Question

I have an issue with a View Controller which is loaded from a NIB. In this NIB I have 2 views, a landscape and portrait. When willAnimateForRotation occurs I i set

// willAnimateForRotation..
if (isLandscape) {
    self.view = self.viewLandscape;
}
else {
    self.view = self.portraitView;
}

in the beginning I set both tables to editing mode:

// viewDidLoad
[self.tableViewPortrait setEditing:YES animated:NO];
[self.tableViewLandscape setEditing:YES animated:NO]; // *

// *
I am pretty sure this line is causing cellForRow to be called on tableViewLandscape at this point, instead of when i set self.tableView = self.tableViewLandscape

It only happens the first time, if I perform 2 orientation changes it will load the items into the tableView correctly.

i dont want to do a [self.tableView reloadData] in orientation change.. that would be redundant.

can anyone see a more graceful way for me to fix this?

Answer 1

Ok, best I could come up with is:

//willAnimateToRotation..
if (!self.tableViewLandscape.editing)
{
    [self.tableViewLandscape setEditing:YES animated:NO];
}

its a cheap hack but can’t think of a more correct solution.
