didSelectRowAtIndexPath returns wrong IndexPath

Question

I have encountered a really puzzling bug. The first row of my UITableView returns 1 and the second one returns 0 in the indexPath! How is t

Answer 1

You have implemented didDeselectRowAtIndexPath. It will be fired when the row is no longer selected.

When you touch the second row, the first row is no longer selected, so [0, 1] will be shown.
When you touch the first row again, the second row is now no longer selected, so [0, 0] will be shown.

These are totally expected.

Implement didSelectRowAtIndexPath if you need it to respond when the row is selected.

-(void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
    //                                       ^
    ...

    NSLog(@"IndexPath: %@", [indexPath description]);
}
