Question 1

How do I add a custom validation rule in ObjectForm?

Accepted Answer

Provide a closure when creating a row, like in the StringRow example, where you define logic to validate input and return a boolean; invalid rows can be highlighted on save using validateData().

Question 2

ObjectForm vs Eureka for iOS forms: which should I use?

Accepted Answer

ObjectForm is simpler, dependency-free, and better for lightweight UIKit projects with direct model binding. Eureka offers more features and a declarative syntax but has external dependencies and a steeper learning curve.

Question 3

Can I use ObjectForm with SwiftUI?

Accepted Answer

No, ObjectForm is built for UIKit and requires UITableView integration, so it's not compatible with SwiftUI's declarative framework; you'd need to bridge it or use a SwiftUI-native alternative.

Question 4

How to create a custom row type in ObjectForm?

Accepted Answer

Subclass BaseRow or use TypedRow, as shown with TextViewRow in the README, ensuring type safety by implementing the isValueMatchRowType method to match your value type.

Question 5

Does ObjectForm support dynamic form sections that change based on user input?

Accepted Answer

It focuses on static binding to models; dynamic sections require manual updates to the data source and table view reloads, which is possible but not built-in, adding complexity.

Question 6

What keyboard types does ObjectForm automatically set?

Accepted Answer

It sets keyboards based on property types, e.g., numeric for DoubleRow, but for custom types or overrides, you may need to extend rows or cells manually, as it's limited to basic mappings.
