Can't set UIViewContentMode enum

[daniel-hall]

Here's a weird but frustrating one:

I'm trying to set a UIImageView subclass's contentMode property to aspect fit (UIViewContentModeScaleAspectFit) using a stylesheet.

All of the below fail and result in the enum value of UIViewContentModeScaleToFill (0) being applied instead:

content-mode: scale-aspect-fit content-mode: scaleAspectFit content-mode: scaleaspectfit content-mode: UIViewContentModeScaleAspectFit content-mode: 1

However, enum constants with less camel-cased words work just fine, e.g.:

content-mode: top-left

So I'm guessing this is something that happens when more than two camel-cased words are appended to the enum name when naming the constant? For example:

typedef NS_ENUM(NSInteger, MyEnumType) { MyEnumTypeOne, // works MyEnumTypeOneTwo, // works MyEnumTypeOneTwoThree, // will not work? };

Or maybe it's just based on the total length of the constant name? Any suggestions / workarounds since even using the integer value doesn't seem to work?

Sorry this is mainly due to lack of documentation!

Enums cannot be automatically picked up by reflection in objc so anything which is an enum value uses a custom mapping see

https://github.com/cloudkite/Classy/blob/master/Classy/Parser/CASStyler.m#L450

In this case looks like I abbreviated a few of them, Sorry for the confusion!

So the magic word you are looking for is aspectFit

Ah yes - that was all I needed! Thanks for the tip :)

I'm really appreciating the flexibility of Classy so far. I wasn't able to get Pixate working as cleanly with some of the functionality I needed. So thumbs up and thanks for this great framework!
