get warning for autolayout, NSAutoLayout,objective C [duplicate]

Question

My goal : to center an indicator ( vertically and horizontally ) to the button in a view

What I am doing is :

[self.logInButton addConstraint:[NSLayoutConstraint constraintWithItem:spinner1
                                                             attribute:NSLayoutAttributeCenterY
                                                             relatedBy:NSLayoutRelationEqual
                                                                toItem:self.logInButton
                                                             attribute:NSLayoutAttributeCenterY
                                                            multiplier:1.0
                                                              constant:0]];
[self.logInButton addConstraint:[NSLayoutConstraint constraintWithItem:spinner1
                                                             attribute:NSLayoutAttributeCenterX
                                                             relatedBy:NSLayoutRelationEqual
                                                                toItem:self.logInButton
                                                             attribute:NSLayoutAttributeCenterX
                                                            multiplier:1.0
                                                              constant:0]];
self.logInButton addSubView:spinner

However, I am getting a warning below

The view hierarchy is not prepared for the constraint: <NSLayoutConstraint:0x17e19390 UIActivityIndicatorView:0x17d035d0.centerY == UIButton:0x17df4430.centerY>
    When added to a view, the constraint's items must be descendants of that view (or the view itself). This will crash if the constraint needs to be resolved before the view hierarchy is assembled. Break on -[UIView _viewHierarchyUnpreparedForConstraint:] to debug.

Does anyone know what I am doing wrong here ? Please help

All comments are welcomed here. Thanks

You need to add the views before adding constraints.

put this first and then add constraints

self.logInButton addSubView:spinner
