I have a tableview in which i need to populate rows with dynamic height.
What I did:
I have a textlabel whose height will be changing dynamically. So when i set the data on my cell i set it like :
-(void)setCommentDataOnCell:(CommentModel*) data
{
CGFloat currentHeigh=_commentTextLabel.frame.size.height,heightDiff;
//Here is the label with dynamic height
_commentTextLabel.text=data.commentText;
[_commentTextLabel sizeToFit];
[self layoutIfNeeded];
heightDiff=_commentTextLabel.frame.size.height-currentHeigh;
// I change the frame of cell here ie, add the height difference in label
[self setFrame:CGRectMake(self.contentView.frame.origin.x, self.contentView.frame.origin.y, self.contentView.frame.size.width, self.contentView.frame.size.height+heightDiff)];
[self layoutIfNeeded];
commentAuthorLabel.text=data.createdUserName;
}
Now i have set the autolayout such that the dynamic cell is aligned to bottom as well as top of the cell's content view
Then i have set following properties for my tableview
commentListTableView.rowHeight=UITableViewAutomaticDimension;
commentListTableView.estimatedRowHeight=44.0f;
Now To What I get:
*** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: '-[DiscussionDetailViewController tableView:heightForRowAtIndexPath:]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x78787760'
I havent implemented this selector heightForRowAt
but i have implemented EstimatedHeight as 75.0f as it was for my prototype cell in my storyboard i also have a headerview for session with height 8.0f
