This is a guard that tracks down UIKit access on threads other than main. This snippet is taken from the commercial iOS PDF framework http://pspdfkit.com, but relicensed under MIT. Works because a lot of calls internally call setNeedsDisplay or setNeedsLayout. Won't catch everything, but it's very lightweight and usually does the job.You might n…

/**
Provides the ability to verify key paths at compile time.
If "keyPath" does not exist, a compile-time error will be generated.
Example:
// Verifies "isFinished" exists on "operation".
NSString *key = SQKeyPath(operation, isFinished);
// Verifies "isFinished" exists on self.

Declare on your main init that all other init methods should call. It's a nice additional semantic warning. Works with Xcode 5.1 and above. Not tested with earlier variants, but should just be ignored. A reference to this macro shortly appeared in https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/releasenotes/ObjectiveC/ModernizationObjC/AdoptingModernObj…

Set symbol breakpoint on objc_msgSend then setup this debug command to log all methods called in iOS Simulator. If you want to do device debugging change esp+4 register to r0, esp+8 to r1 Found long ago somewhere on stackoverflow.
expr -- (void)printf("[%s, %s]\n",(char *) object_getClassName(*(long*)($esp+4)), (char *) *(long *)($esp+8) )

I’m building a complex new app entirely with programmatic Auto Layout. It only supports iOS 9 so that means `UIStackView` and `NSLayoutAnchor` exclusively. These two classes have been very handy thus far, in the spirit of composition over inheritance.
final class CenteringView: UIView {
// MARK: - Initialization
init(contentView: UIView) {
super.init(frame: .zero)
addSubview(contentView)
contentView.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false

Pixel aligns rectangles, taking the device's screen scale into account.
