tableView.register(nib) loses auto layout constraints

in my viewDidLoad I register my nib:

tableView.register(UINib(nibName: "MyCell", bundle: nil), forCellReuseIdentifier: "MyCell")

which I fetch in my cellForRowAtIndexPath:

guard let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "MyCell") as? MyCell else {
    return UITableViewCell()
}
// I do get here, but no constraints exist

In my MyCell.xib which is a UITableViewCell, I layout my cell content with auto layout; but when running the app, all the cells subviews stick in the upper left, no constraints exist.

How can I achieve that the auto layout of MyCell.xib 'survives'?

What are all your constraints? – Satheesh Apr 25 '17 at 07:48
constraints regarding the centerY of the contentView, leading constraints. – swalkner Apr 25 '17 at 08:20

What is the value of `cell.translateAutoResizingMaskIntoconstraints` ?? – NeverHopeless Apr 25 '17 at 08:32
try this solution you need to get cell as same like as : http://stackoverflow.com/a/1939305/3901620 – KKRocks Apr 25 '17 at 08:41
Would you show your cell's layout? – Jitendra Solanki Apr 25 '17 at 08:53
@NeverHopeless it's `true`, same for `cell.contentView` - but it's not enough to set it to `false` in `cellForRowAtIndexPath:`... – swalkner Apr 25 '17 at 12:29
@swalkner, did you get any warning in debugger related to Unsatisfiable Constraints ? – NeverHopeless Apr 26 '17 at 07:30
@NeverHopeless no; and when I log the constraints of `cell` or `cell.contentView` they are empty: `[]` – swalkner Apr 26 '17 at 07:30
In which event do you log them ? Perhaps adding more code related to setting up tableview and cell could be helpful for us to troubleshoot the problem. – NeverHopeless Apr 26 '17 at 07:39
`cellForRowAtIndexPath` – swalkner Apr 26 '17 at 07:40
XCode version ? – NeverHopeless Apr 26 '17 at 07:41
`Version 8.3.2 (8E2002)` – swalkner Apr 26 '17 at 07:41
In XCode 8.2 it seems to work fine, so i think problem is specifically related to v8.3. Can you please give this a try: https://github.com/smileyborg/TableViewCellWithAutoLayoutiOS8/issues/10 the `extension reloadDataWithAutoSizingCellWorkAround` – NeverHopeless Apr 26 '17 at 07:47
didn't help, unfortunately. Called that method in both, `viewDidLoad` and `viewWillAppear` – swalkner Apr 26 '17 at 07:57
