- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
    [tableView reloadData];
    UITableViewCell *cell=(UITableViewCell*)[tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:indexPath];
    [cell setBackgroundColor:[UIColor orangeColor]];
}

[cell setSelectionStyle:UITableViewCellSelectionStyleGray];

确保你已经使用了上面的行来使用选择效果

我认为你在正确的轨道上，但根据selectedBackgroundView的类定义:

对于普通样式表(UITableViewStylePlain)中的单元格，默认为nil，对于section-group表(UITableViewStyleGrouped)中的单元格，默认为非nil。

因此，如果你使用的是普通样式的表，那么你需要alloc-init一个新的UIView，有你想要的背景颜色，然后分配给selectedBackgroundView。

或者，如果你想要的是灰色背景当单元格被选中时，你可以使用这个:

cell.selectionStyle = UITableViewCellSelectionStyleGray;

斯威夫特4 +:

在表格单元格中添加以下行

let bgColorView = UIView()
bgColorView.backgroundColor =  .red
self.selectedBackgroundView = bgColorView

最后应该如下所示

override func setSelected(_ selected: Bool, animated: Bool)
    {
        super.setSelected(selected, animated: animated)

        // Configure the view for the selected state
        let bgColorView = UIView()
        bgColorView.backgroundColor =  .red
        self.selectedBackgroundView = bgColorView

    }

I've got a slightly different approach than everyone else that reflects the selection on touch rather than after being selected. I have a subclassed UITableViewCell. All you have to do is set the background color in the touch events, which simulates selection on touch, and then set the background color in the setSelected function. Setting the background color in the selSelected function allows for deselecting the cell. Make sure to pass the touch event to the super, otherwise the cell won't actually act as if its selected.

override func touchesBegan(touches: NSSet, withEvent event: UIEvent) {
    self.backgroundColor = UIColor(white: 0.0, alpha: 0.1)
    super.touchesBegan(touches, withEvent: event)
}

override func touchesCancelled(touches: NSSet!, withEvent event: UIEvent!) {
    self.backgroundColor = UIColor.clearColor()
    super.touchesCancelled(touches, withEvent: event)
}

override func setSelected(selected: Bool, animated: Bool) {
    super.setSelected(selected, animated: animated)

    // Configure the view for the selected state
    self.backgroundColor = selected ? UIColor(white: 0.0, alpha: 0.1) : UIColor.clearColor()
}

以下是我在iOS 8中使用的。

我必须将选择样式设置为UITableViewCellSelectionStyleDefault，以便自定义背景色能够工作。如果有其他样式，自定义背景色将被忽略。在行为上似乎有一个变化，因为以前的答案需要将style设置为none。

单元格的完整代码如下:

- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
    static NSString *CellIdentifier = @"MyCell";
    UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
    if (cell == nil) {
        cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
    }

    // This is how you change the background color
    cell.selectionStyle = UITableViewCellSelectionStyleDefault;
    UIView *bgColorView = [[UIView alloc] init];
    bgColorView.backgroundColor = [UIColor redColor];
    [cell setSelectedBackgroundView:bgColorView];        
    return cell;
}
