Hide UITableView on touches outside the tableview

Question

I have a small UITableView that is hidden when the view is loaded. When i click on \"SHOW\" UIButton, the UITableView<

Answer 1

Subclass UITableView, override pointInside:withEvent:. It is templated for this reason.

Something like:

-(BOOL)pointInside:(CGPoint) point withEvent:(UIEvent*) event
{
    BOOL pointIsInsideTableView = [super pointInside:point withEvent:event];
    BOOL pointIsOutsideTableView = // Some test
    return pointIsInsideTableView || pointIsOutsideTableView;
}

So you can catch the touch in table view implementation, where it belongs logically in this case.
