R – hitting a next button for a UITableViewcell

iteratorobjective cuitableview

I was wondering how I can realize the following:
Creating a next button and when it's tapped the next UITableview row will be selected.

Since a picture is worth a thousand words I've added a screenshot.

As you can see below I added a toolbar and if I press the right button it has to select the next row. Any suggestions on how I can approach this ( I assume with some sort of iterator).

ps. i want the row also to act as if it has been touched ( so i can put an action behind it )

Something like this should do the trick:

- (void)selectNextRow
{
  NSIndexPath *selectedRow = [self.tableView indexPathForSelectedRow];
  NSUInteger row = selectedRow.row;
  NSUInteger section = selectedRow.section;
  ++row;
  if(row >= [self.tableView numberOfRowsInSection:selectedRow.section])
  {
    row = 0;
    ++section;
    if(section >= [self.tableView numberOfSections])
    {
      row = 0;
      section = 0;
    }
  }
  NSIndexPath *rowToSelect = [self tableView:self.tableView willSelectRowAtIndexPath:[NSIndexPath indexPathForRow:row inSection:section]];
  [self.tableView selectRowAtIndexPath:rowToSelect animated:YES scrollPosition:UITableViewScrollPositionMiddle];
  [self tableView:self.tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:rowToSelect];
  // also, post notifications if desired
}

Iphone – Add a UITextField to a UITableView on a button click

This pseudocode might be a starting point:

// define an NSMutableArray called fields

- (IBAction)addField:(id)sender {
    // create a new text field here and add it to the array
    // then reload data
}

- (IBAction)save:(id)sender {
    for(UITextField *textField in fields) {
        // whatever you have to do
    }
}

- (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section {
    // you have as many rows as textfields
    return [fields count];
}

- (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] autorelease];
    }
    // Set up the cell...
    // For row N, you add the textfield N to the array.
    [cell addSubview:(UITextField *)[fields objectAtIndex:indexPath.row]];
}

Ios – UITableViewCell, show delete button on swipe

During startup in (-viewDidLoad or in storyboard) do:

self.tableView.allowsMultipleSelectionDuringEditing = NO;

Override to support conditional editing of the table view. This only needs to be implemented if you are going to be returning NO for some items. By default, all items are editable.

- (BOOL)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView canEditRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
    // Return YES if you want the specified item to be editable.
    return YES;
}

// Override to support editing the table view.
- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView commitEditingStyle:(UITableViewCellEditingStyle)editingStyle forRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
    if (editingStyle == UITableViewCellEditingStyleDelete) {
        //add code here for when you hit delete
    }    
}
