This post is mostly for my future reference. I found the documentation of the TTTableViewController’s commitEditingStyle to be lacking. Some of the comments on StackOverflow provide the right answer, but the code wasn’t posted so I struggled for a bit. Below is an example of the version I managed to get running.

TestDataSource.h:

 
@interface TestDataSource : TTListDataSource
    <uitableviewdatasource , TTModelDelegate> {}
 
- (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)table
    numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section;
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView
    cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath;
- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView
    commitEditingStyle:(UITableViewCellEditingStyle)editingStyle
    forRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath;
 
@end</uitableviewdatasource>

TestDataSource.m

 
#import "TableTest.h"
 
@implementation TableTest
 
- (id)init
{
    if (self = [super init])
    {
        UIBarButtonItem *rightButton = [[[UIBarButtonItem alloc]
            initWithTitle:@"Edit"
            style:UIBarButtonSystemItemEdit
            target:self
            action:@selector(toggleEdit)]
        autorelease];
        self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = rightButton;
        self.title = @"Table Test";
        NSArray *items = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:
            [TTTableTextItem itemWithText:@"Item 1"],
            [TTTableTextItem itemWithText:@"Item 2"],
            [TTTableTextItem itemWithText:@"Item 3"],
            nil
        ];
        self.dataSource = [[TestDataSource alloc] initWithItems:items];
        self.tableView.delegate = self;
    }
    return self;
}
 
- (void)toggleEdit
{
    [self.tableView setEditing:!self.tableView.editing animated:YES];
    NSString *label = self.tableView.editing == YES ? @"Done" : @"Edit";
    self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = [[[UIBarButtonItem alloc]
        initWithTitle:label
        style:UIBarButtonSystemItemEdit
        target:self
        action:@selector(toggleEdit)]
    autorelease];
}
