Keyboard not showing when tableView.reloadData() inside textFieldDidBeginEditing - ios

Question

I put UITextField inside UITableViewCell and want to make highlight tableViewCell and unselected tableViewCell goes original color if user key-in inside each UITextField. So, I did like that.
func textFieldDidBeginEditing(_ textField: UITextField) {
defaultIndex = textField.tag
dynamicFormTable.reloadData()
}
But problem is Keyboard is not showing when I've added dynamicFormTable.reloadData(). Please let me know how to resolve it. Thanks.

Following code will give good result, to avoid reloads
var cellBGColr = [Int : UIColor]()
var previouselectedRow = [Int]()
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
for i in 0..<70 // numberOfRows
{
cellBGColr[i] = UIColor.white
}
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return 70
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "table", for: indexPath) as! TblTableViewCell
cell.backgroundColor = cellBGColr[indexPath.row]
cell.selectionStyle = .none
return cell
}
func textViewShouldBeginEditing(_ textView: UITextView) -> Bool {
let cellPosition = textView.superview?.convert(CGPoint.zero, to: tblView)
let indPath : IndexPath = tblView.indexPathForRow(at: cellPosition!)!
let cell = tblView.cellForRow(at: indPath) as! TblTableViewCell
var previousSelectedCellRow : Int = -1 // FOR VALIDATION
if previouselectedRow.count == 0 // FIRST EDIT
{
previouselectedRow.append(indPath.row)
}
else
{
previousSelectedCellRow = previouselectedRow[0]
if previousSelectedCellRow == indPath.row // SAME ROW EDITING AGAIN
{
}
else // NEW ROW
{
let previousIndPath : IndexPath = IndexPath(row: previousSelectedCellRow, section: 0)
if (tblView.indexPathsForVisibleRows?.contains(previousIndPath))!
{
let previousCell = tblView.cellForRow(at: previousIndPath) as! TblTableViewCell
previousCell.backgroundColor = UIColor.white
cellBGColr[previousSelectedCellRow] = UIColor.white
}
else
{
cellBGColr[previousSelectedCellRow] = UIColor.white
}
previouselectedRow.remove(at: 0)
previouselectedRow.append(indPath.row)
}
}
cell.backgroundColor = UIColor.red // HERE YOU CAN CHANGE UR CELL COLOR
cellBGColr[indPath.row] = UIColor.red // HERE STORED IN DICT
return true
}
On scrolling your tableview, or somewhere you try to reload, cell background color will not change / reuse.

When reloadData is called it resigns first responder. But you can use beginUpdates/endUpdates methods:
dynamicFormTable.beginUpdates()
dynamicFormTable.reloadRows(at: [IndexPath(row: defaultIndex, section: 0)], with .none)
dynamicFormTable.endUpdates()
