Smart 'Lazy Loading' in UICollectionView or UITableView using NSOperation and NSOperationQueue in iOS So in this project we can download the multiple images in any View (UICollectionView or UITableView) by optimising the performance of an app by using Operation and OperationQueue for concurrency. Following are the key point of this project Smart Lazy Loading: Creating image download Service. Prioritise the downloading based on the visibility of cells.
ImageDownloadService class will create a singleton instance and have NSCache instance to cache the images that have been downloaded. We have inherited the Operation class to TOperation to mauled the functionality according to our need. I think the properties of the operation subclass are pretty clear in terms of functionality. We are monitoring operations changes of state by using KVO.
