Reorder control isn't displayed on table view

Question

I created an iOS application based on navigation-based application template, the application is backed by Core Data framework.

When clicking on Edit button, I want the rows to be reorder-able and delete-able.

When constructing cells, I added this line:

cell.showsReorderControl = YES;

And tableView:canMoveRowAtIndexPath: method returns YES.

But the reorder control isn't displayed in the row, Am I missing something?

Answer 1

From the UITableViewCell showsReorderControl docs:

For the reordering control to appear, you must not only set this property but implement the UITableViewDataSource method tableView:moveRowAtIndexPath:toIndexPath:. In addition, if the data source implements tableView:canMoveRowAtIndexPath: to return NO, the reordering control does not appear in that designated row.
