    <p>I have an IOS application developed using Cocos2dx engine.</p> <p>The application is locked for a specific orientation (for example portrait) everything in the application seems to work fine and according to the right orientation except for the recent apps bar and notifications which are according to the device orientation.</p> <p>I want to be able to restrict it so it will have the same orientation as the application itself.</p> <p>I noticed that removing the landscape orientation inside the <code>info.plist</code> file does the job, but I want to be able to do it through code.</p> <p>In IOS 6 I found that all I had to was to override <code>referredInterfaceOrientationForPresentation</code> in my <code>RootViewController</code> and give the right orientation and this does the trick, but this method doesn't work for IOS 5 and below.</p> <p>What do I need to do to make this work on devices with IOS 5 and below?</p> <p>This is the code for the <code>RootViewController</code> (I didn't write it, I just added the last method and I'm trying to figure out how to fix the notifications and recent apps problem)</p> <pre><code>#include "cocos2d.h" #import "RootViewController.h" #import "AppDelegate.h" #import "misc/deviceOrientation.h" #import "services/ios/ConfigurationServiceImpl.h" @implementation RootViewController @synthesize progressView; /* // The designated initializer.

    1. CO1. If the status bar and recent apps bar comes in different orientation, then iOS really isn't aware that you want to lock orientation, and 2. there [are](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5838459/how-do-you-make-an-app-only-support-landscape) [numerous](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6353076/make-app-start-and-remain-in-landscape-mode?rq=1) [questions](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12630359/ios-6-how-do-i-restrict-some-views-to-portrait-and-allow-others-to-rotate) on this topic, care to elaborate on why your situation is different?

    3. COOk, so you have only one orientation listed in your apps Info.plist, you have implemented `shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation` and `shouldAutoRotate` and `supportedInterfaceOrientations` in *every* view controller? Whether or not it's working after doing all that, this info (what all have you tried) needs to be in the OP. Help us help you, and the more info we have, the better/faster we can help you.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
