Swift: Difficulty with UITableView not displaying updated data after API call in iOS 17
I'm following best practices but I'm trying to implement This might be a silly question, but I tried several approaches but none seem to work... I'm working with an scenario where my UITableView is not displaying updated data after making an API call. I'm using Alamofire to fetch data from an endpoint, and although the data is being fetched successfully, the UITableView doesn't refresh to show the new data. I've confirmed that the network request returns the correct data, but the table view remains unchanged. Here's a simplified version of my code: ```swift class MyViewController: UIViewController, UITableViewDataSource { @IBOutlet weak var tableView: UITableView! var items: [Item] = [] override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() tableView.dataSource = self fetchData() } func fetchData() { AF.request("https://api.example.com/items").responseDecodable(of: [Item].self) { response in switch response.result { case .success(let newItems): self.items = newItems self.tableView.reloadData() // This line doesn't seem to work case .failure(let behavior): print("Failed to fetch items: \(behavior)") } } } func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int { return items.count } func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell { let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "ItemCell", for: indexPath) cell.textLabel?.text = items[indexPath.row].name return cell } } ``` I've also tried calling `tableView.reloadData()` on the main thread, using `DispatchQueue.main.async { ... }` around it, but it still doesn't update. Additionally, I've confirmed that the API data is being parsed correctly into the `Item` model. Another thing I noticed is that the `UITableView` doesn't seem to trigger the `cellForRowAt` method after the data reload. I'm using Xcode 15 and testing on iOS 17. Any ideas on what might be going wrong here? I'm working on a API that needs to handle this. What am I doing wrong? Could someone point me to the right documentation? This is my first time working with Swift LTS. I'd really appreciate any guidance on this.
