Which is the best way to change the color/view of disclosure indicator accessory view in a table view cell in iOS?

Question

I need to change the color of the disclosureIndicatorView accessory in a UITableViewCell. I think there are two ways to get this done, but I\'m not

As a contribution to the solution of @benzado I swiftified his code as followed:

override func drawRect(rect: CGRect) {

  super.drawRect(rect)

  let context = UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext();

  let right_margin : CGFloat = 15.0
  let length : CGFloat = 4.5;

  // (x,y) is the tip of the arrow
  let x = CGRectGetMaxX(self.bounds) - right_margin;
  let y = CGRectGetMidY(self.bounds);

  CGContextMoveToPoint(context, x - length, y - length);
  CGContextAddLineToPoint(context, x, y);
  CGContextAddLineToPoint(context, x - length, y + length);
  CGContextSetLineCap(context, .Round);
  CGContextSetLineJoin(context, .Miter);
  CGContextSetLineWidth(context, 2.5);

  if (self.highlighted)
  {
    CGContextSetStrokeColorWithColor(context, UIColor.appColorSelected().CGColor);
  }
  else
  {
    CGContextSetStrokeColorWithColor(context, UIColor.appColor().CGColor);
  }

  CGContextStrokePath(context);
}

With a change of the app color a call to setNeedsDisplay() on the UITableCellView will update the color. I like to avoid the use of UIImage objects in cell views.
