To avoid checking the iOS version, iteratively walk up the superviews from the cell’s view until a UITableView is found:
Objective-C
id view = [cellInstance superview];
while (view && [view isKindOfClass:[UITableView class]] == NO) {
view = [view superview];
}
UITableView *tableView = (UITableView *)view;
Swift
var view = cellInstance.superview
while (view != nil && (view as? UITableView) == nil) {
view = view?.superview
}
if let tableView = view as? UITableView {
tableView.beginUpdates()
tableView.endUpdates()
}
