Creating and Configuring a Table View – iPhone

Table View:

Table Views  are versatile, User Interface objects frequently found in iOS apps. A table view presents data in a scrollable list of multiple rows that may be divided into sections.

Table views have many purposes: 

• To let users navigate through hierarchically structured data.
• To present an indexed list of items.
• To display detail information and controls in visually distinct groupings.
• To present a selectable list of options.

.h file:-

@  interface  TableviewController:  UIviewController

{
IBoutlet   UITableview  *  table view;
NSMutableArray     *    Names;
NSMutableArray    *  Contacts;
Int  count;
}
@ end

.m file:-

-(void) viewDidLoad
{
Tableview.  backgroundColor   =  [  UIColor  ClearColor];
Names= [ NSMutableArray arraywithObjects:
@  “divya”,@  “vamshi”, @ “sony”  @ “santhu”, @ “nani”, nil];
Contacts = [NSMutableArray    arraywithObjects:
@  “123”,  @ “456”, @ “789”, @ “101112”, @ “131415”, nil];
[Super viewDidLoad];
}

{
return 2;
}

{
 If (Section = = 0)
return  [ Names   Count];

}

titleForHeaderInSection:  (NSInteger) Section
{

return @   “NAMES”;

return   @ “Contact No”;
}

{

}

}

}

Table view custom view:-

.h file:-

# import  
@ interface   div table view controller : UIViewController
{

.m file:-
