I need to set 开发者_开发知识库some background image for my view. How can I do this?

The simpliest way is to add an imageView to your view with appropriate background image. Just make sure that it is the lowest by z-order subview by adding it first or by calling [view sendSubviewToBack:backGroundView];

As an alternative you can set your image as a contents for your view's layer:

#import <QuartzCore/QuartzCore.h>

...    
view.layer.contents = yourImage.CGImage;
