Having meticulously followed the examples and instructions in the Table View Programming Guide for iOS about the proper order in which UITableView delegate and data source methods are called, I thought I had a good idea of how to implement the “handshake” shown in Figure 7-1 and the list that follows, but apparently not.
Here’s the code I’m using…
- (void) tableView: (UITableView *) tableView commitEditingStyle: (UITableViewCellEditingStyle) editingStyle forRowAtIndexPath: (NSIndexPath *) indexPath {
NSLog(@"Removing %@ row %d.", [dataModel objectAtIndex: indexPath.row], indexPath.row);
[tableView deleteRowsAtIndexPaths: [NSArray arrayWithObjects: indexPath, nil] withRowAnimation: UITableViewRowAnimationFade];
[dataModel removeObjectAtIndex: indexPath.row];
}
tableView is the UITableView
dataModel is an NSArray instance that holds the objects represented by the UITableViewCells from the tableView.
…and the error I’m getting…
