UIActivityIndicator on UITableViewCell not displaying while calling a webService
- by Yoyi Cheika
Hi coders,
I guess my problem is very simple to solve but I haven been able to do so. Here is my problem:
I have a custom table view cell that contains a UIActivityIndicator. When a cell is selected I push another view but this second view makes a call to a web service to bring data. Here is my code
// Override to support row selection in the table view.
- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
// Navigation logic may go here -- for example, create and push another view controller.
// AnotherViewController *anotherViewController = [[AnotherViewController alloc] initWithNibName:@"AnotherView" bundle:nil];
// [self.navigationController pushViewController:anotherViewController animated:YES];
// [anotherViewController release];
Models *models = [[Models alloc] initWithNibName:@"Models" bundle:nil];
models.make = ((MakeCell *)[tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:indexPath]).make.text;
models.year = (int)[self.yearLabel.text doubleValue];
models.logo = [makeLogosName objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
[((MakeCell *)[tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:indexPath]).activityIndicator startAnimating];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:models animated:YES];
[((MakeCell *)[tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:indexPath]).activityIndicator stopAnimating];
[models release];
}
Where MakeCell is my custom cell. If I comment this line
[((MakeCell *)[tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:indexPath]).activityIndicator stopAnimating];
then the indicator appears as expected when going back to the previous view. I feel like the indicator is not being visually updated until the didSelectRowAtIndexPath returns. Does is works ascyncronically. What can be my problem here.
Thank you very much
Cheika
