UIRefreshControl at the bottom of the UITableView iOS6?

Question

Is it possibile add UIRefreshControl at the bottom of the UITableView? I would use it to load more data. Please, Any suggest?

Answer 1

For UITableView I suggest the following approach:

-(void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView willDisplayCell:(UITableViewCell *)cell forRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{    
    // if this is the last row that we have in local data
    // and we didn't reach the total count of rows from the server side
    if (count == indexPath.row+1 && count < total)
    {
        // .. fetch more rows and reload table when data comes
    }
}

I didn't use the scroll view methods intentionally because the scroll view is slow. It happens that scroll view scrolls, we request more data, refresh more rows, and scroll view is not yet finished with scrolling, it is still decelerating and causing problems with fetching more data.
