This is very simple to do. Try:

UIView * view = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(origin_x, origin_y, width, height)]; 
UIImageView * imageView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"a.png"]];
[view addSubview:imageView];
[imageView release];

You can also play with the UIImageView's frame property to move it around in your UIView. Hope that Helps!

Swift version :

let view = UIView(frame: CGRectMake(0, 0, 640, 200))
view.backgroundColor = UIColor(patternImage: UIImage(named: "myImage")!)

Swift 3:

let view = UIView(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 640, height: 200))
view.backgroundColor = UIColor(patternImage: UIImage(named: "myImage")!)

Answer 5

you can try this :

UIView *aView=[[UIView alloc]init];

UIColor *background = [[UIColor alloc] initWithPatternImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"anImage.png"]];
aView.backgroundColor = background;
[background release];

Answer 6

Here I am assigning the CGImage to the contents property of layer which accepts CGImage or NSImage. You can only assign CGImage or NSImage to contents property.

layerView.layer.contents = UIImage(named: "Mario.png")?.cgImage
