For the constant UIKeyboardFrameEndUserInfoKey, in the Apple docs it says:
These coordinates do not take into account any rotation facto
I tried the accepted answer and found that it does not actually provide the CGRect of the keyboard within the view. I found that I have to convert the CGRect from the UIScreen object to the UIWindow object, and from the UIWindow object to the UIView object:
NSValue * keyboardEndFrame;
CGRect screenRect;
CGRect windowRect;
CGRect viewRect;
// determine's keyboard height
screenRect = [[[notification userInfo] objectForKey:UIKeyboardFrameEndUserInfoKey] CGRectValue];
windowRect = [self.view.window convertRect:screenRect fromWindow:nil];
viewRect = [self.view convertRect:windowRect fromView:nil];
I use the above to resize the root view to not be hidden by the keyboard:
NSTimeInterval duration;
CGRect frame;
// determine length of animation
duration = [[[notification userInfo] objectForKey:UIKeyboardAnimationDurationUserInfoKey] doubleValue];
// resize the view
frame = self.view.frame;
frame.size.height -= viewRect.size.height;
// animate view resize with the keyboard movement
[UIView beginAnimations:nil context:NULL];
[UIView setAnimationBeginsFromCurrentState:YES];
[UIView setAnimationDuration:duration];
self.view.frame = frame;
[UIView commitAnimations];
