Important note if your project doesn’t use ARC: you must add the -fobjc-arc
compiler flag to ODRefreshControl.m
in Target Settings > Build Phases > Compile Sources.
If you are using ODRefreshControl in your app, drop me a line so I can add your app here!
ODRefreshControl is a “pull down to refresh” control for UIScrollView, like the one Apple introduced in iOS6, but available to anyone from iOS4 and up.
- Drag the
ODRefreshControl/ODRefreshControl
folder into your project. - Add the QuartzCore framework to your project.
#import "ODRefreshControl.h"
(see sample Xcode project in /Demo
)
ODRefreshControl *refreshControl = [[ODRefreshControl alloc] initInScrollView:self.scrollView];
To know when the refresh operation has started, add an action method to the UIControlEventValueChanged event of the control
[refreshControl addTarget:self action:@selector(dropViewDidBeginRefreshing:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventValueChanged];
If you’d like to programmatically start the refresh operation, use
[refreshControl beginRefreshing];
Remember to tell the control when the refresh operation has ended
[refreshControl endRefreshing];
The ODRefreshControl
can be customized using the following properties:
@property (nonatomic, strong) UIColor *tintColor; @property (nonatomic, assign) UIActivityIndicatorViewStyle activityIndicatorViewStyle;
This will take a UITableViewController and configure it to use a UIRefreshController if it’s available (running iOS 6) or an ODRefreshController if it isn’t. One or the other will be returned, which you can then customize if necessary.
id *refreshControl = [ODRefreshControl setupRefreshForTableViewController:self withRefreshTarget:self action:@selector(dropViewDidBeginRefreshing:)];
