PTPopoverTableViewController


@interface PTPopoverTableViewController
    : UIViewController <UITableViewDelegate, UITableViewDataSource>

A UITableViewController replacement designed to work well in a popover presentation.

Functionality replicated from UITableViewController includes:

  • Creates a table view with the correct dimensions and autoresizing, setting the dataSource and delegate to self.
  • In -viewWillAppear:, it reloads the table’s data if it’s empty. Otherwise, it deselects all rows (with or without animation) if clearsSelectionOnViewWillAppear is YES.
  • In -viewDidAppear:, it flashes the table’s scroll indicators.
  • Implements -setEditing:animated: to toggle the editing state of the table view.
  • Sets the preferredContentSize to reflect the contentSize and contentInset of the table view.

Unlike the UITableViewController class, this view controller class does NOT adjust the contentInset of the table view when the virtual keyboard is shown.

  • Initializes a PTPopoverTableViewController instance with the specified table view style.

    Declaration

    Objective-C

    - (nonnull instancetype)initWithStyle:(UITableViewStyle)style;

    Swift

    init(style: UITableView.Style)

    Parameters

    style

    The style to use for the table view

    Return Value

    an initialized PTPopoverTableViewController instance

  • Initializes a PTPopoverTableViewController instance with the specified coder.

    Declaration

    Objective-C

    - (nullable instancetype)initWithCoder:(nonnull NSCoder *)coder;

    Swift

    init?(coder: NSCoder)

    Parameters

    coder

    The coder for initialization

    Return Value

  • The table view used by this view controller.

    Declaration

    Objective-C

    @property (nonatomic, strong, null_resettable) UITableView *tableView;

    Swift

  • Whether the table view’s selection should be cleared when -viewWillAppear: is called.

    The default value of this property is YES.
