lock orientation programmatically in iOS 9

Question

As title, I'm wondering if it's possible to lock orientation programmatically in iOS 9 now? This is critical to my app but I can't find a way to do it. Thanks.

Use supportedInterfaceOrientations and preferredInterfaceOrientationForPresentation used to manage orientation for example

-(UIInterfaceOrientationMask)supportedInterfaceOrientations{
    return UIInterfaceOrientationMaskPortrait | UIInterfaceOrientationMaskPortraitUpsideDown;
}

- (UIInterfaceOrientation)preferredInterfaceOrientationForPresentation{
    return UIInterfaceOrientationPortrait;
}

Helped me to find out what the problem was. The navigation controller was athorizing all masks – The Windwaker Sep 05 '16 at 09:47
If the viewcontroller is under a navigationController, you need to add a class for the navigationController and put the code above into the navigationController's class. – flame3 Feb 25 '17 at 12:10
