How to override didSelectRowAtIndexPath in UICollectionViewCell inside UITableViewCell?

Question

Objective-C

There is such structure:

All delegates are anchored, all methods fulfill perfectly. Everything except

- (void)collectionView:(UICollectionView *)collectionView didSelectItemAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath;

AT

- (UICollectionViewCell *)collectionView:(UICollectionView *)collectionView cellForItemAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath

I added UITapGestureRecognizerto the cell, but I'm wondering if it's possible to intercept the standard event? On foreign forums I read that no.

Answer 1

What prevents you from calling the desired cell method yourself from didSelectItemAtIndexPath?
