I think there's a small bug in the grid. If you assign a datasource in viewDidLoad, and then subsequently change it in viewWillAppear and call reload/updateData, it doesn't call the data source methods again until everything has been rendered once. I have worked around this bug buy only assigning the data source once during view initialization. We do this because our view controller has a default data source.
Yup, you can close this. I can't reproduce it either... :P
Hello Caylan,
Did Steve answer your question on this?
Hey Caylan,
I wasn't able to reproduce that behavior.
I've attached a sample.
Note the output in the console:
2015-02-10 09:13:28.827 DataSourceTest[36586:3280345] viewDidLoad Pre DataSource1
2015-02-10 09:13:28.827 DataSourceTest[36586:3280345] DS1 getColCount
