I thought I could easily display a toolbar in UIKit, but I was wrong, or at least I can't do so without getting "Unable to simultaneously satisfy constraints." console messages.
Here is my code:
import UIKit
class ViewController: UIViewController {
let toolbar = UIToolbar()
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
view.backgroundColor = .systemBackground
toolbar.items = [
UIBarButtonItem(title: "Title", style: .plain, target: nil, action: nil),
UIBarButtonItem(barButtonSystemItem: .flexibleSpace, target: nil, action: nil)
]
view.addSubview(toolbar)
toolbar.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
NSLayoutConstraint.activate([
toolbar.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.safeAreaLayoutGuide.bottomAnchor),
toolbar.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.safeAreaLayoutGuide.leadingAnchor),
toolbar.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.safeAreaLayoutGuide.trailingAnchor),
toolbar.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 44)
])
}
}
And here is the console log:
Unable to simultaneously satisfy constraints.
Probably at least one of the constraints in the following list is one you don't want.
Try this:
(1) look at each constraint and try to figure out which you don't expect;
(2) find the code that added the unwanted constraint or constraints and fix it.
(Note: If you're seeing NSAutoresizingMaskLayoutConstraints that you don't understand, refer to the documentation for the UIView property translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints)

Make a symbolic breakpoint at UIViewAlertForUnsatisfiableConstraints to catch this in the debugger.
The methods in the UIConstraintBasedLayoutDebugging category on UIView listed in <UIKitCore/UIView.h> may also be helpful.

I tried giving the toolbar a frame rather than constraints, and also to not give it an explicit height.
The only thing that works is to comment out UIBarButtonItem(title: "Title", style: .plain, target: nil, action: nil), which isn't really a solution.
What am I doing wrong?
