In my project I have enabled AutoLayout in order to make the app scale properly in both iPhone 4 and iPhone 5. Everything worked fine with doing so, but I found a new problem which I am not sure how to handle.

In my project I have a normal method which checks if a boolean is yes or no, if yes the interface should add a button into the interface and keep my tableView in its current state. But if the method returns no, the button should disappear and make the tableView’s height higher! Everything with the button works fine but for some reason after start using AutoLayout my code for increasing the tableView’s height stopped working (which worked before).

Now what can I do to make my tableView’s height increase in height even if I am using AutoLayout? Here is my code:

- (void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated
{
NSString *bookName = [self getCurrentBookName];

if([self isBlank:bookName])
{
    [self.currentBookLabel setText:NSLocalizedString(@"LabelNoBookChosen", nil)];
}
else
{
    [self.currentBookLabel setText:[self getCurrentBookName]];
}

[super viewWillAppear:animated];

  if([self isAppLicensed] != YES)   <------------------THIS IS WHERE I CHECK THE BOOLEAN METHOD!
{
    [actionAppStore setHidden:TRUE];

    CGRect framez =  [tableView frame]; <------------------ THIS CODE IS NOT WORKING ANY LONGER!
    [tableView setFrame:CGRectMake(framez.origin.x, framez.origin.y, framez.size.width, framez.size.height+77)];
}    
else
{
    [actionAppStore setHidden:FALSE];
}
}
