Question

I have data being refreshed in a modalViewController and when that data gets refreshed, the parent controller needs to refresh its data as well. I tried doing a [tableView reloadData]; but it didn’t work properly since the actual array values aren’t being refreshed. Is there a way for me to reload a controller without the user seeing any animation?

Thanks for any help!

Answer 1

Are you refreshing the data off the main thread? If so, you need to call the reloadData method using the following method:

- (void)performSelectorOnMainThread:(SEL)aSelector withObject:(id)arg waitUntilDone:(BOOL)wait

So for a tableView it would be something like:

[tableView performSelectorOnMainThread:@selector(reloadData) withObject:nil waitUntilDone:NO];
