Reloading TableView using UISegmentedControl in Swift
I am creating a search screen where you can select among four different options. If one selects people, then people array gets loaded in table view cells , if he selects images then image posts get loaded in tableview .
how can i achieve the design posted above? i have created four different cells and nib files and based on the option selected in segment control , i have to load those nib files in table cell.
UPDATE ::::
I am updating all my code here which i have combined into one file.
import UIKit
import Alamofire
class SearchViewController: UIViewController , UITableViewDataSource , UITableViewDelegate , UISearchBarDelegate{
var imagepost : ImageSeachPostData!
var imageposts = [ImageSeachPostData]()
var videopost : VideoSeachPostData!
var videoposts = [VideoSeachPostData]()
var statuspost : StatusSearchPostData!
var statusposts = [StatusSearchPostData]()
var penpalpost : PenpalSearchPostData!
var penpalposts = [PenpalSearchPostData]()
var tablearray : NSArray = []

func searchBar(_ searchBar: UISearchBar, textDidChange searchText: String) {

searchTable.reloadData()
view.endEditing(true)

searchTable.reloadData()
}

func searchPassed()
{
let searchText = "Postpositives"
print(searchText)
var request = URLRequest(url: URL(string: "https://www.example.com/search")!)
request.httpMethod = "GET"
let postString = "q=\(searchText)"
request.httpBody = postString.data(using: .utf8)
let task = URLSession.shared.dataTask(with: request) { data, response, error in

Solution
Use selectedSegmentIndex property of UISegmentedControl to handle the UITableViewDataSource according to the selected segment.
Example:
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int
{
let selectedIndex = self.segmentedControl.selectedSegmentIndex
switch selectedIndex
{
case 0:
return peopleArray.count
case 1:
return imagesArray.count
//Add other cases here
default:
return 0
}
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell
{
let selectedIndex = self.segmentedControl.selectedSegmentIndex
switch selectedIndex
{
case 0:
return tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "peopleCell", for: indexPath) //Do your custom handling whatever required.
case 1:
return tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "imageCell", for: indexPath)
//Add other cases here
default:
return UITableViewCell()
}
}
@IBAction func onChangeSegment(_ sender: UISegmentedControl)
{
self.tableView.reloadData()
}
