Static NSArray of strings - how/where to initialize in a View Controller

Question

In a Master-Detail app I\'d like to display a TableView with 5 sections titled:

1. Your Move
2. Their Move
3. Won Games
4. Lost Games
5. O

Answer 1

You should declare your static array above @implementation.

static NSArray *titles_1 = nil;

@implementation ...

And define it in init or awakeFromNib or any other method like viewDidLoad, applicationDidFinishLaunching wherever you want.

- (void)initMethod{ //change the method name accordingly

    if (titles_1 == nil){
        [self setTitles_1:@[ @"Your Move", @"Their Move", @"Won Games", @"Lost Games", @"Options" ]];
    }
}
