userinteract stop untill activityIndicator stops.

Question

Hi all,

I am parsing an xml, and showing the parsed data into Tableview. Untill the data is fully parsed, i show a activityIndicator ,to user. As the data gets loaded, i make activityIndicator stop. The problem is, if user hits back button before the xml gets parsed, my app gets crashed.

What should i do prevent user to go back,untill table view come up with fully parsed data. or if user hits back before the xml gets parsed,my app shouldnt be crashed.

w8ing for reply

thanks and hv a nice day

Before starting the activityIndicator disable the user interaction of your view and enable it after stopping the indicator.

Say myView is the view that contains the button, table view etc. Then before start :

[myView setUserInteractionEnabled:FALSE]

And after stop :

[myView setUserInteractionEnabled:TRUE]
