Hide remove separator line if UITableViewCells are empty [duplicate]

Even simpler than Andrey Z's reply: Simply make a bogus tableFooterView in your UITableView class:

self.tableFooterView = [UIView new]; // to hide empty cells

and Swift:

tableFooterView = UIView()

You can hide UITableView's standard separator line by using any one of the below snippets of code. The easiest way to add a custom separator is to add a simple UIView of 1px height:

UIView* separatorLineView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 1)];
separatorLineView.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor]; // set color as you want.
[cell.contentView addSubview:separatorLineView];

OR

    self.tblView=[[UITableView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0,0,320,370) style:UITableViewStylePlain];
    self.tblView.delegate=self;
    self.tblView.dataSource=self;
    [self.view addSubview:self.tblView];

    UIView *v = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 10)];
    v.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
    [self.tblView setTableHeaderView:v];
    [self.tblView setTableFooterView:v];
    [v release];

OR

- (float)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForFooterInSection:(NSInteger)section {
    // This will create a "invisible" footer
    return 0.01f;
}

- (UIView *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView viewForFooterInSection:(NSInteger)section
{
    // To "clear" the footer view
    return [[UIView new] autorelease];
}

OR

And also check nickfalk's answer, it is very short and helpful too. And you should also try this single line,

self.tableView.tableFooterView = [[UIView alloc] init];

Not sure but it's working in all the version of iOS that I checked, with iOS 5 and later, up to iOS 7.

Updated answer for swift & iOS 9. This works for tableviews of the .Plain variety.

 tableView.tableFooterView = UIView()
