POUITableView delegate and datasource in a separate class after parsing
text
Body
copied!<p>I need to set my UITableView delegate and datasource from a separate class (data ready after parsing called by a method), but every time my table is emtpy. I'm using ARC and this is simplified code:</p> <pre><code>//HomeViewController.h #import <UIKit/UIKit.h> #import "TableController.h" @interface HomeViewController : UIViewController { IBOutlet UITableView *table; TableController *tableController; } @end </code></pre> <p>and</p> <pre><code>//HomeViewController.m #import "HomeViewController.h" @interface HomeViewController () @end @implementation HomeViewController - (void)viewDidLoad { [super viewDidLoad]; tableController = [[TableController alloc] init]; table.dataSource = tableController.tableSource.dataSource; table.delegate = tableController.tableSource.delegate; [tableController loadTable]; // HERE I CALL LOADTABLE FROM TABLECONTROLLER CLASS TO PARSE DATA AND POPULATE UITABLEVIEW [table reloadData]; } </code></pre> <p>and</p> <pre><code>// TableController.h #import <UIKit/UIKit.h> @interface TableController : NSObject <UITableViewDelegate, UITableViewDataSource> { UITableView *tableSource; // a lot of NSMutableArray to parse my data } - (void)loadTable; @property (nonatomic, strong) UITableView *tableSource; @end </code></pre> <p>and</p> <pre><code>//TableController.m #import "TableController.h" #import "AFNetworking.h" @interface TableController () @end @implementation TableController @synthesize tableSource; - (void)loadTable { NSURL *parseURL = // remote URL to parse Data NSURLRequest *request = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL:parseURL]; AFJSONRequestOperation *parseOperation = [AFJSONRequestOperation JSONRequestOperationWithRequest:request success:^(NSURLRequest *request, NSHTTPURLResponse *response, id JSON) { // code to parse Data and NSLog to test operation [tableSource reloadData]; [tableSource setUserInteractionEnabled:YES]; [tableSource scrollRectToVisible:CGRectMake(0, 0, 1, 1) animated:YES]; } failure:^(NSURLRequest *request, NSHTTPURLResponse *response, NSError *error, id JSON) { NSLog(@"%@", [error userInfo]); }]; [parseOperation start]; [tableSource setUserInteractionEnabled:NO]; } </code></pre> <p>and, obviously, still in TableController.m, all the classic UITableView delegate methods:</p> <pre><code>- (NSInteger)numberOfSectionsInTableView:(UITableView *)tableView { // my code } - (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section { // my code } - (CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath { // my code } - (UIView *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView viewForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section { // my code } - (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath{ // my code } - (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView willDisplayCell:(UITableViewCell *)cell forRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath { // my code } - (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath { // my code } </code></pre> <p>Well, the parse is perfect (I can test it with a NSLog), but my <strong>table</strong> is empty. Can u help me?</p> <p><strong>EDIT:</strong> In my code <code>loadTable</code> parsing method is asynchronous, so table load with right datasource and delegate but BEFORE all data is parsed; in fact IF I SET a fixed numberOfRows and then SCROLL TABLE I can see all the rows populated. But, when I load HomeViewController, *table is still EMPTY.</p>
