UIActivityIndicatorView

[aldcorn@live.com]

Hey Guys,
I have a table the starts an UIActivityIndicatorView (spinner) while an new view is being pushed based on a selected row. My app uses a navigation structure so when I press the back button my UIActivityIndicatorView (spinner) is still spinning.

How would I go about stopping this spinner when I navigate back to it?
Here is my code:
.m file where the spinner starts based on a row selection while pushing a new view:

- (void)viewDidLoad {
    [super viewDidLoad];
[progressInd setHidesWhenStopped:YES];
[progressInd stopAnimating];
}

- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
	self.hidesBottomBarWhenPushed = YES;
	[tableView deselectRowAtIndexPath:indexPath animated:YES];
	
	if ([[fromPumpList objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] isEqual:@"One Hose Size"])
	{
		HandlinesViewController3 *detail = [[HandlinesViewController3 alloc] initWithNibName:@"HandlinesViewController3" bundle:nil];
		[detail setTitle:@"Discharge Pressure"];
		[self.navigationController pushViewController:detail animated:YES];
		[progressInd startAnimating];

	}	}

The code above does work to show the spinner.

The problem is when I navigate back to the view and the spinner is still spinning.

I have spent about an hour and a half trying to find an example to help me. I am still learning so if you have the time please help me place my stopAnimating code in the right place.

Thanks,
Rob

you can implements these methods in your controller to get the desired behavior:

- (void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated { }
- (void)viewWillDisappear:(BOOL)animated {}
- (void)viewDidAppear:(BOOL)animated {}
- (void)viewDidDisappear:(BOOL)animated {}

in your case you could put [progressInd stopAnimating] in viewWillAppear instead of viewDidLoad, so it get called every time the table will be displayed, stopping the spinning activity view when you navigate back.

Ahhh! it feels so good.
Thanks for taking time to help me with this.

viewWillAppear works great.

Thanks again,
