How do you center a UIImageView in UITableViewCell regardless of orientation?

Question

I'm trying to center a UIImageView width-wise in a UITableViewCell with the following code:

        // self.cover_image is a UIImage variable
        // cell is a UITableCellView

        UIImageView* backcover_imageview = [[[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:self.cover_image] autorelease];
        [backcover_imageview sizeToFit];

        //center image
        //float xPos = cell.contentView.frame.size.width - (self.cover_image.size.width/2);

        //TODO: need better solution
        //Eyeballing attempt:
        float xPos = self.cover_image.size.width - 25;
        CGRect bookcover_frame = backcover_imageview.frame;
        bookcover_frame.origin.x = xPos;
        backcover_imageview.frame = bookcover_frame;
        backcover_imageview.tag = 9000;
        backcover_imageview.autoresizingMask = UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleLeftMargin | UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleRightMargin;

        [cell.contentView addSubview:backcover_imageview];

I'm trying to center the UIImageView in a UITableCellView regardless of what orientation the iPad or iPhone device is in. Does anyone know the right way to do this?

Answer 1

I added two more autoresizing masks and got a good result using your code and PengOne's answer:

playImage.autoresizingMask = UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleLeftMargin | UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleRightMargin | UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleTopMargin | UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleBottomMargin;
[cell.contentView addSubview:playImage];
playImage.center = CGPointMake(cell.contentView.bounds.size.width/2,cell.contentView.bounds.size.height/2);

Answer 2

After you add backcover_imageView to the contentView of the cell, use this to center it:

imageView.center = CGPointMake(cell.contentView.bounds.size.width/2,cell.contentView.bounds.size.height/2);
