TableView cells becomes inactive - ios

Question

I am using a tableView to take some surveys.
Header I use for a question. Footer for «back» and «next» buttons. And tableView cells for answer options.
Now I started to have a problem, with some user interaction: when you simultaneously click on the “next” button and select an answer, the answer options cease to be active, nothing can be selected. Although the buttons remain active.
Tell me in what direction to look for the problem and how you can debug this problem in order to understand what's wrong.
It all started after fixing bugs, when the application crashed when simultaneously (or almost) pressing the "next" button and choosing an answer. Because the didSelectRowAt method worked after I changed the current array of answer options, and the selected index in the previous question turned out to be larger than the size of the array with the answers to the new question.
class AssessmentVC: UIViewController {
#IBOutlet weak var tableView: UITableView!
var footer: FooterTableView?
var header: UIView?
var arrayAssessmnet = [AssessmentDM]()

Answer 1

Some snippets that can help you :
// Answer type : use enum . Here the Strong/Codable is if you want to
// save using JSON encoding/decoding
enum AnswerType: String, Codable {
case checkBox = "CheckBox"
case radio = "Radio"
}
Setup of your cell :
class AnswerAssessmentCell: UITableViewCell {
...
// work with Option type
func initCell(option: Option, response: String?, answerType: AnswerType) {
// setup cell contents (labels)
// check for selected status
switch answerType {
case .checkBox:
// check if option is in response
// set isSelected according
break
case .radio:
// check if option is response
// set isSelected according
break
}
}
}
In table view data source :
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "cell", for: indexPath) as! AnswerAssessmentCell
// Use the option to init the cell
// this will also set the selected state
let optionNumber = indexPath.row
cell.initCell(option: arrayOptions![optionNumber], response: arrayAnswers[numberQuestion].response, answerType: question.answerType)
return cell
}
In Table view delegate :
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, didSelectRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) {
isChangAnswerInAssessment = true
let optionNumber = indexPath.row
switch question.answerType {
case .radio:
selectRadio(optionNumber: optionNumber)
case .checkBox:
selectCheckBox(optionNumber: optionNumber)
}
// Reload tableview to show changes
tableView.reloadData()
}
// Separate in 2 function for smaller functions
// in this function work only with model data, the reload data will do
// cell update
// only the footer view button cooler may need to be changed
private func selectRadio(optionNumber: Int) {
// Reset current response
// set response to optionNumber
// update footer button cooler if necessary
}
private func selectCheckBox(optionNumber: Int) {
// if option is in response
// remove option from response
// else
// add response to option
// update footer button cooler if necessary
}
Hope this can help you
