A better solution is to add a category for UIView(SuperView), and calling it by:

UITableViewCell *cell = [button findSuperViewWithClass:[UITableViewCell class]]

This way, your code works for all future and past iOS versions

@interface UIView (SuperView)

- (UIView *)findSuperViewWithClass:(Class)superViewClass;

@end


@implementation UIView (SuperView)

- (UIView *)findSuperViewWithClass:(Class)superViewClass {

    UIView *superView = self.superview;
    UIView *foundSuperView = nil;

    while (nil != superView && nil == foundSuperView) {
        if ([superView isKindOfClass:superViewClass]) {
            foundSuperView = superView;
        } else {
            superView = superView.superview;
        }
    }
    return foundSuperView;
}
@end
