Could someone pleaes help explain a few questions. I have created an api that returns maybe at most
150 - 200 records (just text data in columns, no images or anything like that). With that being said, what would be the best way to display the data.
1 would it be ok to get the records from a call to the API and load all of them into an array, and then load a table.
2. Would it be better to get all the records and load them into an array and then do some type of paging off the array
when scrolling in the table. I think this is the best option, but would an IPhone's memory allow this. Would I need
to keep track of pagenumber pagesize last loaded in the Table.
3. Would it be bettter to add paging to my api and then keep track of pagenum, pagesize in the ios app, and then
keep making calls to the api when scrolling up or down? This would work, but it would mean constant calls to
the api (where the full colleciton would need to be queried each time (for all the data in query) and then only the
correct pagenumber and size be returned. I think this would be higher overhead and slow.
What is the best way to do this?
David.
