    <p>I am writing a simple application in the iOS and I am getting the "<strong>UITableView dataSource must return a cell from tableView:cellForRowAtIndexPath:</strong>" error. I am trying to create some static row content. </p> <p><code>My view controller</code> is called <code>"StartViewController"</code>. In the .xib file I have 3 <code>UITableViewCell</code> <code>objects</code> called <code>"Section 0 Cell", "Section 1 Cell" and "Section 2 Cell"</code>. They are defined in the .h file as:</p> <pre><code>@interface StartViewController : UITableViewController { UITableViewCell *cell0; UITableViewCell *cell1; UITableViewCell *cell2; } @property (nonatomic, retain) IBOutlet UITableViewCell *cell0; @property (nonatomic, retain) IBOutlet UITableViewCell *cell1; @property (nonatomic, retain) IBOutlet UITableViewCell *cell2; </code></pre> <p>In the .m they have been synthesized. I can't post a picture of my interface builder as I don't have reputation 10 yet. </p> <p>The cells are populated like this:</p> <pre><code>- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath { NSLog(@"Processing section: %d, row: %d",[indexPath section], [indexPath row]); if (cell0 == nil) NSLog(@"cell0 is nil"); if (([indexPath section] == 0) &amp;&amp; ([indexPath row] == 0)) return cell0; if (([indexPath section] == 1) &amp;&amp; ([indexPath row] == 0)) return cell1; if (([indexPath section] == 2) &amp;&amp; ([indexPath row] == 0)) return cell2; return cell0; } </code></pre> <p>I know the problem is the cell0 is nil but I can't figure out why. </p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
