Adding two Table Views to the main View in Xcode

Question

I placed two Table View\'s onto my main.storyboard. I then created two new .swift class files for them: VideoTableViewController and LinkTableViewController. How do I link t

Answer 1

If you want 2 tableviews in the same view controller do the following:

1. Create a UIViewController that is a delegate to

   UITableViewDelegate, UITableViewDataSource
   

2. Add 2 uitableviews to this view controller in the storyboard

3. Add 2 IBOutlets for the UITableViews in your ViewController.h file like this:

   @property (nonatomic, weak) IBOutlet UITableView *tableView1;
   @property (nonatomic, weak) IBOutlet UITableView *tableView2;
   

4. Connect the IBOutlets to these.

5. Add the delegate functions for the tableview in the .m file somethng like this:

    - (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section
    {
       // Return the number of rows in the section.
       if(tableView == self.tableView1){
           return whatever1;
       }
   
       if(tableView == self.tableView2){
           return whatever2;
       }
    }
