UITableView didSelectRowAt does not register

Question

I have a custom UITableView in a ViewController. My custom table has custom UITableViewCells. This is the code inside my ViewController:

ViewDidLoad:

        self.firstListTable.dataSource = self
        self.firstListTable.delegate = self
        self.firstListTable.register(UINib(nibName: "firstQueueCell", bundle: Bundle.main), forCellReuseIdentifier: "firstCell")

        self.searchListTable.dataSource = self
        self.searchListTable.delegate = self
        self.searchListTable.allowsSelection = true
        self.searchListTable.register(UINib(nibName: "SearchCell", bundle: Bundle.main), forCellReuseIdentifier: "SearchCell")
        self.searchListTable.separatorStyle = .none

UITableViewFunctions:

func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, didHighlightRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) {
    if tableView == self.searchListTable {
        print("hello") 
    }
}

func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, didSelectRowAt indexPath: IndexPath){
   print("hello")
}

didHighlightRowAt works but didSelectRowAt does not.

I tried this: didSelectRowAtIndexPath: not being called

What other causes could there be?

Thanks!

looks like there is no error in your code, can you post all the code about it let us have a look if is other place goes wrong? — aircraft, Feb 19 '17 at 02:15
@user82395214, checked your code. Nothing wrong with it. Both of them are responding. Can you change `print` statement for `didSelectRowAt` method from `print("hello")` to something different and check it again? — KrishnaCA, Feb 19 '17 at 03:52

If you want didHighlightRowAt and didSelectRowAt both response, you can overwrite your method didHighlightRowAt like this :

func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, didHighlightRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) {
if tableView == self.searchListTable {
    print("hello") 

    // this is my OC code ,change it to your swift code 
    [tableView selectRowAtIndexPath:IndexPath animated:NO scrollPosition:UITableViewScrollPositionNone];

    }
}

You can understand this as didHighlightRowAt method and didSelectRowAt method have conflicts, if you want both method response, you must make some special treatment.

Oh sorry, no I'm trying to say that my `didHighlight` works, but `didSelect` doesn't. I don't want the user to have to hold a cell to interact with it. – user82395214 Feb 19 '17 at 02:11
i know what you want, but if overwrite the both method like your code, `didSelectRowAt` is very hard to response. user must click very much time to call `didSelectRowAt`. – Mistrx丶 Feb 19 '17 at 02:17
can you tell me the real effort you want in `didHighlightRowAt`? i suggest you put the code for your effort in `didSelectRowAt` method. – Mistrx丶 Feb 19 '17 at 02:20
