Why is -didDeselectRowAtIndexPath not being called?

Question

I created a fresh project (Xcode 4, Master-Detail application) just to see if I\'m doing something wrong, but I still have the same problem. I want to call -reloadData

Answer 1

A clean way of solving this problem is to do the following:

func tableView(tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
    let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier("myCell", forIndexPath: indexPath)
    // Do your cell setup work here...

    //If your cell should be selected...
    if cellShouldBeSelected {
        tableView.selectRowAtIndexPath(indexPath, animated: false, scrollPosition: UITableViewScrollPosition.None)
    }

    return cell
}

This solves this entire problem of a cell not responding to being deselected after a tableView.reloadData()call happens.
