Create TableView in some UIView, Objective c - ios

Question

In my ViewController I have a little UIView. How do I programmatically create a TableView instead of this "blue" UIView.
I have this code for my UIView.
self.viewForTableView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(self.view.frame.size.width/2,
self.navigationController.navigationBar.frame.size.height,
self.view.frame.size.width/2,
self.view.frame.size.height)];
self.viewForTableView.backgroundColor = [UIColor blueColor];
[self.view addSubview:self.viewForTableView];
That's how I would like to have it preview.

Answer 1

Swift
let tblVW:UITableView = UITableView(frame: viewForTableView.frame)
viewForTableView.addSubview(tblVW)
tblVW.delegate = self
tblVW.dataSource = self
Objective-c
UITableView *tblView = [[UITableView alloc]initWithFrame:viewForTableView.frame];
[viewForTableView addSubview:tblView];
tblView.delegate = self;
tblView.dataSource = self;
you need to implement following methods:
#pragma mark - Table View Data source
- (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section{
return 0//number rows you want in table
}
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
static NSString *cellIdentifier = #"cellID";
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:cellIdentifier];
if (cell == nil) {
cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc]initWithStyle:
UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:cellIdentifier];
}
return cell;
}
- (NSInteger)numberOfSectionsInTableView:(UITableView *)tableView
{
return 2; //by default is 1
}

viewcontroller.h
#interface yourViewController ()<UITableViewDelegate,UITableViewDataSource>
{
IBOutlet UITableView *tbleView;
}
Viewcontroller.m
- (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];
tbleView.delegate=self;//for delegate methods
tbleView.datasource=self;//for datasource methods
tbleView.backgroundColor=//yourColor
tbleView.frame=CGRectMake(//your frame);
[yourView addSubview tbleView];
}
