Thread 1: Signal SIGABRT Error (Swift 2)

Question

I am creating a table app (from AppCoda's tutorial book) but the error Thread 1: signal SIGABRT appears when I run my program. The debug area says:

Here's my code:

Custom View Controller:

import UIKit

class RestaurantTableViewController: UITableViewController {

var restaurantNames = ["Cafe Deadend", "Homei", "Teakha", "Cafe Loisl", "Petite Oyster", "For Kee Restaurant", "Po's Atelier", "Bourke Street Bakery", "Haigh's Chocolate", "Palomino Espresso", "Upstate", "Traif", "Graham Avenue Meats", "Waffle & Wolf", "Five Leaves", "Cafe Lore", "Confessional", "Barrafina", "Donostia", "Royal Oak", "Thai Cafe"]

var restaurantImages = ["cafedeadend.jpg", "homei.jpg", "teakha.jpg", "cafeloisl.jpg", "petiteoyster.jpg", "forkeerestaurant.jpg", "posatelier.jpg", "bourkestreetbakery.jpg", "haighschocolate.jpg", "palominoespresso.jpg", "upstate.jpg", "traif.jpg", "grahamavenuemeats.jpg", "wafflewolf.jpg", "fiveleaves.jpg", "cafelore.jpg", "confessional.jpg", "barrafina.jpg", "donostia.jpg", "royaloak.jpg", "thaicafe.jpg"]

var restaurantLocations = ["Hong Kong", "Hong Kong", "Hong Kong", "Hong Kong", "Hong Kong", "Hong Kong", "Hong Kong", "Sydney", "Sydney", "Sydney", "New York", "New York", "New York", "New York", "New York", "New York", "New York", "London", "London", "London", "London"]

var restaurantTypes = ["Coffee & Tea Shop", "Cafe", "Tea House", "Austrian / Casual Drink", "French" ,"Bakery", "Bakery", "Chocolate", "Cafe", "American / Seafood", "American", "American", "Breakfast & Brunch", "Coffee & Tea", "Coffee & Tea", "Latin American", "Spanish", "Spanish", "Spanish", "British", "Thai"]

override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()

    // Uncomment the following line to preserve selection between presentations
    // self.clearsSelectionOnViewWillAppear = false

    // Uncomment the following line to display an Edit button in the navigation bar for this view controller.
    // self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = self.editButtonItem()
}

override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
    super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
    // Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}

// MARK: - Table view data source

override func numberOfSectionsInTableView(tableView: UITableView) -> Int {

    return 1
}

override func tableView(tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {

    return restaurantNames.count
}

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

    let cellIdentifier = "Cell"
    let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier(cellIdentifier, forIndexPath: indexPath) as! RestaurantTableViewCell

    // Configure the cell...
    cell.nameLabel.text = restaurantNames[indexPath.row]
    cell.locationLabel.text = restaurantLocations[indexPath.row]
    cell.typeLabel.text = restaurantTypes[indexPath.row]
    cell.thumbnailImageView.image = UIImage(named: restaurantImages[indexPath.row])
    return cell
}

Custom Cell:

import UIKit

class RestaurantTableViewCell: UITableViewCell {

@IBOutlet var nameLabel: UILabel!
@IBOutlet var locationLabel: UILabel!
@IBOutlet var typeLabel: UILabel!
@IBOutlet var thumbnailImageView: UIImageView! 

override func awakeFromNib() {
    super.awakeFromNib()
    // Initialization code
}

override func setSelected(selected: Bool, animated: Bool) {
    super.setSelected(selected, animated: animated)

    // Configure the view for the selected state
}

}

All my outlets are connected to the right label/image. I tried connecting and disconnecting them, but that didn't work.

Here's my Main.storyboard:

1

Answer 1

this class is not key value coding-compliant for the key locationLabel.

This means that your outlet for locationLabel is not set. So your code is crashing because it is trying to access a variable (in this case an outlet) that is nil.

Answer 2

Without seeing the beginning of the exception, my best guess is that you didn't give your cells the proper reuseIdentifiers in your storyboard, or that you didn't set the cell to your custom class.
