How to reload iCarousel with animation?

Question

I tried to find a way of reloading the iCarousel with animations. Something like:

[self.carousel reloadDataAnimated:YES] // ObjC
self.carousel!.reloadData(animated: true) // Swift

I looked into the header and it looks like the control does not support this. Does anyone know how can I achieve a carousel reload with animation?

I found a way of doing this using transitionWithView method. Works like a charm. Carousel's content is reloaded with a nice cross dissolve animation. Here is the code:

Swift

UIView.transitionWithView(self.carousel!,
                          duration: 0.35,
                          options: .TransitionCrossDissolve,
                          animations: { () -> Void in

                              self.carousel!.reloadData()
                          },
                          completion:nil)

ObjC

[UIView transitionWithView:self.carousel
                  duration:0.35f
                   options:UIViewAnimationOptionTransitionCrossDissolve
                animations:^(void)
 {
      [self.carousel reloadData];
 }
                completion:nil];
