UITableView reload section
Yes, there is:
- (void)reloadSections:(NSIndexSet *)sections withRowAnimation:(UITableViewRowAnimation)animation
The reloadSections method bugs me -- as I have to construct a few objects. This is great if you need the flexibility, but sometimes I also just want the simplicity too. It goes like this:
NSRange range = NSMakeRange(0, 1);
NSIndexSet *section = [NSIndexSet indexSetWithIndexesInRange:range];
[self.tableView reloadSections:section withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationNone];
This will reload the first section. I prefer to have a category on UITableView and just call this method:
[self.tableView reloadSectionDU:0 withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationNone];
My category method looks like this:
@implementation UITableView (DUExtensions)
- (void) reloadSectionDU:(NSInteger)section withRowAnimation:(UITableViewRowAnimation)rowAnimation {
NSRange range = NSMakeRange(section, 1);
NSIndexSet *sectionToReload = [NSIndexSet indexSetWithIndexesInRange:range];
[self reloadSections:sectionToReload withRowAnimation:rowAnimation];
}
