iOS Can we hide it?

[arnieterm]

I want to hide a custom table view cell in an iphone application. using cell.hidden=YES; does not work. Is it really not possible to hide the cell or does there exists any alternative for hiding the cell.
Thanks

Explain what you're trying to do, why do you need to hide a cell?

Perhaps you could return an empty or blank cell when you get to that particular index?

Getting an array which is bind to the data source of UITableView. There is a column named priority with an integer values of 1,2,3 etc. I need to show cells with priority values of 1 only and need to hide the others. Though an alternative is to cretae another sub array that only contains priorities with value 1. I want to avoid extra sub array so looking for hiding the cells instead

Thanks

So, you're wanting to hide the entire row when the priority isn't 1?

 

[arnieterm]

Yes the entire row [cell] and not any individual control on the cell

I think you need to put logic into numberOfRowsInSection: and cellForRowAtIndexPath: to only populate the cell for priority 1 items then.

Sorry, but an empty or blank cell is not the same thing as no cell at all.
