ios7 - force landscape ios 7

Question

I've tried to following methods to force landscape on one my views:

- (NSUInteger)supportedInterfaceOrientations {
    return UIInterfaceOrientationMaskLandscape;
}

- (UIInterfaceOrientation)preferredInterfaceOrientationForPresentation {
    return UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeLeft;
}

- (BOOL)shouldAutorotate{
    return YES;
}

Neither did work. Note that I'm testing on the simulator and on an iPad.

Thanks

Here is how I forced one of my views to be Landscape using NavigationViewController:

1. Implemented this answer: https://stackoverflow.com/a/12662433/2394787

2. Imported message in the View controller: objc/message.h

3. Added this line of code in the viewDidLoad method:

objc_msgSend([UIDevice currentDevice], @selector(setOrientation:), UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeLeft);

Hope it helps someone.
