How to reload data from a specific NSMutableArray into a UITableView - ios

Question

Hi I'm using a web service that returns a JSON document. In that document are several objects, each one containing a value for "STATE" (among others like "ADDRESS", "DISTANCE",etc). This "STATE" value can be either "ARCHIVED" or "ACTIVE". What I want to do is to load the objects with "ARCHIVED" value of "STATE" into the archivedProcessTV and the others to activeProcessTV.
I managed to fill both mutable arrays with the desired data but when the TableViews reload, they reload all the objects into the cells.
Here is what I'm doing on connectionDidFinishLoading:
-(void)connectionDidFinishLoading:(NSURLConnection *)connection{
NSLog(#"Entrou no connectionDidFinishLoading");
[UIApplication sharedApplication].networkActivityIndicatorVisible = NO;
process = [[NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData:data options:0 error:nil] objectForKey:#"GetGesturbeDataJsonResult"];
NSInteger i = 0;
archived = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
active = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
for (NSObject *array1 in process) {
while (i <= process.count) {
if([[[process objectAtIndex:i] objectForKey:#"STATE" ] isEqualToString:#"ARCHIVED"])
{
[archived addObject:[process objectAtIndex:i]];
i++;
}else
[active addObject:[process objectAtIndex:i]];
i++;
}
}
[activeProcessTV reloadData];
[archivedProcessTV reloadData];
}
Thanks for your help!
EDIT:
-(UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)atableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
UITableViewCell *cell = [atableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:#"a cell"];
cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:#"a cell"];
cell.textLabel.text = [[process objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] objectForKey:#"DISTANCE"];
return cell;
}

Answer 1

You appear to have 2 problems:
tableView:cellForRowAtIndexPath: does not check which table view is asking for data
You don't use your specific array contents to populate the table views, you use [[process objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] objectForKey:#"DISTANCE"]; which contains all data
So, at the start of tableView:cellForRowAtIndexPath: you should have an if statement which checks the atableView parameter and decides which array to use. Then, edit the line which updates the cell text to use that array.
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)atableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
NSArray *sourceArray;
if (atableView == self.activeProcessTV) {
sourceArray = self.active;
} else {
sourceArray = self.archived;
}
UITableViewCell *cell = [atableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:#"a cell"];
if (cell == nil) {
cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:#"a cell"];
}
cell.textLabel.text = [[sourceArray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] objectForKey:#"DISTANCE"];
return cell;
}
Aside: this code:
UITableViewCell *cell = [atableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:#"a cell"];
cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:#"a cell"];
needs to be changed to:
UITableViewCell *cell = [atableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:#"a cell"];
if (cell == nil) {
cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:#"a cell"];
}
as currently you're always creating a new cell even if you did get a reusable one back...

In-spite of using sourcearray just pass like that below and check:-
-(UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)atableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
UITableViewCell *cell = [atableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:#"a cell"];
if (cell == nil){
cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:#"a cell"];
}
if ( atableView ==self.activeProcessTV) {
cell.textLabel.text = [[self.activeProcessTV objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] objectForKey:#"DISTANCE"];
}
else{
cell.textLabel.text = [[self.archived objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] objectForKey:#"DISTANCE"];
}
return cell;
}
Note: Pass the correct array count inside numberOfRowsInSection method of UITableView.
