I apologise if this has been asked before but I can't find the info I need.

Basically I want a UITableView to be populated using info from a server, similar to the SeismicXML example. I have the parser as a separate object, is it correct to alloc, init an instance of that parser & then tell RootViewController to make it's table data source a copy of the parser's array.

I can't include code because I haven't written anything yet, I'm just trying to get the design right before I start. Perhaps something like:

xmlParser = [[XMLParser alloc] init];

[xmlParser getXMLData];

// Assuming xmlParser stores results in an array called returnedArray

self.tableDataSource = xmlParser.returnedArray

Is this the best way of doing it?
