iphone uitableview with custom cell - xcode 4 - iphone

Question

Ok so I know there is TONS of documentation online about this, and I feel like I have tried everything, and still can't get it to work. I am trying to implement a tableview with a custom cell that I created in the IB. The file's owner for the CustomCell.xib file is UITableViewCell. This is the header file I am implementing the table view in:
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
#interface QuickCalcController : UIViewController<UITabBarDelegate, UITableViewDelegate, UITableViewDataSource>{
NSMutableArray *numbers;
NSMutableArray *discount_numbers;
}
#property (nonatomic, retain) IBOutlet UITableView *tblView;
#end
and here is the code in the implementation file:
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tblView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
static NSString *CellIdentifier = #"DiscountCellController";
DiscountCellController *cell = [tblView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
if (cell == nil){
NSLog(#"New Cell Made");
NSArray *topLevelObjects = [[NSBundle mainBundle] loadNibNamed:#"DiscountCellController" owner:nil options:nil];
for(id currentObject in topLevelObjects)
{
if([currentObject isKindOfClass:[DiscountCellController class]])
{
cell = (DiscountCellController *)currentObject;
break;
}
}
}
cell.standardLabel.text = #"hi";//[discount_numbers objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
cell.discountLabel.text = #"hi";//[discount_numbers objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
NSLog(#"setting the cell");
return cell;
}
#pragma mark -
#pragma mark Table view data source
- (NSInteger)numberOfSectionsInTableView:(UITableView *)tblView
{
return 1;
}
- (NSString *)tableView:(UITableView *)tblView titleForHeaderInSection: (NSInteger)section
{
return nil;
}
- (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tblView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section
{
return 5;
}
- (NSArray *)sectionIndexTitlesForTableView:(UITableView *)tblView {
return nil;
}
I have connected the labels in the custom cell to the standardLabel and discountLabel in DiscountCellController. I get this error:
[3390:207] *** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSUnknownKeyException', reason: '[<NSObject 0x4e227d0> setValue:forUndefinedKey:]: this class is not key value coding-compliant for the key standardLabel.'
As I missing something?

Yes, you are. First of all, this is a common error. In your nib file for the cell, define File's owner as NSObject. In your nib file, you should have a UITableViewCell, that's all. No view. Change the type of the UITableViewCell to DiscountCellController. Now the important part - right click the DiscountCellController to make the links to your labels, etc. DO NOT MAKE THE LINKS FROM THE FILE"S OWNER
