问题:

I'm having some issues of figuring out when the auto-contraints setup on a XIB are applied in the view setup process.

For more explanation:

I've setup a XIB for a view
I set the "Simulated Metrics" Size to iPhone 3.5-Inch
I've added auto-constraints to the subviews inside this view
In the View Controller I perform certain operations dependent on the subview (IBOutlet) frames/bounds in the viewDidLoad method
In the View I perform certain operations dependent on the subview (IBOutlet) frames/bounds in the awakeFromNib method

In those 2 methods (ViewController::viewDidLoad and View::awakeFromNib) the IBOutlet views HAVE been loaded but the constraints have no yet been applied. The actual frame is still set to the iPhone 3.5" size (width 320) when using a larger simulator (such as the iPhone 6 simulator).

When are these auto-constraints applied and when should any necessary operations that would need the ACTUAL frame/bounds of the subviews take place?

I'm using XCode 6.3, Swift (1.2)

The constraints are applied in the layoutSubviews method. So if you want to do something after they are applied in a UIView subclass, override the method:

   override func layoutSubviews() {     super.layoutSubviews()     //the frames have now their final values, after applying constraints   }

In a UIViewController subclass, use viewDidLayoutSubviews for the same purpose:

  override func viewDidLayoutSubviews() {     super.viewDidLayoutSubviews()     //the frames have now their final values, after applying constraints   }

Please note that you shouldn't set frame / bounds for a view if you added auto layout constraints to this view.

Note for Xcode 8: If you use auto layout, you may have a problem with new feature: view as [any device]. When you test your app on another device(simulator) and have inferred screen, screen bounds for this device gonna be applied in viewWillLayoutSubviews.

回答3:

you can use method

override func layoutSubviews() { super.layoutSubviews() //the frames have now their final values, after applying constraints

}

But this method will be called multiple times in a view's life cycle, such as orientation change or moving in and out views, so you need to handle this.
