How to show 2 customized cells in the UITableView

Question

I have to show 2 different cells in a table. I have tried it by setting a prototype to a table. but it is still showing Prototype table cells must have reuse identifiers

Answer 1

You must set the Reuse Identifier for both prototype cells, and they must be different. Then in your cellForItemAtIndexPath method, you must dequeue the cells using the corresponding Reuse Identifier based on the indexPath given.

override func tableView(tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UITableView {

    switch indexPath.section {
    case 0:
        return tableView.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier("CustomCell1", forIndexPath: indexPath)
    case 1:
        return tableView.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier("CustomCell2", forIndexPath: indexPath)
    break:
        return UITableViewCell()
    }
}

Answer 2

In storyboard you have to define the Identifier for the cells like the below image

Then in cellForRowAtIndexPath you have to use the specific identifier for specific cell like this

func tableView(tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
    if indexPath.row == 0 {
        let cell: UITableViewCell = UITableViewCell(style: UITableViewCellStyle.Default, reuseIdentifier: "Identifier1")
        //set the data here
        return cell
    }
    else if indexPath.row == 1 {
        let cell: UITableViewCell = UITableViewCell(style: UITableViewCellStyle.Default, reuseIdentifier: "Identifier2")
        //set the data here
        return cell
    }
}
