如何从自定义单元格中删除表视图行？

Question

I have a custom table view cell with two buttons. If either one is pressed, I want the table view to delete the row. I already know the code for that:

myArray.removeAtIndex(indexPath.row)
tableView.deleteRowsAtIndexPaths([indexPath], withRowAnimation: .Fade)

I just would like to call this from my custom cell. I have it set up like so:

@IBAction func handleDecline(sender: AnyObject)
{
    // Remove table view row 
}

@IBAction func handleApprove(sender: AnyObject)
{
    // Remove table view row
}

How would I go about doing that?

Answer 1

You should not handle deletion of a cell from the cell itself. It violates MVC pattern. Events should be delegated to the view controller and handled there with deleteRows method like this:

tableView.deleteRows(at: [indexPath], with: .fade)

Also tableView's dataSource must be updated accordingly, otherwise app will crash.

Here you can find an example of how you can delegate an event from cell to view controller
