tableview - Passing values between ViewControllers based on list selection in Swift -

i'm trying pass selected index number of listview selection 1 viewcontroller running issue tableview didselectrowatindexpath delegate runs later prepareforsegue function.

basically, in didselectrowatindexpath, seta variable, picked in prepareforsegue. issue prepareforsegue seems run second cell selected , before didselectrowatindexpath function called variable not passed.

my main bits of code are:

tableview didselectrowatindexpath delegate, sets 'selectedresult'...

func tableview(tableview: uitableview!, didselectrowatindexpath indexpath: nsindexpath!) {     selectedresult = indexpath.item     txtnamesearch.resignfirstresponder()    //get rid of keyboard when table touched.     println("saved result")       //tableview.deselectrowatindexpath(indexpath, animated: false)     //var tappeditem: todoitem = self.todoitems.objectatindex(indexpath.row) todoitem     //tappeditem.completed = !tappeditem.completed     //tableview.reloaddata()  } 

prepareforsegue function sends variable 'topass' other viewcontroller ('detailviewcontroller'):

override func prepareforsegue(segue: uistoryboardsegue!, sender: anyobject!){     if (segue.identifier == "detailseque") {         println("preparing")         var svc = segue!.destinationviewcontroller detailviewcontroller         svc.topass = selectedresult          //println(tableview.indexpathsforselectedrows().         //svc.topass = tableview.indexpathforselectedrow()      } } 

thanks in advance

if have outlet tableview in viewcontroller, can call indexpathforselectedrow in prepareforsegue.

if viewcontroller subclass of uitableviewcontroller, can do:

    let row = self.tableview.indexpathforselectedrow().row     println("row \(row) selected") 

if viewcontroller not subclass of uitableviewcontroller, set iboutlet uitableview in view controller:

@iboutlet var tableview: uitableview! 

and wire in interface builder , call prepareforsegue show above.
