Question

Given:

I created a Navigation-based Application for Obj-C iPhone. In the method of - (void) viewDidLoad in the file RootViewController.m added button +:

 / * Create the button that appears on the Right Side * /
 UIBarButtonItem * rightButton =
 [[UIBarButtonItem alloc]
  initWithBarButtonSystemItem: UIBarButtonSystemItemAdd
  target: self
  action: @ selector (performRight:)];

 / * Assign the buttons to the Navigation Item's properties * /
 self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = rightButton;

 [rightButton release];

In the method of - (NSInteger) tableView: (UITableView *) tableView numberOfRowsInSection: (NSInteger) section changed the return value from 1 to 4:

return 4;

A method of - (void) performRight: (id) paramSender

- (Void) performRight: (id) paramSender
{
     / * Perform another action here * /


     // Add a row (?).

}

Question:

How can I make the row added to the table when I click on the button +?

Explanation:

All I found examples using arrays, which I do not need.

Thank you.

This is a default code. In the message above, I wrote a full process of creating the application.

// Customize the appearance of table view cells.
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
    static NSString *CellIdentifier = @"Cell";

    UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
    if (cell == nil) {
        cell = [[[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier] autorelease];
    }

    // Configure the cell.
    return cell;
}

I added this code

[self.tableView insertRowsAtIndexPaths:[NSArray arrayWithObject:[NSIndexPath indexPathForRow:row inSection:section]] withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationBottom];

But I get an error Thread 1: Program received signal "SIGABRT". I quote below NSLog:

What kind of data are you presenting
that doesn’t need an array? – Deepak 7

This is a sample application, which posed to perform at Courses iOS Developer.

Answer 1

Solution!

In RootViewController.h add

@ interface RootViewController:
UITableViewController {
     int rows; }

In RootViewController.m add

 - (NSInteger) tableView: (UITableView *) tableView numberOfRowsInSection: (NSInteger) section {
      return rows; }

and

 - (Void) performRight: (id) paramSender

 {
      // Insert a row
      ++rows;
      [self.tableView reloadData]; }

In RootViewController.xib add outlets

 tableView - Table View
