Question

I have 2 UITableViews. When I click the UIButton outside of either UITableView I’m trying to determine which cells are selected in each tableview.

Anyone have a good way of doing this? Would I loop over the cells to determine which cell is currently selected? Or is there already a method that can tell me?

Thanks a bunch!

Answer 1

You can use this method:

- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {

}

Take a look at UITableViewDelegate Protocol Reference

UITableViewDelege Reference

EDIT: When the user select a row in one of your tables you can get it using this method and a couple of variables for the table and the cell and then you can pass what you got as soon as the user tap on your button.

- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
    thisIsMyTable = tableView;
    thisIsTheSelectedRow = indexPath.row;
    }

- (void)buttonTapped {
    // Do what you need
}
