adding UITableView with code

Question

Hi I am very very new to the iPhone programming. I am kind of playing with the sample code. My first question is if it is possible to add the UITableView with the code only. If it is then here is my code that i am trying to add UITableView to the navigation controller.

analyticsTable = [[UITableView alloc] init];    
[self.view.window addSubview:analyticsTable];
[self.view removeFromSuperview];

I dont know how to go about it

Thanks Varun

Answer 1

You need to set a frame, delegate and datasource. See this for more info

Read to the bottom.

Answer 2

Take a look at the docs provided by Apple at http://developer.apple.com/iphone/library/documentation/userexperience/conceptual/TableView_iPhone/CreateConfigureTableView/CreateConfigureTableView.html

Check about halfway down the bottom in the section "Creating a Table View Programmatically". I think that's exactly what you want.

These taught me how to programmatically do tables. I've never needed to use IB.
