how do I set the orientation of a UIWindow with UINavigation - ios

Question

I'm adding the following code to my application in order to navigate back and forth from a quicklook view.
window = [[UIWindow alloc] initWithFrame:[[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds]];
[self rotateView];
nav = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:self];
[window addSubview:[nav view]];
[window makeKeyAndVisible];
[[self navigationController] setNavigationBarHidden:YES];
This code is run in my main ViewController viewDidLoad function. My application runs in landscape but this window and navigation bar loads in portrait mode. My application doesn't have a statusBar so some code I've found doesn't work. I get an error if I try to check and listen for status bar orientation notifications.
I'm looking for a way to allow this navigation view to set it's orientation based on the apps current orientation.

If I understand your question Your above code should be placed in didFinishLaunchingWithOptions not in viewDidLoad in the AppDelegate and the initialization of MainViewController should be there also.
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions
{
self.window = [[[UIWindow alloc] initWithFrame:[[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds]] autorelease];
// Override point for customization after application launch.
self.mainViewController = //init your MainViewController;
navigationController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:(UIViewController*)viewController];
[window addSubview:navigationController.view];
[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
return YES;
}
