Um, before we go API-hog-wild here, we need to rule out the possibility that the OP is just Doing It Wrong™. Because I’m 99.9999% certain that the OP is just Doing It Wrong™:

I guess I am looking for a way from within the event loop to be able to check whether a proposed new frame rectangle for the view obeys the view’s size constraints.
So, he’s resizing the view using setFrame**, which is to say he’s not really using Auto Layout at all. What he apparently wants is *manual* resizing and repositioning with automatic application of *manual* size limits. This is functionality that doesn’t exist in Cocoa, and it’s certainly not Auto Layout.
** Probably. There’s still about 0.0001% of doubt about it.
