iOS UIView animation (animationWithDuration:) with multiple options

I'm trying to implement a UIView animation block with animationWithDuration and multiple options. It is working fine except it only seems to use one of the options I specify instead of all three. Is there a limit to the number of options I can specify or a limit on certain combinations of options?

Below is my code. "starRotator" is a UIImageView in a UIView that I'm rotating. I tried wrapping the options in parentheses, but that didn't work either. It seems to only take the UIViewAnimationOptionRepeat option and ignore the other two. 

[UIView animateWithDuration:30.0 
                      delay:0.0 
                    options:UIViewAnimationCurveLinear | UIViewAnimationOptionRepeat | UIViewAnimationOptionBeginFromCurrentState
                 animations:^{
                     starRotator.superview.transform = CGAffineTransformMakeRotation(M_PI);
                 }
                 completion:^(BOOL finished){ }
 ];

That code is fine, except that you want to use UIViewAnimationOptionCurveLinear instead of UIViewAnimationCurveLinear. The latter is for use with UIView's old +setAnimationCurve: method.

Try changing that and see if you have any more luck.

Did you notice that two of the constants you're using as options contain the word “Option”, but one doesn't?

The correct option constant for a linear curve is UIViewAnimationOptionCurveLinear, but you used UIViewAnimationCurveLinear.
