Question

I have 5 view in storyboard. I want each view orientation will be different for example one view will be UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeRight another view will be UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeLeft or UIInterfaceOrientationPortrait or UIInterfaceOrientationPortraitUpsideDown. So how do set this orientation of view different.

I have used
[[UIDevice currentDevice] setOrientation:UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeRight];
but it show warning ‘UIDevice may not responds to setOrientation’. According to many of the stackoverflow writers I am using

-(BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)toInterfaceOrientation { 
    //return UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeLeft;
    return (toInterfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationPortraitUpsideDown); 
}

this above code but it is not working in my project. So what is the proper procedure for the orientation of the screen.
Thanks in advance.

Try this

[[UIApplication sharedApplication] setStatusBarOrientation:UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeLeft animated:YES];

You cann’t set UIDeviceOrientation because it’s physical parameter. If you keep device in your hand in portrait – how you programmatically set it to landscape?). UIDeviceOrientation does mean – Device Orientation, not Interface. This answer describe differences between orientations:
