How To Dynamically change the contentSize of UIPopoverController?

Question

I have a UIViewController that contains a UITableView. This UIViewController is being displayed in a UIPopoverController.

Answer 1

A UIViewController class has the property

self.contentSizeForViewInPopover

which will resize the pop over w/out needing to adding a reference to it.

And to expand on a solution, i used the method rectForSection: to get the size of the section (mine only has 1 section, so easy enough to get) and then added the height of the navigation bar (it seems to be 20). so i'm able to create the popover the size of the finished table view:

CGRect sectionRect = [view.tableView rectForSection:0];

if (sectionRect.size.height + 20 < POPOVER_SIZE.height)
    view.contentSizeForViewInPopover = CGSizeMake(POPOVER_SIZE.width, sectionRect.size.height + 20);
else
    view.contentSizeForViewInPopover = POPOVER_SIZE;

might prove more difficult with multiple sections, i didn't try it. should just be able to sum up the section heights, but there might be some spacing issues that i don't know about.
