UITapGestureRecognizer on UIImageView in UITableViewCell

I have designed a UITableViewCell in a .xib. The cell contains an UIImageView that only partially covers the cell. The behavior I am seeking is, if the user taps on the UIImageView, the UIImageView's UITapGestureRecognizer's selector gets triggered, and the UITableViewCell does not trigger didSelectRowAtIndexPath. If the user taps on the UITableViewCell but not the UIImageView, then I want the opposite behavior. Right know what I'm getting is, when the user taps on the UIImageView, both the UITapGestureRecognizer's selector and didSelectRowAtIndexPath get triggered. And when the user taps on just the UITableViewCell, everything works fine. How can I get the desired behavior? I have tried messing around with cancelsTouchesInView among other things.

You don't need to use gesture recognizer to the cell, instead allow userInteractionEnabled set to true for the imageView and add target to the imageView. Refer to this code:

yourImageView.userInteractionEnabled = true
let tapGesture = UITapGestureRecognizer(target: self, action: "imageTapped")
yourImageView.addGestureRecognizer(tapGesture)
