AdvancedTableViewCells and UITabBar

[heyrick]

Hi everyone,

Very simple, but maybe difficult to answer question.
How do you include an AdvancedTableViewCells (à la AppStore) inside a tab bar item?

(Just like the App Store Top 25 tab bar item)

Thanks for your help !

Table cells have nothing to do with tab bars, so you're going to have to be more specific.

Easily put, I would like to have an exemple on how to realize the same thinf as the top 25 view of the app store application.

Thanks for your help

From what I can tell, the Top 25 has a TabBarController on the bottom and a UINavigationBar with a nested segmented control at the top. Aside from that, the table uses customized UITableViewCell which you can learn more about here....

Custom UITableViewCell in IB Matt Galloway's iPhone Apps
and here...
Using UITableViewCell with InterfaceBuilder Agile Developer, Berlin, Germany
and here...
create UITableViewCell - Google Search

Also, Apple's sample code for the CoreDataRecipe app has custom UITableViewCells built.

Thanks a lot for your help and time, iMerlin !
I will see if that information fits my needs !

Bye for now...

I'm not sure how to implement the Table view inside my Tab bar App.
Bellow is the basic code for my tab bar app and after that is my functionnal code for my advanced table view app (but not yet inside a tab).

How do I change my App Delegate .h and .m ?


My Tab bar App
// File: AppDelegate.h

#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
@interface AppDelegate : NSObject <UIApplicationDelegate> {
UIWindow *window;
UITabBarController *rootController;
}
@property (nonatomic, retain) IBOutlet UIWindow *window;
@property (nonatomic, retain) IBOutlet UITabBarController *rootController;
@end


// File: AppDelegate.m


#import "AppDelegate.h"
@implementation AppDelegate

@synthesize window;
@synthesize rootController;
- (void)applicationDidFinishLaunchingUIApplication *)application {
// Override point for customization after app launch
[window addSubview:rootController.view];
[window makeKeyAndVisible];
}
- (void)dealloc {
[rootController release];
[window release];
[super dealloc];
}
@end

AdvancedTableViewCells

// File: AdvancedTableViewCellsAppDelegate.h

@interface AdvancedTableViewCellsAppDelegate : NSObject <UIApplicationDelegate>
{
UIWindow *window;
UINavigationController *navigationController;
}

@property (nonatomic, retain) IBOutlet UIWindow *window;
@property (nonatomic, retain) IBOutlet UINavigationController *navigationController;

@end



// File: AdvancedTableViewCellsAppDelegate.m


#import "AdvancedTableViewCellsAppDelegate.h"
#import "RootViewController.h"


@implementation AdvancedTableViewCellsAppDelegate

@synthesize window;
@synthesize navigationController;


#pragma mark -
#pragma mark Application lifecycle

- (void)applicationDidFinishLaunchingUIApplication *)application
{
[window addSubview:[navigationController view]];
[window makeKeyAndVisible];
}


#pragma mark -
#pragma mark Memory management

- (void)dealloc
{
[navigationController release];
[window release];
[super dealloc];
}

@end

I'm sorry, but on the top 25 there isn't a tableview nested in the navigation controller. Are you referring to the 3 buttons that have 'top paid', 'top free', and 'top grossing' on them?

No, I only want to know how to nest the list view inside a tab bar controller.

See the table view link in my signature. The tab bar is irrelevant.

If you have no idea how to make a tab bar app, and that's what it is sounding like, then simply make a new project using the tab-based template and observe how it works.
