iOS xcode 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: '-[cure superview]: unrecognized selector

[borgy1]

i am not sure why i am getting this error
i created a regular tab bar application
made 5 tabs (compiles and runs)
then put a tableview in one of the tabs , put the code below and i get this error

cure.h
---------------------------------------------
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>

@interface cure : UIViewController 
<UITableViewDataSource, UITableViewDelegate>
{
	NSArray *exercises;
}

@end
---------------------------------------------
cure.m
---------------------------------------------
#import "cure.h"

@implementation cure

- (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section {
	return 1;
}

- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
	UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:@"cell"];
	
	// create a cell
	if ( cell == nil) {
		cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] 
				initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault 
				reuseIdentifier:@"cell"];
	}
	
	// set the main text
	cell.textLabel.text = [exercises objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];

	// return the cell.
	return cell;
}


// Implement viewDidLoad to do additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.
- (void)viewDidLoad {
	exercises = [[NSArray alloc] 
				 initWithObjects:@"An Interesting Title",
				 @"A Not That Interesting Title",
				 @"And Still Another Title", nil];
	
    [super viewDidLoad];
}



- (void)didReceiveMemoryWarning {
	// Releases the view if it doesn't have a superview.
    [super didReceiveMemoryWarning];
	
	// Release any cached data, images, etc that aren't in use.
}

- (void)viewDidUnload {
	// Release any retained subviews of the main view.
	// e.g. self.myOutlet = nil;
}


- (void)dealloc {
    [super dealloc];
}

@end

It looks like in cure.h you have UIViewController as the super class. If that class is supposed to be a tableview, change UIViewController to UITableViewController. Also, I don't see the method for how many sections are in your tableview. Make sure you are using the required methods for the delegate and datasource. Finally, I see you're returning 1 for how many rows are in your tableview, but your array has 3 items in it.

He gave the delegate methods of UITableView to his UIViewController, so that's not a problem.
But u need the sections code. or it won't show anyways.
Don't see the problem otherwise, or it's an IB Error >.>

I wasn't near my computer yesterday when I replied to your thread, but now I am. I created a new Tabbar project in Xcode and copied and pasted your code directly into it. It worked just fine so maybe when you hooked things up in Interface Builder something went wrong (just like jnoxx said).

Where is the outlet for the tableView? Is there a tableview in the nib? Most likely either there is a wrong connection in the nib or a toplevel object in the nib isn't being retained. Is it possible that you connected the cure object in the nib to another view controller's view property?
