Could not cast value of type 'UITableViewCell' (0x10c111c68) to subclass

I am attempting to build a fairly straight forward table of data, and am following along with this tutorial: http://www.raywenderlich.com/87975/dynamic-table-view-cell-height-ios-8-swift

I have the following custom cell class:

import Foundation
import UIKit

class WorkItemCell: UITableViewCell {
  @IBOutlet var titleLabel: UILabel!
}

and the following function in my TableClass:

func tableView(tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
    let cell = self.tableView.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier("WorkItemCell") as! WorkItemCell
    cell.textLabel?.text = self.work[indexPath.row]["name"] as! String
    return cell
}

This results in:

Could not cast value of type 'UITableViewCell' (0x10c111c68) to 'proj.WorkItemCell' (0x10a84c4c0).

Why? And how do I fix it?

Eventually, what I realized the problem was is that I was using UITableViewCell.self in my tableView.registerClass, changing that to WorkItemCell.self fixed the problem

Please make sure your idenrifier for the custom class is WorkItemCell and also you need to register the nib in viewdidload like 

var nib = UINib(nibName: "WorkItemCell", bundle: nil)
tableView.registerNib(nib, forCellReuseIdentifier: "WorkItemCell")

and your cell code like .

var cell:WorkItemCell= self.tableView.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier("WorkItemCell") as! WorkItemCell
