How to dismiss UIImagePickerController on iPad - ios

I am using a UIImagePickerController.
UIImagePickerController *picker = [[UIImagePickerController alloc] init];
picker.delegate = self;
picker.allowsEditing = YES;
picker.sourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypePhotoLibrary;
popover = [[UIPopoverController alloc] initWithContentViewController:picker];
[popover presentPopoverFromRect:CGRectMake(0, 10, 500, 500) inView:self.view permittedArrowDirections:UIPopoverArrowDirectionAny animated:YES];
When I use any photo from gallery class delegate didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo is called.
- (void)imagePickerController:(UIImagePickerController *)picker didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo:(NSDictionary *)info {
NSLog(#"inside Delegate image pick");
[popover dismissPopoverAnimated:YES];
[picker dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:NULL];
}
That is working fine, but I'm having trouble with the imagePickerControllerDidCancel delegate method.
- (void)imagePickerControllerDidCancel:(UIImagePickerController *)picker {
NSLog(#"inside Cancel ");
[popover dismissPopoverAnimated:YES];
[picker dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:NULL];
}
imagePickerControllerDidCancel is never called, and I don't know why. How do I dismiss the popover when the user clicks cancel?

If imagePickerControllerDidCancel does not get call it means you need to implement UIImagePickerControllerDelegate
Example
#interface ImageViewController : UIViewController<UIImagePickerControllerDelegate>

UIImagePickerController delegate not called when sourceType is Photo Library

I have a problem where the delegate of UIImagePickerController not being called when presented with sourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypePhotoLibrary.
Oddly enough, it works perfectly fine in camera mode.
Interface declaration:
#interface ChatVC : UIViewController <UIActionSheetDelegate, UIImagePickerControllerDelegate, UINavigationControllerDelegate>
And in implementation:
- (void)takePhotoAction {
if ([UIImagePickerController isSourceTypeAvailable:UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera]) {
UIImagePickerController* imgPickerController = [[UIImagePickerController alloc] init];
imgPickerController.sourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera;
imgPickerController.cameraCaptureMode = UIImagePickerControllerCameraCaptureModePhoto;
imgPickerController.allowsEditing = YES;
imgPickerController.delegate = self;
[self presentViewController:imgPickerController animated:YES completion:nil];
}
}
- (void)choosePhotoFromLibraryAction {
if ([UIImagePickerController isSourceTypeAvailable:UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypePhotoLibrary]) {
UIImagePickerController* imgPickerController = [[UIImagePickerController alloc] init];
imgPickerController.sourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypePhotoLibrary;
imgPickerController.allowsEditing = YES;
imgPickerController.delegate = self;
[self presentViewController:imgPickerController animated:YES completion:nil];
}
}
And here's the delegate method implementation in the same view controller:
- (void)imagePickerController:(UIImagePickerController *)picker didFinishPickingImage:(UIImage *)image editingInfo:(NSDictionary<NSString *,id> *)editingInfo {
NSLog(#"Image Picker Controller Picked Image - Deprecated");
[picker dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
}
- (void)imagePickerController:(UIImagePickerController *)picker didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo:(NSDictionary *)info {
NSLog(#"Image Picker Controller Picked Image");
[picker dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
}
- (void)imagePickerControllerDidCancel:(UIImagePickerController *)picker {
NSLog(#"Image Picker Controller Cancelled");
[picker dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
}
When opened in camera mode, everything works just fine, and I can see the appropriate delegate methods being called.
But when opened in photo library mode and I choose a photo, nothing happens and no delegate method is called. However, I can see -imagePickerControllerDidCancel: delegate method being called when I tap on Cancel button.
I even suspected memory warning somehow invalidates the delegate, but it was not the case here.
Please someone help me figure this out.
Thanks in advance!

ios UIImagePickerController not working

UIImagePickerController *imagePicker = [[UIImagePickerController alloc] init] ;
[imagePicker setAllowsEditing:YES] ;
[imagePicker setDelegate:self] ;
[imagePicker setMediaTypes:[NSArray arrayWithObjects:(NSString *)kUTTypeImage, nil]] ;
[imagePicker setSourceType:UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypePhotoLibrary] ;
[self presentViewController:imagePicker animated:YES completion:nil] ;
Step 1: Add Delegate
#interface APPViewController : UIViewController <UIImagePickerControllerDelegate, UINavigationControllerDelegate>
Step 2: Initialize UIImagePicker on click button Action
- (IBAction)selectPhoto:(UIButton *)sender {
UIImagePickerController *picker = [[UIImagePickerController alloc] init];
picker.delegate = self;
picker.allowsEditing = YES;
picker.sourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypePhotoLibrary;
[self presentViewController:picker animated:YES completion:NULL];
}
Step 3:
- (void)imagePickerController:(UIImagePickerController *)picker didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo:(NSDictionary *)info {
UIImage *chosenImage = info[UIImagePickerControllerEditedImage];
self.imageView.image = chosenImage;
[picker dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:NULL];
}
Step 4: Dismiss controller
- (void)imagePickerControllerDidCancel:(UIImagePickerController *)picker
{
[picker dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:NULL];
}
Note: Post your Question with detail description
You are using UIImagePickerController as a variable not as an attribute or property, it means that it will be released at the end of your function. Set your UIImagePickerController as an attribute or property and then the delegate will work.
If you are using a UIPopoverPresentationController, make sure you dismiss the popover before presenting the imagePicker. Otherwise, it will not be shown.

