I have a view with some fields (name, price, category) and a segmented control, plus this button to take picture.
If I try this on the simulator (no camera) it works properly: I can select the image from the camera roll, edit it and go back to the view, which will show all the fields with their contents .
But on my iphone, when I select the image after the editing and go back to the view, all the fields are empty exept for the UIImageView.
I also tried to save the content of the fields in variables and put them back in the "viewWillApper" method, but the app crashes.
Start to thinking that maybe there is something wrong methods below
EDIT
I found the solution here. I defined a new method to the UIImage class. (follow the link for more information).
Then I worked on the frame of the UIImageView to adapt itself to the new dimension, in landscape or portrait.
-(IBAction)takePhoto:(id)sender {
if ([UIImagePickerController isSourceTypeAvailable: UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera]) {
self.imgPicker.sourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera;
self.imgPicker.cameraCaptureMode = UIImagePickerControllerCameraCaptureModePhoto;
} else {
imgPicker.sourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeSavedPhotosAlbum;
}
[self presentModalViewController:self.imgPicker animated:YES];
}
-(void)imagePickerController:(UIImagePickerController *)picker didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo:(NSDictionary *)info {
[picker dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
NSDate *date = [NSDate date];
NSString *photoName = [dateFormatter stringFromDate:date];
NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUs erDomainMask, YES);
NSString *documentsDirectory = [paths objectAtIndex:0];
imagePath = [documentsDirectory stringByAppendingPathComponent:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@.png", photoName]];
UIImage *picture = [info objectForKey:UIImagePickerControllerOriginalImage];
// ---------RESIZE CODE--------- //
if (picture.size.width == 1936) {
picture = [picture scaleToSize:CGSizeMake(480.0f, 720.0f)];
} else {
picture = [picture scaleToSize:CGSizeMake(720.0f, 480.0f)];
}
// --------END RESIZE CODE-------- //
photoPreview.image = picture;
// ---------FRAME CODE--------- //
photoPreview.contentMode = UIViewContentModeScaleAspectFit;
CGRect frame = photoPreview.frame;
if (picture.size.width == 480) {
frame.size.width = 111.3;
frame.size.height =167;
} else {
frame.size.width = 167;
frame.size.height =111.3;
}
photoPreview.frame = frame;
// --------END FRAME CODE-------- //
NSData *webData = UIImagePNGRepresentation(picture);
CGImageRelease([picture CGImage]);
[webData writeToFile:imagePath atomically:YES];
imgPicker = nil;
}
Now I have a new issue! If I take a picture in landscape, and try to take another one in portrait, the app crashs. Do I have to release something?
