I want to define a static tableview with one dynamic section Is that possible?
section 0 shall be static, the lables are wired in xcode with the outlets.
section 1 shall be dynamic
I tried this, but I don´t know what cell I shall return for the static part.
static NSString *CellIdentifier = @"ItemCellBasic";
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
switch (indexPath.section)
{ case 0:
return // I don´t know what
case 1:
cell.textLabel =@"dynamic";
return cell;
}
EDIT 1; now I tried:
case 0: return [super tableView:tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:indexPath];
but got:
*** Assertion failure in -[UITableView _createPreparedCellForGlobalRow:withIndexPath:], /SourceCache/UIKit_Sim/UIKit-1912.3/UITableView.m:6072
*** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInternalInconsistencyException', reason: 'UITableView dataSource must return a cell from tableView:cellForRowAtIndexPath:'
I have a partial solution for this problem
In the Table view data source methods I return the superclasses result for the static cells, for the dynamic cells I return the needed dynamic values.
In - (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath the dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier: returns nil so I create a new UITableViewCell
The remaining problem:
in xcode you have to specify, the number of rows in the "dynamic section" (whitch is ofcourse not dynamic). You cann´t display more than the maximum you defined here (or get an exception ;-)).
Samplecode:
- (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section
{
switch (section)
{ case STATIC_SECTION:
return [super tableView:tableView numberOfRowsInSection:section];
case DYNAMIC_SECTION
return NUMBER_OF_DYNAMIC_ROWS;
}
}
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
static NSString *CellIdentifier = @"ItemCellBasic";
UITableViewCell *cell;
switch (indexPath.section)
{
case STATIC_SECTION:
return [super tableView:tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:indexPath];
case DYNAMIC_SECTION:
cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
if (!cell)
{ cell=[[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier] ;
}
cell.textLabel.text=DYNAMIC_TEXT;
return cell;
}
}
