How to force view controller orientation in iOS 8?

Question

Before iOS 8, we used below code in conjunction with supportedInterfaceOrientations and shouldAutoRotate delegate methods to force app orie

Answer 1

I have the same problem and waste so many time for it. So now I have my solution. My app setting is just support portrait only.However, some screens into my app need have landscape only.I fix it by have a variable isShouldRotate at AppDelegate. And the function at AppDelegate:

func application(application: UIApplication, supportedInterfaceOrientationsForWindow window: UIWindow?) -> Int {
    if isShouldRotate == true {
        return Int(UIInterfaceOrientationMask.Landscape.rawValue)
    }
    return Int(UIInterfaceOrientationMask.Portrait.rawValue)
}

And finally when a ViewControllerA need landscape state. Just do that: before push/present to ViewControllerA assign isShouldRotate to true. Don't forget when pop/dismiss that controller assign isShouldRotate to false at viewWillDisappear.
