3,820 PointsConnecting UIViewController with UITableView
Hello, can you help me find a problem ... I want to connect 2 views programmatically the first UIViewController has buttons made with code and want each button to communicate with a tableview specifically because there are 9 tableviews but I want to reuse code and not be doing 9 tableviews in the storyboard, i want to explain better that pressing the button 1 is in the tableview and display information relevant only to that button and so on for each button, using a tableview only made in the storyboard can help me please ... thanks .

All you have to do is assign the array property of your delegate to the array and reload the data. For example, let usa say that your UIViewController has a property
@property (nonatomic, strong) NSArray *arrayWithMyItems;
and you have two array variables, array1 and array2 with different sets of data.
All you have to do is:
self. arrayWithMyItems = array1;
[self.tableView reloadData];
or
self. arrayWithMyItems = array2;
[self.tableView reloadData];
