dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier behavior changed for prototype cells?

Question

In iOS5, using ARC and prototype cells for tableView on storyboard, can I replace the code below:

static NSString *CellIdentifier = @\"Cell\";

UITableViewCe         


        

Answer 1

This is the way Apple intends it to be used, but I recommend against it. There is a bug that causes dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier to return nil when VoiceAssist is enabled on a device. That means your app will crash for users with this option turned on. This is still a problem as of iOS 5.1.1

You can find more info and a workaround here:

The last paragraph has the work-around

Answer 2

Sure, your code are right, storyboard automaticaly alloc new cells, this code work great:

 - (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{   
    RoadbookCell *cell = (RoadbookCell *)[tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:@"RoadbookCell"];

    //Configure cell
    //[cell.lab1 setText:@"Test"];

    return cell;
}
