[ios] 'Invalid update: invalid number of rows in section 0

I've read all of the related posts regarding this and I am still having an error:

'Invalid update: invalid number of rows in section 0.  The number of rows contained in an existing section after the update (5) must be equal to the number of rows contained in that section before the update (5), plus or minus the number of rows inserted or deleted from that section (0 inserted, 1 deleted) and plus or minus the number of rows moved into or out of that section (0 moved in, 0 moved out).'

Here are the details:

in .h I have an NSMutableArray:

@property (strong,nonatomic) NSMutableArray *currentCart;

In .m my numberOfRowsInSection looks like this:

- (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section
{
    // Return the number of rows in the section.


    return ([currentCart count]);

}

To enable delete and remove the object from the array:

// Editing of rows is enabled
- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView commitEditingStyle:(UITableViewCellEditingStyle)editingStyle forRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
    if (editingStyle == UITableViewCellEditingStyleDelete) {

        //when delete is tapped
        [tableView deleteRowsAtIndexPaths:[NSArray arrayWithObject:indexPath] withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationFade];

        [currentCart removeObjectAtIndex:indexPath.row];


    }
}

I thought that by having my number of sections relying on the count of the array I'm editing it would ensure the proper number of rows? Can't this be done without having to reload the table when you delete a row anyway?

In my case issue was that numberOfRowsInSection was returning similar number of rows after calling tableView.deleteRows(...).

Since this was the required behaviour in my case, I ended up calling tableView.reloadData() instead of tableView.deleteRows(...) in cases where numberOfRowsInSection will remain same after deleting a row.

Here is some code from above added with actual action code (point 1 and 2);

func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, trailingSwipeActionsConfigurationForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UISwipeActionsConfiguration? {
    let deleteAction = UIContextualAction(style: .destructive, title: "Delete") { _, _, completionHandler in

        // 1. remove object from your array
        scannedItems.remove(at: indexPath.row)
        // 2. reload the table, otherwise you get an index out of bounds crash
        self.tableView.reloadData()

        completionHandler(true)
    }
    deleteAction.backgroundColor = .systemOrange
    let configuration = UISwipeActionsConfiguration(actions: [deleteAction])
    configuration.performsFirstActionWithFullSwipe = true
    return configuration
}

Swift Version --> Remove the object from your data array before you call

func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, commit editingStyle: UITableViewCellEditingStyle, forRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) {
    if editingStyle == .delete {
        print("Deleted")

        currentCart.remove(at: indexPath.row) //Remove element from your array 
        self.tableView.deleteRows(at: [indexPath], with: .automatic)
    }
}
