CCTableViewDataSource Protocol Reference

Conforms to NSObject
Declared in CCTableView.h

Overview

Protocol for a CCTableView data source. It is similar to but technically incompatible with the UITableViewDataSource protocol.

For complex table views or such cells which are potentially expensive to create it is recommended that the data source caches the cells after creation, so that when tableView:nodeForRowAtIndex: requests a new set of cells the cached cells can be returned rather than creating all cells anew.

– tableView:nodeForRowAtIndex: required method

Requests a CCTableViewCell for a node at a specific index for the given table view. Should always return a valid cell, ie one created using [CCTableViewCell node] but it doesn’t necessarily have to have any child nodes.

- (id<CCTableViewCellProtocol>)tableView:(CCTableView *)tableView nodeForRowAtIndex:(NSUInteger)index

Parameters

tableView

The CCTableView that is requesting a cell for the index.
index

The index of the cell that is requested.

Return Value

The CCTableViewCell for the given index.

- (NSUInteger)tableViewNumberOfRows:(CCTableView *)tableView

Parameters

tableView

The CCTableView for which the number of rows should be returned.

Return Value

The number of rows in the table view.
