I posted about this in the CocoaTouch developer forum, with no response. I am bringing my problem here in the forlorn, last hope that someone who reads this newsgroup but not that forum knows something that will assist me.
I am developing an iPad app under Xcode/IB/iPhone-simulator 3.2.2. (I have had enough bugs with later versions of the software to have had to deinstall them.) This version is available to all developers, so I presume I can discuss it here. My app has one view controller, and in it, the method "shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation" exists, is being compiled, (I temporarily put a syntax error in it to make sure), and returns an unqualified "YES". However, that method is not being called -- I added an NSLog statement in it, and see no output. The app does come up in the simulator and starts to run, in portrait mode with the button at the bottom. However, when I rotate the simulator, the app rotates with it as the simulated iPad turns, exactly as you would expect of an app locked in portrait mode with the button at the bottom. The rotating part includes not just my own view, but also the top bar with time, battery charge, and WiFi state in it. I am not sure what questions to ask, but (1) is there something I am missing in the Xcode project settings that would cause the OS to think my app is restricted to that orientation, and (2) what exactly is it that calls this method in the first place, and what object is it that receives the method. (I can probably chase down a problem with delegates or the responder chain if I know where to start.) There is a lot of stuff on the web and in archives dealing with problems with this method, but nothing that seems relevant to my particular problem.
