要在Swift3中做到这一点，以下是代码:

 let labelSizeWithFixedWith = CGSize(width: 300, height: CGFloat.greatestFiniteMagnitude)
            let exactLabelsize = self.label.sizeThatFits(labelSizeWithFixedWith)
            self.label.frame = CGRect(origin: CGPoint(x: 20, y: 20), size: exactLabelsize)

我计算UILabel动态高度的方法。

    let width = ... //< width of this label 
    let text = ... //< display content

    label.numberOfLines = 0
    label.lineBreakMode = .byWordWrapping
    label.preferredMaxLayoutWidth = width

    // Font of this label.
    //label.font = UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 17.0)
    // Compute intrinsicContentSize based on font, and preferredMaxLayoutWidth
    label.invalidateIntrinsicContentSize() 
    // Destination height
    let height = label.intrinsicContentSize.height

包装功能:

func computeHeight(text: String, width: CGFloat) -> CGFloat {
    // A dummy label in order to compute dynamic height.
    let label = UILabel()

    label.numberOfLines = 0
    label.lineBreakMode = .byWordWrapping
    label.font = UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 17.0)

    label.preferredMaxLayoutWidth = width
    label.text = text
    label.invalidateIntrinsicContentSize()

    let height = label.intrinsicContentSize.height
    return height
}

我的代码:

UILabel *label      = [[UILabel alloc] init];
label.numberOfLines = 0;
label.lineBreakMode = NSLineBreakByWordWrapping;
label.text          = text;
label.textAlignment = NSTextAlignmentCenter;
label.font          = [UIFont fontWithName:_bodyTextFontFamily size:_bodyFontSize];

CGSize size = [label sizeThatFits:CGSizeMake(width, MAXFLOAT)];


float height        = size.height;
label.frame         = CGRectMake(x, y, width, height);

谢谢大家的帮助，这是我尝试的代码，这是为我工作

   UILabel *instructions = [[UILabel alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(10, 225, 300, 180)];
   NSString *text = @"First take clear picture and then try to zoom in to fit the ";
   instructions.text = text;
   instructions.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentCenter;
   instructions.lineBreakMode = NSLineBreakByWordWrapping;
   [instructions setTextColor:[UIColor grayColor]];

   CGSize expectedLabelSize = [text sizeWithFont:instructions.font 
                                constrainedToSize:instructions.frame.size
                                    lineBreakMode:UILineBreakModeWordWrap];

    CGRect newFrame = instructions.frame;
    newFrame.size.height = expectedLabelSize.height;
    instructions.frame = newFrame;
    instructions.numberOfLines = 0;
    [instructions sizeToFit];
    [self addSubview:instructions];

-(UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
    cellIdentifier = @"myCell";
    cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:cellIdentifier];
    cell.myUILabel.lineBreakMode = UILineBreakModeWordWrap;        
    cell.myUILabel.numberOfLines = 0;
    cell.myUILabel.text = @"Some very very very very long text....."
    [cell.myUILabel.criterionDescriptionLabel sizeToFit];    
}

- (CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
    UITableViewCell *cell = [self tableView:tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:indexPath];
    CGFloat rowHeight = cell.myUILabel.frame.size.height + 10;

    return rowHeight;    
}
