iPhone: Waiting until selectrow animation finishes before pushing viewcontroller?

Question

My code looks like this:

NSIndexPath *ip = [NSIndexPath indexPathForRow:15 inSection:0];
[[self tableView] selectRowAtIndexPath:ip animated:YES scrollPosition:UITableViewScrollPositionMiddle];

// Pause needed here until animation finishes

[[self navigationController] pushViewController:secondView animated:YES];

Right now it animates the scroll/selection of the row and pushes the view controller at the same time. What I would like it to do is wait until it finishes the scroll/selection and then push the view controller. Is there any possible way of doing this? Thanks

Answer 1

Is there a reason you don't push the view controller in your -tableView:didSelectRowAtIndexPath: delegate method? That method should be called once the animation is complete.

Answer 2

The tableview should call scrollViewDidEndScrollingAnimation when the scrolling ends. Try putting the push in that method:

- (void)scrollViewDidEndScrollingAnimation:(UIScrollView *)scrollView
{
    if (weShouldPushSecondView)
    {
        weShouldPushSecondView = NO;
        [[self navigationController] pushViewController:secondView animated:YES];
    }
}

You might need to use a bool ivar that you set to YES right after the selectRowAtIndexPath because the scrollViewDidEndScrollingAnimation may be called at other times for other scrolls.
