Question

In a tableview, I need to prevent a cell from being created by a given condition.

For example, I have a tableview that shows a couple of results but I want the app to filter them. Is a way to do this?

Best Regards.

Preventing a cell from being created doesn’t sound good. The simplest way to do that is to implement correctly the ...numberOfRowsInSection: method given the condition :

-(NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section {
    if(condition) {
        return theNumberOfRowsGivenTheCondition;
    }
    else {
        return someOtherRowsCount;
    }
}
