UITableView: delete section controls

Question

Hello,

Is there a way to add delete controls, like in UITableViewCell, on a table section? I see two ways:

• Use table cell instead of sections.
• Write own UIView section class, which will show delete controls.

Regarding the first way - as I think, it could be an easiest way in my situation.

The second way may be better from the implementation point of view, but it will take more time.

May be I missed another way? Any suggestions?

Answer 1

The only way I see is to provide your UITableViewController Delegate or Subclass with the method called

- (UIView *) tableView:(UITableView *)tableView viewForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section

this gives you the power to display any kind of UIView as a section-header. within this view you can place controls that enable the user to delete sections.

I hope this helps a bit.

cheers
