Can I perform animations on a UIControl subclass with iPhone SDK 3.x?

Question

I have a custom UIControl that passes UIControlEventValueChanged events back to my ViewController. I also need to animate it (basic resizing) in certain circumstances, but UIControl seems to have no implementation of beginAnimations or commitAnimations. Do I have to encase it in a UIView? Any better solution? Thanks.

A UIControl is a UIView so you can just use the standard UIView calls.

[UIView beginAnimations:nil context:nil];
[yourControl setFrame:theNewFrame];
[UIView commitAnimations];
