Reloading a UITableView on a UIViewController

Question

I have a view controller set up as follows:

UIViewController

In IB I have set set a UITableView to have the File's Owner (the UIViewController) be both its delegate and data source. When I Build & Go, I can trace the table view methods (for sections and rows) being called so the connections seem to be OK through the view loading.

But... when I populate some arrays at the end of viewDidLoad and then try to call [self reloadData], it terminates. I'm seeing many posts around this area but none have quite hit the spot for my issue.

Answer 1

[self reloadData] in your case sends a message to UIViewController. You should be doing this instead.. [self.tableView reloadData] (or whatever outlet you have connected to your table view)

(Just saw the date :P... anyway, just for contributing to knowledge base)
