iOS - when to remove subviews from UITableViewCell
- by Milad Ghattavi
I have a UITableView which a UIImage is added as a subview to each cell of it. The images are PNG transparent. The problem is when I scroll through the UITableView, the images get overlapped and then I receive the memory warning and stuff.
here's the current code for configuring a cell:
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
static NSString *CellIdentifier = @"Cell";
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
if (cell == nil)
{
cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
}
int cellNumber = indexPath.row + 1;
NSString *cellImage1 = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"c%i.png", cellNumber];
UIImage *theImage = [UIImage imageNamed:cellImage1];
UIImageView *cellImage = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:theImage];
[cell.contentView addSubview:cellImage];
return cell;
}
I know the code for removing the UIImage subview would be like:
[cell.imageView removeFromSuperview];
But I don't know where to put it. I've placed it between all the lines; even added an else, in the if statement. didn't seem to work!
