Show custom separator UIView in table cell

Question

hello I want to show a custom separator line with the same color and height of like default table separator. I am using Dynamic Prototype Table. I have put UIView from interface builder to my cell and set its height to 1px and setup an outlet

@IBOutlet weak var separatorLineUIView: UIView!

then I don't know what should I write here in cellForRowAtIndexPath function

func tableView(tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {

       let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier("cell", forIndexPath: indexPath) as! ProductRequestTableViewCell
           cell.separatorLineUIView

and also want to set its color and height to default table separator line so that it shows same for all the devices

The easiest way is to set its height as 0.5, not 1 in interface builder.

Because views' size is measured in points, and currently we have 2 pixels per point for retina screens and 3 pixels (which is downsampled) per point for retina HD screens.

And if you want to do it better, you can set separator's height to be equal to 1.0 / UIScreen.mainScreen().scale
