Method [UIDevice setOrientation:] - is it still denied?

Question

I\'ve heard that using of [UIDevice setOrientation:] can be the reason to app rejection in Appstore. Is there any proofed info about it?

Answer 1

The current (iOS 5) definition is:

@property (nonatomic, readonly) UIDeviceOrientation orientation

So even if there is a setter (setOrientation: or .orientation =) it would be private API as the official documentation says it doesn't exist. And using private API will get you rejected.
