以下是分类版本:

UILabel + AutoSize.h #进口

@interface UILabel (AutoSize)

- (void) autosizeForWidth: (int) width;

@end

UILabel + AutoSize。m

#import "UILabel+AutoSize.h"

@implementation UILabel (AutoSize)

- (void) autosizeForWidth: (int) width {
    self.lineBreakMode = UILineBreakModeWordWrap;
    self.numberOfLines = 0;
    CGSize maximumLabelSize = CGSizeMake(width, FLT_MAX);
    CGSize expectedLabelSize = [self.text sizeWithFont:self.font constrainedToSize:maximumLabelSize lineBreakMode:self.lineBreakMode];
    CGRect newFrame = self.frame;
    newFrame.size.height = expectedLabelSize.height;
    self.frame = newFrame;
}

@end

这种方法可以得到完美的高度

-(float) getHeightForText:(NSString*) text withFont:(UIFont*) font andWidth:(float) width{
CGSize constraint = CGSizeMake(width , 20000.0f);
CGSize title_size;
float totalHeight;


title_size = [text boundingRectWithSize:constraint
                                options:NSStringDrawingUsesLineFragmentOrigin
                             attributes:@{ NSFontAttributeName : font }
                                context:nil].size;

totalHeight = ceil(title_size.height);

CGFloat height = MAX(totalHeight, 40.0f);
return height;
}

myLabel.text = "your very long text"
myLabel.numberOfLines = 0
myLabel.lineBreakMode = NSLineBreakMode.ByWordWrapping

你可以通过以下方式实现TableViewController的(UITableViewCell *)tableView:cellForRowAtIndexPath方法(例如):

#define CELL_LABEL_TAG 1

- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView  cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
    NSString *text = @"my long text";

    static NSString *MyIdentifier = @"MyIdentifier";
    UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:MyIdentifier];
    if (cell == nil) {
        cell = [[[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectZero  reuseIdentifier:identifier] autorelease];
    }

    CGFloat width = [UIScreen mainScreen].bounds.size.width - 50;
    CGFloat height = [self textHeight:text] + 10;
    CGRect frame = CGRectMake(10.0f, 10.0f, width, height);

    UILabel *cellLabel = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:frame];
    cellLabel.tag = CELL_LABEL_TAG;
    cellLabel.textColor = [UIColor blackColor];
    cellLabel.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
    cellLabel.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentLeft;
    cellLabel.font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:12.0f];
    [cell.contentView addSubview:cellLabel];
    [cellLabel release];

    return cell;
}

UILabel *label = (UILabel *)[cell viewWithTag:CELL_LABEL_TAG];
label.text = text;
label.numberOfLines = 0;
[label sizeToFit];
return cell;

也可以使用NSString的sizeWithFont:constrainedToSize:lineBreakMode:方法来计算文本的高度。

根据iOS7更新

// If description are available for protocol
protocolDescriptionLabel.text = [dataDictionary objectForKey:@"description"];
[protocolDescriptionLabel sizeToFit];
[protocolDescriptionLabel setLineBreakMode:NSLineBreakByWordWrapping];

CGSize expectedLabelSize = [protocolDescriptionLabel
               textRectForBounds:protocolDescriptionLabel.frame
               limitedToNumberOfLines:protocolDescriptionLabel.numberOfLines].size;
NSLog(@"expectedLabelSize %f", expectedLabelSize.height);

//adjust the label the the new height.
CGRect newFrame = protocolDescriptionLabel.frame;
newFrame.size.height = expectedLabelSize.height;
protocolDescriptionLabel.frame = newFrame;

sizeWithFont constrainedToSize:lineBreakMode:是使用的方法。如何使用它的例子如下:

//Calculate the expected size based on the font and linebreak mode of your label
// FLT_MAX here simply means no constraint in height
CGSize maximumLabelSize = CGSizeMake(296, FLT_MAX);

CGSize expectedLabelSize = [yourString sizeWithFont:yourLabel.font constrainedToSize:maximumLabelSize lineBreakMode:yourLabel.lineBreakMode];   

//adjust the label the the new height.
CGRect newFrame = yourLabel.frame;
newFrame.size.height = expectedLabelSize.height;
yourLabel.frame = newFrame;
