Anyone have a simple way to silence the undocumented UIDevice setOrientation warning?
I found this piece of code that silences the undocumented UIPickerView setSoundsEnabled warning.

A:
just declare the method in a category in the .h or .m file of wherever you use it:
@interface UIDevice (MyPrivateNameThatAppleWouldNeverUseGoesHere)
- (void) setOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)orientation;
@end

… and hope that Apple doesn't use the "(private)" category on UIDevice. I'd probably call it "(MyUndocumentedMethods)" or something.

Cool -- works great! What's the category feature originally designed for?

It is meant for extending the functionality of a class. BJ Homer is right… you should not use (private). I will change in the code

To do private method declarations, you can say `@interface UIDevice ()`.

Why not just subscribe to the orientation notifications? They are supported and work at the same time.
[[UIDevice currentDevice] beginGeneratingDeviceOrientationNotifications];

Heh, I need to change the orientation, not listen to it. The problem stems from having one orientable view in the middle of a chain of navigation. When I leave the rotated view for the view that can only take the portrait orientation I have to force the change because unless there is an orientation change the upcoming view that only can be in portrait mode will be rotated.

Maybe you should try to add your controller to the window view directly. It's a bit boring but it works well ! http://www.geckogeek.fr/iphone-forcer-le-mode-landscape-ou-portrait-en-cours-dexecution.html :-)
