如何直接在UITableView中编辑行，而无需进入编辑模式

Question

In a UITableView , I would like to be able to edit the cell.textLabel.text property of the row, when such row is touched.

In other terms, I would like to be able to edit the row directly touching it, instead of entering into edit mode.

How can I implement this?

- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{

    static NSString *CellIdentifier = @"Cell";

    CMTableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
    if (cell == nil) {
        cell = [[[CMTableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier] autorelease];
    }

    int tagsCount = [[currentComic Tags] count];

    [[cell textField] setTag:[indexPath row]];
    [[cell textField] setText:[tagsDisplayName objectAtIndex:[indexPath row]]];

    return cell;
}

And this is the subclass CMTableViewCell:

...

-(void)viewDidLoad
{    
    textField = [[UITextField alloc] init];
    [textField setFrame:CGRectMake(5,5,50,400)];
    [self addSubview:textField];
}

Answer 1

Add UITextField without borders as subview. Before adding it to subview - set Tag nubmer to UITextField from indexPath.row at tableview cellForRowAtIndexPath method. When user entered data - save it with UITextFieldDelegate methods when "Return" button was pressed. Unfortunately I can't give you code, because right now I'm on Windows. Home this will help

UPDATE : Tag number needed to change data in your DataSource. When you pressed "Return" button in your UITextField, you can save changed by getting UITableViewCell by this tag number from UITextField.

It's simple:

- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView
                             didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
    [tableView deselectRowAtIndexPath:indexPath animated:YES];

    UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:indexPath];
    cell.textLabel.text = @"...";
}

UPDATE

- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView
                             didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
    UITextField *textField = [[UITextField alloc] init];
    [textField setTag:[indexPath row]];
    [tagsTableView addSubview:textField];
    FreeAndNil(textField);
}
