Question

How can I draw a rectangle with a border in one line?

There are separate methods like:

CGContextStrokeRect(context, someRectangle);

and

CGContextFillRect(context, someRectangle);

but is there something that does both in one?

Answer 1

- (void)drawRect:(CGRect)rect {
    CGContextRef context = UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext();
    CGPathRef path = CGPathCreateWithRect(rect, NULL);
    [[UIColor redColor] setFill];
    [[UIColor greenColor] setStroke];
    CGContextAddPath(context, path);
    CGContextDrawPath(context, kCGPathFillStroke);
    CGPathRelease(path);
}

Although, I can’t say it’s any less verbose than stroke & fill in separate calls…
