Deleting a UITableViewCell from UITableView

I am using fmdb to manage some data that is display on a regular UITableView. I am attempting to delete one cell using this code: ``` - (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView commitEditingStyle:(UITableViewCellEditingStyle)editingStyle forRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath { if (editingStyle == UITableViewCellEditingStyleDelete) { db = [FMDatabase databaseWithPath:[Utility getDatabasePath]]; [db open]; [db beginTransaction]; NSString * stringtoInsert = [NSString stringWithFormat: @"DELETE FROM TTLogObject WHERE id='%@'", [idArray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row]]; BOOL success = [db executeUpdate:stringtoInsert]; if (!success) { NSLog(@"insert failed!!"); } NSLog(@"Error %d: %@", [db lastErrorCode], [db lastErrorMessage]); [db commit]; [db close]; [self getList]; } } ``` Here is the code for viewDidLoad and the getList function that I am using. ``` - (void)viewDidLoad { [super viewDidLoad]; self.navigationController.navigationBar.tintColor = [UIColor blackColor]; shipperCityArray = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init]; pickupDateArray = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init]; paidArray = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init]; idArray = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init]; //NSString *path = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"tt" ofType:@"db"]; [self getList]; } - (void)getList { db = [FMDatabase databaseWithPath:[Utility getDatabasePath]]; [shipperCityArray removeAllObjects]; [pickupDateArray removeAllObjects]; [paidArray removeAllObjects]; [idArray removeAllObjects]; [db open]; FMResultSet *fResult= [db executeQuery:@"SELECT * FROM TTLogObject"]; while([fResult next]) { [shipperCityArray addObject:[fResult stringForColumn:@"shipperCity"]]; [pickupDateArray addObject:[fResult stringForColumn:@"pickupDate"]]; [paidArray addObject:[NSNumber numberWithBool:[fResult boolForColumn:@"paid"]]]; [idArray addObject:[NSNumber numberWithInteger:[fResult intForColumn:@"id"]]]; NSLog(@"%@", [NSNumber numberWithInteger:[fResult intForColumn:@"id"]]); } [db close]; [self.tableView reloadData]; } ``` The issue is that the data gets deleted just fine from the database. However, after delete is pressed, the table view does not display any cells anymore. When I restart the app, the proper data gets loaded again, with the cell that was deleted actually gone. I suspect it has something to do with `numberOfRowsInSection`. ``` - (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section { NSLog(@"%i", [shipperCityArray count]); return [shipperCityArray count]; } ``` When the app is launched, it prints the proper amount of cells, but when delete is hit, it does not print anything, and seems to not be called. I have attempted to use `[self.tableView beginUpdates]` and `[self.tableView endUpdates]` but those seem to error out stating something about the wrong number of items resulting after the delete. I am not sure how to solve this. If I must use beginUpdates and endUpdates, can someone explain to me how this should be done properly, and what is actually going on?
