Add new row at first on TableView IOS - iphone

Question

I want to update data in tableView and get new data inserted as the new initial rows in a UITableView.
I have two arrays: FileName Array contains data that I get from the server using ParseXM and a temp array used to copy from FileNameArray. I wrote a function UpdateArray to get new data, I copy data from FileNameArray to temp array in ViewDidLoad() and then call UpdateArray; first I remove all entries in FileNameArray, send a request to the server calling ParseXML thereafter, then I compare FileNameArray and temp Array, if FileName arr > temp arr : remove all entries in temp arr and copy from FileName arr to temp arr, then reload data for UITableview but tableView does not show new data in the first row(s).
cellForRowAtIndexPath():
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
NSArray* FileNamereversed = [[FileCompletedArray reverseObjectEnumerator] allObjects];
NSArray* UploadTimereversed = [[UploadTimeArray reverseObjectEnumerator] allObjects];
static NSString *CellIdentifier = #"Cell";
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
if (cell == nil)
{
cell = [[[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier] autorelease];
UILabel *FileNameLabel = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(10, 0, 100, 30)];
FileNameLabel.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
FileNameLabel.font = [UIFont fontWithName:#"Helvetica" size:16];
FileNameLabel.font = [UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:16];
FileNameLabel.textColor = [UIColor blackColor];
NSLog(#"Reseversed TEMP array %#",FileNamereversed);
FileNameLabel.text =[FileNamereversed objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
[cell.contentView addSubview: FileNameLabel];
[FileNameLabel release];
UILabel *UploadTimeLabel = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(10, 20, 300, 25)];
UploadTimeLabel.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
UploadTimeLabel.font = [UIFont fontWithName:#"Helvetica" size:14];
UploadTimeLabel.textColor = [UIColor grayColor];
UploadTimeLabel.text = [UploadTimereversed objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
[cell.contentView addSubview: UploadTimeLabel];
[UploadTimeLabel release];
UILabel *CompleteLabel = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(140, 12, 170, 25)];
CompleteLabel.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
CompleteLabel.font = [UIFont fontWithName:#"Helvetica" size:14];
CompleteLabel.textColor = [UIColor darkGrayColor];
CompleteLabel.text =#"Completed";
CompleteLabel.textAlignment = NSTextAlignmentRight;
[cell.contentView addSubview: CompleteLabel];
[CompleteLabel release];
}
//[temp removeAllObjects];
// temp = [FileCompletedArray mutableCopy];
return cell;
}
Update Array ():
-(void)updateArray{
[NSThread sleepForTimeInterval:4.0];
[FileCompletedArray removeAllObjects];
...
AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation = [[AFHTTPRequestOperation alloc] initWithRequest:afRequest];
[operation setCompletionBlockWithSuccess:^(AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation, id responseObject) {
NSLog(#"Success");
NSString * parsexmlinput = [[NSString alloc] initWithData:responseObject encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
NSLog(#"Response in Loop CompleteView: %#", parsexmlinput); //000400010001
// dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{
[self parseXMLFile:parsexmlinput];
NSLog(#"File Completed array: %#", FileCompletedArray);
NSLog(#"File Temp out array: %#", temp);
NSLog(#"File Completed count: %lu",(unsigned long)[ FileCompletedArray count]);
NSLog(#"File Temp out count: %lu", (unsigned long)[temp count]);
// NSLog(#"State: %#", state);
if([FileCompletedArray count ] != [temp count]) // compare 2 array
{
[temp removeallObjects];
temp = [FileCompletedArray mutableCopy];
[_tableView reloadData];
}
else
{
NSLog(#"2 array equal");
}
}
When I call UpdateArray, although server has new data but the two arrays equal each other so my tableView does not update.
Can you show me the solution? Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

For updating the table view you have to update your array as per your requirement.
You can add object to as: [yourArray insertObject:object atIndex:0]; //for first row.
Then reload table with new array :[yourTable reloadData]
this will work for you.

Answer 2

#V-Xtreme answer is right and another option is...
And also For do this types of work you need to use insertRowsAtIndexPaths:withRowAnimation: Method such like
[self.tableview insertRowsAtIndexPaths:indexPath withRowAnimation:YES ];
Where indexPath contains the row number that you want to add it.
