Core Data example, Invalid update: invalid number of rows in section 0
I am novice at iOS and XCode, and am working through a Core Data tutorial and am really stumped. I continually get the error in the error logs of the following:
Exception Type: EXC_CRASH (SIGABRT)
Exception Codes: 0x0000000000000000, 0x0000000000000000
Crashed Thread: 0 Dispatch queue: com.apple.main-thread
Application Specific Information:
iPhone Simulator 235, iPhone OS 4.2 (iPad/8C134)
*** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInternalInconsistencyException', reason: 'Invalid update: invalid number of rows in section 0. The number of rows contained in an existing section after the update (0) must be equal to the number of rows contained in that section before the update (0), plus or minus the number of rows inserted or deleted from that section (1 inserted, 0 deleted).'

Here is my addReservation code:
-(void)addReservation{
// Create and configure a new instance of the Event entity.
Reservations *reservation = (Reservations *)[NSEntityDescription insertNewObjectForEntityForName:@"Reservations" inManagedObjectContext:managedObjectContext];
[reservation setEnd_Time: [[NSDate alloc]init]];
[reservation setReservation_Date:[[NSDate alloc]init]];
[reservation setStart_Time:[NSDate date]];
[reservation setParty_Size: [NSNumber numberWithInt:4]];
[reservation setPhone_Number: [NSNumber numberWithInt: 1234567890]];
[reservation setName: @"Keith"];
[reservation setNotes: @"He's really hot!"];
[reservation setPerson_Responsible: @"Lisa"];
[reservation setTables_Excluded: @"3,5,8"];
NSError *error = nil;
if (![managedObjectContext save:&error]) {
}
[resArray insertObject:reservation atIndex:0];
NSIndexPath *indexPath = [NSIndexPath indexPathForRow:0 inSection:0];
[self.tableView insertRowsAtIndexPaths:[NSArray arrayWithObject:indexPath]
withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationFade];
[self.tableView scrollToRowAtIndexPath:[NSIndexPath indexPathForRow:0 inSection:0] atScrollPosition:UITableViewScrollPositionTop animated:YES];
}
I believe that my resArray is not getting the data from the method that I input in programatically, but I am not sure, and I am not sure how to fix it.
Any help is appreciated.

I would take a look at your implementation of
- (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section
The error you specified occurs when the value returned from numberOfRowsInSection does not equal the previous value plus the number of rows you added using insertRowsAtIndexPaths. If your implementation of numberOfRowsInSection is using [myArray count], then make sure that the array instance used is the same one into which you are adding the reservation entry. If you have not implemented this method, then that would be your problem. Here is an example of how that method should look:
- (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView
numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section {
return [resArray count];
}
As a backup, you can add log statements that list the size of the array before and after the addition, and inside of the numberOfRowsInSection function.

abboodThe order that you delete/insert from the tableView and you delete/insert from the underlying datasource can be important. Apple documentation has updating the view first and then the datasource. However, deleting/inserting from the view internally calls - (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section which, if you're like me, returns the count of the underlying datasource. Because this has not changed, the runtime will complain and crash. So remove from your datasource first, then the view.
- (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section
{
// Return the number of rows in the section.
return [recentImages count];
}
- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView commitEditingStyle:(UITableViewCellEditingStyle)editingStyle forRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
// Delete from underlying data source first!
recentImages = [recentImages removeObjectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
// Then perform the action on the tableView
if (editingStyle == UITableViewCellEditingStyleDelete)
{
[tableView beginUpdates];
[tableView deleteRowsAtIndexPaths:[NSArray arrayWithObject:indexPath]
withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationFade];
[tableView endUpdates];
}
// Finally, reload data in view
[self.tableView reloadData];
}
Peter KellyTo me it looks as if you are inserting the object before you accually make the changes to it. I could be wrong as i am also a novice!
Charlie- (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section {
return [[[self.fetchedResultsController sections] objectAtIndex:section] numberOfObjects];
}
- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView commitEditingStyle:(UITableViewCellEditingStyle)editingStyle forRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
if (editingStyle == UITableViewCellEditingStyleDelete) {
[self.tableView beginUpdates];
// Delete the object that was swiped
YourTableName *objectToDelete = [self.fetchedResultsController objectAtIndexPath:indexPath];
NSLog(@"Deleting (%@)", objectToDelete.fieldname);
[self.managedObjectContext deleteObject: objectToDelete];
[self.managedObjectContext save:nil];
// Delete the (now empty) row on the table
[self.tableView deleteRowsAtIndexPaths:[NSArray arrayWithObject:indexPath] withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationFade];
[self.tableView reloadData];
[self.tableView endUpdates];
}
}
This works when deleting and adding records to a core data table with fetchedResultsController.
