            [imageLayer setMasksToBounds:YES];

Answer 1

If you want to draw an imageview in an oval shape, follow below steps:

1. Create a UIBezierPath using bezierPathWithOvalInRect

   UIBezierPath *path = [UIBezierPath bezierPathWithOvalInRect:YOUR_RECT];
   

2. Create a mask layer by using CAShapeLayer

   CAShapeLayer *maskLayer = [CAShapeLayer layer];
   

3. Now set the bezier path as mask layer's path

   maskLayer.path = path.CGPath;
   

4. Then we are going mask our view with our own mask layer.

   YourImageview.layer.mask = maskLayer;
   

That's all. Try it.

Yes, you can done it by draw BezierPath but even we can't get exact round-rect image... so i'll give you other trick... you use 2 imageview one for main-imageview in which you pass your image.. second(overhead imageviw) for round or circle shape image with orange color border which is transparent in middle/center.

when you use overheadimageview over main imageview then you can find exact round or circle shape image

You need to have a corner Radius half of what your image size is, to draw the cricular.
But to draw oval shape you need smaller radius.

CGFloat imgSize                      = 55;
UIImageView *imgViewProfile          = [[UIImageView alloc] init];
imgViewProfile.frame                 = CGRectMake(5, 5, imgSize, imgSize);
imgViewProfile.layer.cornerRadius    = imgSize / 2;
imgViewProfile.clipsToBounds         = YES;
imgViewProfile.contentMode           = UIViewContentModeScaleAspectFill;
[view addSubview:imgViewProfile];
