What does the "unrecognized selector sent to instance" error mean?

I am parsing XML, and getting this erro开发者_Python百科r:

[NSCFString event_Title]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x6b0c130 2010-12-22 19:48:38.719 TestDemo[2234:207] * Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: '-[NSCFString event_Title]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x6b0c130' * Call stack at first throw:

I am trying cell.textLabel.text=[appDelegate.listArray objectAtIndex:IndexPath.row];. All the data in my array is displayed in my tableview.

When I am trying with Class Reference, with that I can display only Event_title only on my tableview. It's crashing my application.

Event *aEvent=[appDelegate.listArray objectAtIndex:IndexPath.row];
cell.textLabel.text=aEvent.Event_title;

If I call this my application get crash.

It looks like you accidentally set event to a NSString on this line

Events *event=[[Events alloc] init];
event=[appDelegate.listArray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];

Try this

Events *event=[[Events alloc] init];
event.event_Title=[appDelegate.listArray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
