I am trying to load parsed data in cells, but the problem is that it is happening synchronously and UitableView doesn't show until the data has finished loading. I tried to solve the problem by using performSelectorInBackground, but now data isn't loaded in the cells until I start scrolling. Here is my code:
- (void)viewDidLoad
{
[super viewDidLoad];
// Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.
[self performSelectorInBackground:@selector(fethchData) withObject:nil];
}
- (void)viewDidUnload
{
[super viewDidUnload];
// Release any retained subviews of the main view.
self.listData = nil;
self.plot=nil;
}
-(void) fethchData
{
NSError *error = nil;
NSURL *url=[[NSURL alloc] initWithString:@"http://www.website.com/"];
NSString *strin=[[NSString alloc] initWithContentsOfURL:url encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding error:nil];
HTMLParser *parser = [[HTMLParser alloc] initWithString:strin error:&error];
if (error) {
NSLog(@"Error: %@", error);
return;
}
listData =[[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
plot=[[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
HTMLNode *bodyNode = [parser body];
NSArray *contentNodes = [bodyNode findChildTags:@"p"];
for (HTMLNode *inputNode in contentNodes) {
[plot addObject:[[inputNode allContents] stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet:[NSCharacterSet whitespaceAndNewlineCharacterSet]]];
}
NSArray *divNodes = [bodyNode findChildTags:@"h2"];
for (HTMLNode *inputNode in divNodes) {
[listData addObject:[[inputNode allContents] stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet:[NSCharacterSet whitespaceAndNewlineCharacterSet]]];
}
}
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
static NSString *CellIdentifier = @"Cell";
//here you check for PreCreated cell.
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
if (cell == nil) {
cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleSubtitle reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
cell.accessoryType = UITableViewCellAccessoryDisclosureIndicator;
}
//Fill the cells...
cell.textLabel.text = [listData objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
cell.textLabel.font = [UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:14];
cell.textLabel.numberOfLines=6;
cell.textLabel.textColor=[UIColor colorWithHue:0.7 saturation:1 brightness:0.4 alpha:1];
cell.detailTextLabel.text=[plot objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
cell.detailTextLabel.font=[UIFont systemFontOfSize:11];
cell.detailTextLabel.numberOfLines=6;
return cell;
}
