How to add uiview in uitableviewcell - objective-c

Question

Hope all of you'll be fine.
I have a little issue in my application. I have a tableview with custom-cell. In my custom-cell class i made a uiview
UIView* cellView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:self.contentView.frame];
cellView.backgroundColor = [UIColor grayColor];
[self.contentView addSubview:cellView];
Problem is uiview is not fitting in my cell frame properly. Cellforrow is as :
- (SummaryViewCell*)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
static NSString *cellIdentifier = #"cell";
SummaryViewCell *cell = (SummaryViewCell *)[tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:cellIdentifier];
if(cell == nil)
{
cell = [[SummaryViewCell alloc] init];
}
cell.backgroundColor = [UIColor blueColor];
return cell;
}
I have tried initWithFrame:self.contentView.frame] but same problem happened (uiview appear in cell but cover only half of the cell), I also have tried cellView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0,0,self.frame.size.width and same as for height) but failed. Need your valuable advise and ideas. Many Thanks.

Answer 1

Where did you creating subview?
Try to do it in -layoutSubviews method.
- (void)layoutSubviews {
[super layoutSubviews];
UIView* cellView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:self.contentView.frame];
cellView.backgroundColor = [UIColor grayColor];
[self.contentView addSubview:cellView];
}
All frames for subviews are already calculated inside this method and you should receive correct width\height for your subview.

Can you try setting clip to bounds
[cellView setClipsToBounds:YES];
