Problem in -[CALayer setBorderColor:]

Question

I want to have border around my textview; for that, I did the following: ``` textView.layer.borderWidth = 5.0f; textView.layer.borderColor = [UIColor grayColor]; ``` I am getting the following warning: ``` warning: passing argument 1 of 'setBorderColor:' from incompatible pointer type ``` Update1 : my border is not visible

Accepted Answer

Your problem is that `-[CALayer setBorderColor:]` takes an object of type `CGColorRef`. What you need to do is convert your color object to conform:

```
textView.layer.borderColor = [UIColor grayColor].CGColor;
```

I hope that helped!
