Nested UITableViews no longer work in iOS7

Question

I've got a nested table inside the first cell of another table. It worked great, until I recompiled for iOS7, and now the inner table's row selection events are no longer being handled by the inner table's delegate methods.

I'm stumped. Any ideas? Thanks!

Answer 1

I use this technique very often and it still works in iOS 7. Keep in mind that because of how constraints work for scrollviews (in this case tableviews) you need the content of the inner tableview to define the height of it (I'm assuming the inner table is fixed so height = contentSize).

I usually extend UITableView for this purpose into something like this so that it works well with constraints in this scenario:

@implementation ExpandedTableView

- (void)reloadData
{
    [super reloadData];
    [self invalidateIntrinsicContentSize];
}

- (CGSize)intrinsicContentSize
{
    return self.contentSize;
}

@end
