ios - Cell deletion animation not kicking in from didSelectRowAtIndexPath: -

basically, when select specific row, wand rows table view removed. have following code:

-(void)removerows:(int)i { nsindexpath *ip = [nsindexpath indexpathforrow:i insection:0]; uitableviewcell *cell = [_table cellforrowatindexpath:ip]; cgrect newframe;  if(i%2==0){     newframe = cell.frame;     newframe.origin.x = -[uiscreen mainscreen].bounds.size.width; }else{     newframe = cell.frame;     newframe.origin.x = [uiscreen mainscreen].bounds.size.width; } [uiview animatewithduration:0.2 delay:0 options:0                  animations:^{cell.frame = newframe;}                  completion: ^(bool finished){                      if(i == 0){                          [datasource removeallobjects];                          [_homescreenview.proustpacks reloaddata];                      } }];   } 

this method called each row in reverse order. works great if use delete button (which not part of tableview), want same animation , action when user taps specific cell, like:

- (void)tableview:(uitableview *)tableview didselectrowatindexpath:(nsindexpath *)indexpath { if([(something*)[datasource objectatindex:indexpath.row] iswhatiwant]){     [nstimer scheduledtimerwithtimeinterval:0.2 target:self selector:@selector(remove) userinfo:nil repeats:no];     [nstimer scheduledtimerwithtimeinterval:0.4 target:self selector:@selector(gotonext:) userinfo:nil repeats:no]; }  } 

where "gotonext:" pushes next controller navigationcontroller , removepacks is:

-(void)remove{     int aux = _datasource.count -1;     for(int i=aux;i>=0;i--){         [self removerows:i]; }  }  

i think can use answer:

basically need give indexpaths remove function , select animation want. don't forget change collection well.
