- Cell node automatically notifies the delegate after a relayout (via -setNeedsLayout) that results in a new size. Confirming to ASCellNodeDelegate; ASTableView and ASCollectionView reload the calling cell upon notifications. These views automatically set themselves as delegate of every node.
- The result is that ASCellNode subclasses don't need to manually notify the containing view. Thus, `-relayoutItemAtIndexPath` and `-relayoutRowAtIndexPath` are removed.
- Kittens example is updated to reflect the change.
This provides internal features on _ASAsyncTransaction and ASDisplayNode to facilitate
implementing public API that allows clients to choose if they would prefer to block
on the completion of unfinished rendering, rather than allow a placeholder state to
become visible.
The internal features are:
-[_ASAsyncTransaction waitUntilComplete]
-[ASDisplayNode recursivelyEnsureDisplay]
Also provided are two such implementations:
-[ASCellNode setNeverShowPlaceholders:], which integrates with both Tables and Collections
-[ASViewController setNeverShowPlaceholders:], which should work with Nav and Tab controllers.
Lastly, on ASDisplayNode, a new property .shouldBypassEnsureDisplay allows individual node types
to exempt themselves from blocking the main thread on their display.
By implementing the feature at the ASCellNode level rather than ASTableView & ASCollectionView,
developers can retain fine-grained control on display characteristics. For example, certain
cell types may be appropriate to display to the user with placeholders, whereas others may not.
Follow-up work will include unit tests, revisiting names, and the header locations of definitions.
Eases support for nesting horizontally scrolling elements within a vertical scroller.
Further changes will improve the API, and optimize handling of the nested working ranges.
- In -layoutSubviews of table and collection views, detect changes that cause a different constrained size for nodes, and trigger relayout immediately.
- Orientation change can be handled by this solution. So, no need to observe to its events.
- Update Kittens example to support iPad (easier to catch bugs on these devices) and add a title to navigation bar (looks a bit nicer).
