-
ableViewCell
.
In this chapter, you will create a custom subclass of
UITableViewCell
named
Homep-
wnerItemCell
that will display
BNRItem
instances more eloquently. Each of these
cells will show a
BNRItem
's name, its value in dollars, its serial number, and a thumbnail
of its image (
Figure 15.1
).
