accessoryButtonTappedForRowWithIndexPath: not getting called

Question

Answer 1

Converting the top answer to Swift 3:

func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
    ...
    let unseletcedImage = UIImage(named: "")
    let seletcedImage = UIImage(named: "")
    let button = UIButton(type: .custom)
    // match the button's size with the image size
    let frame = CGRect(x: CGFloat(0.0), y: CGFloat(0.0), width: CGFloat((unseletcedImage?.size.width)!), height: CGFloat((unseletcedImage?.size.height)!))
    button.frame = frame
    button.setBackgroundImage(unseletcedImage, for: .normal)
    button.setBackgroundImage(seletcedImage, for: .selected)
    cell?.accessoryView = button
    let action = #selector(checkButtonTapped(sender:event:))
    (cell?.accessoryView as? UIButton)?.addTarget(self, action: action, for: .touchUpInside)
    ....
    return cell!

}

@objc func checkButtonTapped(sender: UIButton?, event: UIEvent) {
    let touches = event.allTouches
    let touch = touches!.first
    guard let touchPosition = touch?.location(in: self.tableView) else {
        return
    }
    if let indexPath = tableView.indexPathForRow(at: touchPosition) {
        tableView(self.tableView, accessoryButtonTappedForRowWith: indexPath)
    }
}
