How do I set the height of tableHeaderView (UITableView) with autolayout?

Question

I\'m been smashing my head against the wall with this for last 3 or 4 hours and I can\'t seem to figure it out. I have a UIViewController with a full screen UITableView insi

In my case viewDidLayoutSubviews worked better. viewWillLayoutSubviews causes white lines of a tableView to appear. Also I added checking if my headerView object already exists.

- (void)viewDidLayoutSubviews
{
    [super viewDidLayoutSubviews];

    if ( ! self.userHeaderView ) {
        // Setup HeaderView
        self.userHeaderView = [[[NSBundle mainBundle] loadNibNamed:@"SSUserHeaderView" owner:self options:nil] objectAtIndex:0];
        [self.userHeaderView setNeedsLayout];
        [self.userHeaderView layoutIfNeeded];
        CGFloat height = [self.userHeaderView systemLayoutSizeFittingSize:UILayoutFittingCompressedSize].height;
        CGRect headerFrame = self.userHeaderView.frame;
        headerFrame.size.height = height;
        self.userHeaderView.frame = headerFrame;
        self.tableView.tableHeaderView = self.userHeaderView;

        // Update HeaderView with data
        [self.userHeaderView updateWithProfileData];
    }
}
