objc tableheader hides tablerows? - iphone

Question

I have a tableView where I added a header section. Somehow the header hides the rows... When I remove the header section, the rows are visible. When I add the header section, it hides the rows. Normally the rows shall be visible after the header section. I have no glue why this does not work...
I have a similar tableView and there it works perfectly with the same setup, header and rows are displayed.
The table header section and rows shall be visible at the same time. How can I do this?
Below the code:
LocationViewController.h
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
#import "SingletonClass.h"
#import "WebApi.h"
#import <AFNetworking/UIImageView+AFNetworking.h>
#interface LocationViewController : UITableViewController
#property (nonatomic, strong) SingletonClass *sshare;
#property (nonatomic, strong) WebApi *swebapi;
#property (strong, nonatomic) IBOutlet UITableView *tableView;
#property (strong, nonatomic) NSString *locationID;
#end
LocationViewController.m
#import "LocationViewController.h"
#interface LocationViewController ()
#end
#implementation LocationViewController
- (id)initWithStyle:(UITableViewStyle)style
{
self = [super initWithStyle:style];
if (self) {
}
return self;
}
- (void)vinit {
self.sshare = [SingletonClass sharedInstance];
self.swebapi = [[WebApi alloc] init];
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:#selector(handleNotification:) name:#"reloadDetails" object:nil ];
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:#selector(handleNotification:) name:NFlocationReload object:nil ];
}
- (void)viewDidLoad
{
[self vinit];
[self.navigationController setNavigationBarHidden:NO animated:NO];
[super viewDidLoad];
self.tableView.tableFooterView = [[UIView alloc] init];
[self getData];
}
- (void)viewDidAppear:(BOOL)animated
{
[self.navigationController setNavigationBarHidden:NO animated:NO];
}
-(void)handleNotification:(NSNotification *)message {
if ([[message name] isEqualToString:#"reloadDetails"]) {
[self.tableView reloadData];
}
if ([[message name] isEqualToString:NFlocationReload]) {
DLog(#"%#, lData", self.sshare.lData);
[self.tableView reloadData];
}
}
- (void)didReceiveMemoryWarning
{
[super didReceiveMemoryWarning];
}
#pragma mark - Table view data source
- (NSInteger)numberOfSectionsInTableView:(UITableView *)tableView
{
return 1;
}
- (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section
{
return self.sshare.lData.count;
}
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:#"locationCell" forIndexPath:indexPath];
NSString *foo = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"row %ld", (long)indexPath.row];
cell.textLabel.text = foo;
DLog(#"logged: %#", foo);
cell.backgroundColor = [UIColor purpleColor];
return cell;
}
-(void)getData {
[self.swebapi getLocationStream:self.locationID];
}

[imageView setBackgroundColor:[UIColor orangeColor]];
imageView.contentMode = UIViewContentModeScaleAspectFill;
[imageView setClipsToBounds:YES];
NSString *photoURL;
if (self.sshare.imageDetails) {
photoURL = self.sshare.imageDetails.url
[imageView setImageWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:photoURL] placeholderImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"foo.jpg"]];
[BGView addSubview:imageView];
}
return BGView;
}
#end

It's missing a delegate method. From the docs on viewForHeaderInSection: ...
The returned object can be a UILabel or UIImageView object, as well as
a custom view. This method only works correctly when
tableView:heightForHeaderInSection: is also implemented.
So add...
- (CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section {
return 174;
}
