Although func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, willDisplayHeaderView view: UIView, forSection section: Int) will work as well, you can acheive this without implementing another delegate method. in you func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, viewForHeaderInSection section: Int) -> UIView? method, you can use view.contentView.backgroundColor = UIColor.white instead of view.backgroundView?.backgroundColor = UIColor.white which is not working. (I know that backgroundView is optional, but even when it is there, this is not woking without implementing willDisplayHeaderView

下面是如何在头视图中添加图像:

- (UIView *) tableView:(UITableView *)tableView viewForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section 
{
    UIView *headerView = [[[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, tableView.bounds.size.width, 30)] autorelease];
    UIImageView *headerImage = [[[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"top-gery-bar.png"]] autorelease];

    headerImage.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, tableView.bounds.size.width, 30);

    [headerView addSubview:headerImage];

    return headerView;
}

Although func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, willDisplayHeaderView view: UIView, forSection section: Int) will work as well, you can acheive this without implementing another delegate method. in you func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, viewForHeaderInSection section: Int) -> UIView? method, you can use view.contentView.backgroundColor = UIColor.white instead of view.backgroundView?.backgroundColor = UIColor.white which is not working. (I know that backgroundView is optional, but even when it is there, this is not woking without implementing willDisplayHeaderView

如果你不想创建一个自定义视图，你也可以像这样改变颜色(需要iOS 6):

-(void) tableView:(UITableView *)tableView willDisplayHeaderView:(UIView *)view forSection:(NSInteger)section {
    if ([view isKindOfClass: [UITableViewHeaderFooterView class]]) {
        UITableViewHeaderFooterView* castView = (UITableViewHeaderFooterView*) view;
        UIView* content = castView.contentView;
        UIColor* color = [UIColor colorWithWhite:0.85 alpha:1.]; // substitute your color here
        content.backgroundColor = color;
    }
}

swift 5 +

在willDisplayHeaderView方法中

func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, willDisplayHeaderView view: UIView, forSection section: Int) {

     //For Header Background Color
     view.tintColor = .black

    // For Header Text Color
    let header = view as! UITableViewHeaderFooterView
    header.textLabel?.textColor = .white
}

我希望这对你有所帮助:]

基于@Dj的回答，使用Swift 3。这在iOS 10上运行得很好。

func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, willDisplayHeaderView view: UIView, forSection section: Int) {
    // Background color
    view.tintColor = UIColor.black

    // Text Color
    let headerView = view as! UITableViewHeaderFooterView
    headerView.textLabel?.textColor = UIColor.white
}
