Question

I have a UITableView that I am adding dynamically via a initWithFrame.

- (void)twitterUpdate {
twitterTable = [[UITableView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(40, 100, 420, 750)];
twitterTable.delegate = self;
twitterTable.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
twitterTable.separatorColor = [UIColor darkGrayColor];
twitterTable.dataSource = self;
[twitterView addSubview:twitterTable];
}

Unfortunately,

 - (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {

is not being called though I have

<UITableViewDataSource, UITableViewDelegate>

defined in my header.

Any ideas as to why this is not called? twitterUpdate is being called via

[self performSelectorOnMainThread:@selector(twitterUpdate) withObject:self waitUntilDone:YES];

and is drawing the table to the page. I also have

- (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section 

returning a valid NSInteger.

Are you not able to dynamically create tables like this?

Answer 1

Make sure you call:

[twitterTable reloadData];
