One more question about this approach...

In the cell's nib file:
The class of the File's Owner should be your table view controller
class.
Set an identifier for the cell.
Connect the appropriate outlet from File's Owner to the cell
Connect the button's action to the File's Owner
Connect the cell's button outlet to the button
Does the first line mean that I cannot reuse the XIB-based cells in
different view controllers?
I currently have several custom cells (code only) that are used in 3
different view controllers. The approach I am using is a combination
of the Apple-provided sample 'TouchCells' and this post: http://weblog.bignerdranch.com/?p=56
It looks like this:
if (cell == nil)
{
cell = (MyCustomCell *)[[[MyCustomCell alloc]
initWithFrame:CGRectZero
reuseIdentifier:MyCustomCellIdentifier] autorelease];
[[cell checkButton] addTarget:self
action:@selector(buttonPressed:)
forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
}
...where checkButton is a UIButton property of the custom cell. (and
I am aware that I need to update my initWithFrame: method). This
exact code works equally well in all 3 view controllers.
This is serving me well so far, though now that I am past my "I avoid
IB for iPhone development" phase, I'm interested in reworking my cells
around IB. But, if that means I have to have 3 copies of the same
file just so that File's Owner can be different, I'm losing interest.
Is there a way to use this technique and share the cells with multiple
view controllers?
This might be more of a general question regarding XIB reuse. At the
moment, I have a handful of XIB files for view controllers that are
identical except for File's Owner. It would be nice to get away with
using a single file.
Thanks,
Brian
