NSFetchedResultsController not updating UITableView's section indexes
- by Luther Baker
I am populating a UITableViewController with an NSFetchedResultsController with results creating sections that populate section headers and a section index. I am using the following method to populate the section index:
- (NSArray *)sectionIndexTitlesForTableView:(UITableView *)tableView {
return [fetchedResultsController_ sectionIndexTitles];
}
and now I've run into a problem. When I add a new element to the NSManagedObjectContext associated with the NSFetchedResultsController, the new element is saved and appropriately displayed as a cell in the UITableView ... except for one thing. If the new element creates a new SECTION, the new section index does not show up in the right hand margin unless I pop the UINavigationController's stack and reload the UITableViewController.
I have conformed to the NSFetchedResultsControllerDelegate's interface and manually invoke
[self.tableView reloadSectionIndexTitles];
at the end of both these delegate methods:
controller:didChangeSection...
controller:didChangeObject...
and while I can debug and trace the execution into the methods and see the reload call invoked, the UITableView's section index never reflects the section changes.
Again, the data shows up - new sections are physically visible (or removed) in the UITableView but the section indexes are not updated.
Am I missing something?
