Description

As we have a getRowIndexByName (which by the way is not documented), I thought it would be a great idea to simply have a getRowByName that directly returns the rows so that you can interact with it. In the test case i use it in a click event, which is dumb as you already have e.row, but it s very useful in more complex cases.

var win = Titanium.UI.createWindow();
win.backgroundColor = '#ccc';

var tableview = Ti.UI.createTableView();
win.add(tableview);

var rowData = [];
for (var i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
	var row = Ti.UI.createTableViewRow({
		title : 'row ' + i,
		name : 'row ' + i
	});
	rowData.push(row);
};
tableview.data = rowData;

tableview.addEventListener('click', function(e) {
	if (e.row) {
		Ti.API.info(JSON.stringify(e.row))
		var row = tableview.getRowByName(e.row.name);
		alert('click on row with name "' + e.row.name + '" and the getRowByName return a row with name "' + row.name + '"')
	}
})

win.open();
