NSTimer inside custom tableViewCell

Question

I\'m activating a function in my custom cell class from a viewController. The custom cell class looks like this:

import UIKit

class TableViewCell: UITableViewCe         


        

Answer 1

override func tableView(tableView: UITableView, didSelectRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) {
    let cell = tableView.cellForRowAtIndexPath(indexPath) as TableViewCell
    cell.timerStarted()
}

For your tableview cell class:

func timerStarted(){
    var timer = NSTimer()

    timer = NSTimer.scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval(1, target: self, selector: "update", userInfo: nil, repeats: true)
}

func update(){
    counter = counter - 1
    println(counter)
}
