How could I add a shadow to a grouped UITableView (as seen in the official twitter app)?

Question

I have a standard grouped table view. I would like to add a shadow around it (i.e. around the edge of each tableview section) - if you are not sure what I mean, then see the off

You could always set a ShadowPath like this:

myView.layer.shadowOpacity = 0.8;
myView.layer.shadowRadius = 5.0;
myView.layer.shadowOffset = CGSizeZero;
myView.layer.shadowPath = [UIBezierPath bezierPathWithRect:myView.layer.bounds].CGPath;

Note that this requires QuartzCore or CoreGraphics, cannot remember well.

In this article there are a lot of shadow paths: http://nachbaur.com/blog/fun-shadow-effects-using-custom-calayer-shadowpaths
