Compiler Warning... Implicit conversion from enumeration type 'UIInterfaceOrientation' to different enumeration type 'UIDeviceOrientation'?

Question

In Xcode I get a warning in the following line for FBConnect:

_orientation = [UIApplication sharedApplication].statusBarOrientation;

This is the full warning:

Implicit conversion from enumeration type 'UIInterfaceOrientation' to different enumeration type 'UIDeviceOrientation'

Any ideas how I can fix this?

Thanks!

Solution 1

Try changing

_orientation = [UIApplication sharedApplication].statusBarOrientation;

to

 _orientation = (UIDeviceOrientation)[UIApplication sharedApplication].statusBarOrientation;

Solution 2

How about this?

UIDeviceOrientation _orientation = [[UIDevice currentDevice] orientation];

statusBarOrientation return UIInterfaceOrientation instead of UIDeviceOrientation. The casting seems incorrect.