DismissViewControllerAnimated not working with navigation

In my application i have used the following code to implement after dismissing the view i have pushed to new view,When i tried to implement the view is not dismissing instead it overlapping.Here my code,
-(IBAction)selectExitingPicture
{
if([UIImagePickerController isSourceTypeAvailable:
UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypePhotoLibrary])
  {
UIImagePickerController *picker= [[UIImagePickerController alloc]init];
picker.delegate = self;
picker.sourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypePhotoLibrary;
[self presentViewController:picker animated:YES completion:nil];
}
}
-(void)imagePickerController:(UIImagePickerController *)picker didFinishPickingImage:(UIImage *)image
editingInfo:(NSDictionary *)editingInfo
{
[picker dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:^{
cropingImageViewCon = [[CropingImageViewControl alloc]initWithNibName:#"CropingImageView" bundle:nil];
cropingImageViewCon.delegate = self;
cropingImageViewCon.originalImg = image;
[self.navigationController presentModalViewController:cropingImageViewCon animated:YES];
}];
}
Whats wrong with my code,Can any one please help out.
If you want to push into CropingImageViewControl then you are going wrong way,
Use
[self.navigationController pushViewController:yourViewCotrollerObject animated:YES];
instead of using presentModalViewController:

UIPopoverController crash on iPad running iOS 5.0.1?

I am using a UIImagePickerController on iOS 5 with the iPad and my app just got rejected because it crashed on their end. It doesn't crash on my end but I am sure it has to do with the UIPopoverController.
Please just point anything out that looks bad!
To show the UIImagePickerController:
- (IBAction)photoLibraryiPad {
if (popoverController) {
if ([self.popoverController isPopoverVisible]) {
[self.popoverController dismissPopoverAnimated:YES];
[popoverController setDelegate:nil];
[popoverController release];
}
} else {
if ([UIImagePickerController isSourceTypeAvailable:
UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeSavedPhotosAlbum])
{
UIImagePickerController *imagePicker =
[[UIImagePickerController alloc] init];
imagePicker.delegate = self;
imagePicker.sourceType =
UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypePhotoLibrary;
imagePicker.allowsEditing = YES;
self.popoverController = [[UIPopoverController alloc]
initWithContentViewController:imagePicker];
popoverController.delegate = self;
[self.popoverController presentPopoverFromRect:photolibrarybutton.frame inView:self.view permittedArrowDirections:UIPopoverArrowDirectionAny animated:YES];
[imagePicker release];
}
}
}
Then this is where it is crashing on their end:
- (void)imagePickerController:(UIImagePickerController *)picker didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo:(NSDictionary *)info {
if ([self.popoverController isPopoverVisible]) {
[self.popoverController dismissPopoverAnimated:YES];
[popoverController setDelegate:nil];
[popoverController release];
}
[noimageAvailable setHidden:YES];
UIImage *originalImage = (UIImage *) [info objectForKey:
UIImagePickerControllerEditedImage];
[imgPic setImage:originalImage forState:UIControlStateNormal];
// Hide picker selector
[picker dismissModalViewControllerAnimated: YES];
[picker release];
}
Two things:
1) When you release the popover, you should set the delegate to nil. popoverController.delegate = nil before calling [popoverController release]. Chances are if you try to use the picker multiple times, it will crash for you too. The delegate is calling an object that no longer exists.
2) When checking to see if the popover is visible, check to make sure it exists first.

dismissModalViewControllerAnimated: does not dismiss the modal view

After capturing the image, callback occurs but something is wrong cause it's not dismissing the Camera View. My code is pretty straight forward, my only doubt is that I am using a tab bar controller and pushing the imagePicker within one of the tabs, just a thought.
- (IBAction)imageButtonPressed:(id)sender {
UIImagePickerController *imagePicker = [[UIImagePickerController alloc] init];
imagePicker.sourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera;
imagePicker.delegate = self;
imagePicker.allowsEditing = YES;
[self presentModalViewController:imagePicker animated:YES];
}
- (void)imagePickerController:(UIImagePickerController *)picker didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo:(NSDictionary *)info {
[self dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
self.portaitImage.image = [info objectForKey:UIImagePickerControllerOriginalImage];
}
You need to dismiss UIImagePickerController, not self:
[picker dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
