How to resize uilabel using content?

Question

I'm trying to resize the uilabel using content, I tried in autolayout ios with cgrectmake, but it's not working.

cell.msglabel=[[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(10, 100, myLabel.frame.size.width, myLabel.frame.size.height)];
cell.msglabel.lineBreakMode = NSLineBreakByWordWrapping;
[cell.msglabel setFrame:CGRectMake(10, 10, myLabel.frame.size.width, myLabel.frame.size.height)];
cell.msglabel.text=text;
[cell.msglabel updateConstraints];

UILabel is intrinsicContentSize view which you need not to set frame directly when you using auto layout.

Give edge constraints is enough, width/height constraint are not necessary. eg. left padding and top padding to other views.
