Is [UIScreen mainScreen].bounds.size becoming orientation-dependent in iOS8?

Question

I ran the following code in both iOS 7 and iOS 8:

UIInterfaceOrientation orientation = [[UIApplication sharedApplication] statusBarOrientation];
BOOL landsca         


        

Answer 1

Just adding the swift version of an excellent cbartel function answered above.

func screenSize() -> CGSize {
    let screenSize = UIScreen.mainScreen().bounds.size
    if (NSFoundationVersionNumber <= NSFoundationVersionNumber_iOS_7_1) && UIInterfaceOrientationIsLandscape(UIApplication.sharedApplication().statusBarOrientation) {
        return CGSizeMake(screenSize.height, screenSize.width)
    }
    return screenSize
}
