I'm trying to reload my table view after updating data in Swift but it doesn't seems to work. When I change tab and go back the table view is reloaded but not automatically. Here is my code:
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// some code
refresh(self)
}
func refresh(sender: AnyObject) {
// Reload the data
self.tableView.reloadData()
}
I don't understand why it works in Objective-C but not in Swift... I also tried to put :
dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), { () -> Void in
self.tableView.reloadData()
})
because I saw this in other post but it doesn't work either.
Thanks for helping
EDIT: My whole View Controller
class HighwaysViewController: UITableViewController {
var highways: [Highway]!
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// Uncomment the following line to preserve selection between presentations
// self.clearsSelectionOnViewWillAppear = false
// Uncomment the following line to display an Edit button in the navigation bar for this view controller.
// self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = self.editButtonItem()
highways = [Highway]()
// On ajoute le "Pull to refresh"
refreshControl = UIRefreshControl()
refreshControl!.addTarget(self, action: Selector("refresh:"), forControlEvents: UIControlEvents.ValueChanged)
tableView.addSubview(refreshControl!)
refresh(self)
}
override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()

func refresh(sender: AnyObject) {
// Afficher l'icône de chargement dans la barre de status
UIApplication.sharedApplication().networkActivityIndicatorVisible = true
// On télécharge les autoroutes
var url = NSURL(string: "http://theurl.com")! // URL du JSON

In your refresh
function, your load completes asynchronously using a closure, but you are updating your activity indicator and reloading your table outside of the closure, so it will execute before the load is completed. You need to move this code inside the closure and ensure that it executes on the main queue (as it updates the UI)
func refresh(sender: AnyObject) {
// Afficher l'icône de chargement dans la barre de status
UIApplication.sharedApplication().networkActivityIndicatorVisible = true
// On télécharge les autoroutes
var url = NSURL(string: "http://theurl.com")! // URL du JSON
var request = NSURLRequest(URL: url) // Création de la requête HTTP
var queue = NSOperationQueue() // Création de NSOperationQueue à laquelle le bloc du gestionnaire est distribué lorsque la demande complète ou échoué
// Envoi de la requête asynchrone en utilisant NSURLConnection
NSURLConnection.sendAsynchronousRequest(request, queue: queue, completionHandler:{(response: NSURLResponse!, data: NSData!, error: NSError!) ->Void in
// Gestion des erreurs de connexion
if error != nil {
// Masquer l'icône de chargement dans la barre de status
UIApplication.sharedApplication().networkActivityIndicatorVisible = false
println(error.localizedDescription)
let errorAlert = UIAlertView(title: "Erreur", message: error.localizedDescription, delegate: self, cancelButtonTitle: "OK")
errorAlert.show()
