is Force View Controller Orientation working in iOS 16 beta-CodePudding

According to the iOS & iPadOS 16 Beta 3 Release Notes:- Attempting to set an orientation on UIDevice via setValue:forKey: isn’t supported and no longer works. Instead, they say use: preferredInterfaceOrientationForPresentation.

In my case, force view controller orientation is not working in iOS 16 beta either by using preferredInterfaceOrientationForPresentation or requestGeometryUpdate.

Previously, UIDevice.current.setValue(UIInterfaceOrientation.landscapeLeft.rawValue, forKey: "orientation") was working fine.

I noticed my issue seems like resolved by calling method below:

[UIViewController setNeedsUpdateOfSupportedInterface

You may give it a try.

CodePudding user response：

setValue:forKey is a method of old NSObject (NSKeyValueCoding). It's not official documented and supported by UIDevice class. Using it is considering using a private api. Apple can terminate it anytime they want.
