Description

When configuring data binding for a TableView, if binding the "title" property on a TableViewRow to a model property, and the model's property is not a string, an argument exception is thrown and the application crashes. I would think that the proxy should accept values not of string type and just convert them. [ERROR] The application has crashed with an uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException'. Reason: -[__NSCFNumber isEqualToString:]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0xb23fce0 Stack trace: 0 CoreFoundation 0x03587012 __exceptionPreprocess + 178 1 libobjc.A.dylib 0x02fd9e7e objc_exception_throw + 44 2 CoreFoundation 0x036124bd -[NSObject(NSObject) doesNotRecognizeSelector:] + 253 3 CoreFoundation 0x03576bbc ___forwarding___ + 588 4 CoreFoundation 0x0357694e _CF_forwarding_prep_0 + 14 5 UIKit 0x00f2ee9f -[UILabel _setText:] + 92 6 UIKit 0x00f2f064 -[UILabel setText:] + 40

    What other data types would you like to be able to be inserted in the title property? The title property of TableViewRow is only meant to show a title in the form of a string which describes what the Row is. If you want to have any other thing inside the row you can just add to it (such as a view or label). Would you mind elaborating on the benefits of allowing any data type be in the title property? Regards, Carter

    This is expected behavior. **title** is a string property.
