SWRevealViewController Different Content based on Current View

Question

I'm using SWRevealViewController to get the side menu to show different content based on which tab the user is currently on. I've created a global variable in called location in AppDelegate to find out where the user is. For my sidebar, I'm using this condition to change the content:

- (void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated {
[super viewDidAppear:animated];

AppDelegate *del=(AppDelegate*)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];

if ([del.location  isEqualToString: @"Secure"]){
self.menu = [NSMutableArray
             arrayWithObjects:@"secure1",@"secure2",@"secure3",@"secure4",@"secure5", nil];
self.menu2 = [NSMutableArray
              arrayWithObjects:@"s1",@"s2",@"s3",nil];
    NSLog(@"THIS IS %@ menu",del.location);
}
else if ([del.location  isEqualToString: @"Employee"]){
    self.menu = [NSMutableArray
                 arrayWithObjects:@"emp1",@"emp2",@"emp3",@"emp4",@"emp5",@"emp6", nil];
    self.menu2 = [NSMutableArray
                  arrayWithObjects:@"e1",@"e2",@"e3",nil];
    NSLog(@"THIS IS %@ menu",del.location);
}
else if ([del.location  isEqualToString: @"Patient"]){
    self.menu = [NSMutableArray
                 arrayWithObjects:@"patient1",@"patient2",@"patient3",@"patient4",@"patient5",@"patient6", nil];
    self.menu2 = [NSMutableArray
                  arrayWithObjects:@"p1",nil];
    NSLog(@"THIS IS %@ menu",del.location);
}
}

It seems to be working as the NSLog statements all come out correctly, but the content for menu and menu2 still do not change. Where am I going wrong?

Answer 1

I wasn't adding the

[self.tableView reload]; 

after closing the if-statement, and instead added it under cellForRowAtIndexPath (which lead the cells to constantly reload, but not the table -- if my understanding is correct.)

Added it in the viewWillAppear after closing my if-statement and problem solved.

Thanks to Anbu.Karthik for pointing it out!
