对于那些迁移到iOS 8的人，这里有一个Swift的类扩展:

extension UILabel {

    func autoresize() {
        if let textNSString: NSString = self.text {
            let rect = textNSString.boundingRectWithSize(CGSizeMake(self.frame.size.width, CGFloat.max),
                options: NSStringDrawingOptions.UsesLineFragmentOrigin,
                attributes: [NSFontAttributeName: self.font],
                context: nil)
            self.frame = CGRectMake(self.frame.origin.x, self.frame.origin.y, self.frame.size.width, rect.height)
        }
    }

}

当自动布局被启用时，调整大小不工作:)

对我来说，最简单和更好的方法是将高度约束应用于标签，并将优先级设置为低，即storyboard中的(250)。

所以你不需要担心通过编程计算高度和宽度，多亏了storyboard。

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

请在故事板中为可用性设置约束，包括左上右下

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。

NSString *str = @"Please enter your text......";
CGSize lblSize = [str sizeWithFont:[UIFont systemFontOfSize:15] constrainedToSize: CGSizeMake(200.0f, 600.0f) lineBreakMode: NSLineBreakByWordWrapping];

UILabel *label = [[UILabel alloc]init];
label.frame = CGRectMake(60, 20, 200, lblSize.height);
label.numberOfLines = 0;
label.lineBreakMode = NSLineBreakByWordWrapping;
label.font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:15];
label.text = str;
label.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
[label sizeToFit];
[self.view addSubview:label];
