iOS Auto Rotate Tab Bar

[amalshah71]

Hello,
All the posts i could find regarding this is related to TabBar controller based App.

All posts talk about overriding shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:

Though in the following case it won't apply

Scenario :

i have 2 components , one a UIScrollView and 2nd a UITabBar

After initing these 2 components i add it to UIWindow

I set a notification to listen for Orientation changes...

Say for eg: a LandscapeRight orientation happens...

i set bounds for UIScrollView component to set it to landscapemode...

But how about UITabBar component...

How do i make it to display in landscape mode

Thanks

For my, as yet unreleased update, to DLR Times I created a subclass of UITabViewController called RotatingTabViewController in which I override shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation: to return YES for all orientations and nothing else. I then changed my tab view controller to an instance of my new subclass and it all worked perfectly.

to use shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation: i have to use a viewcontroller...for getting rotation is using a viewcontroller the only way out

is there any other way for tab bar component to listen for orientation changes...
