UIPopoverController crash on iPad running iOS 5.0.1? - ios

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.

How to dismiss UIImagePickerController on iPad

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>

iOS App - Trying to Get iOS photo from gallery but getting an error

I'm new to iOS coding, so my apologies in advance. I know this topic has been covered many times (I searched) however I can't seem to resolve my problem, which is why I am posting.
I am trying to access the iOS photo gallery but I keep getting two errors:
One is
'Application tried to present a nil modal view controller on target .'
Edit: The above error was fixed by initing the _picker in ChooseExsisting, as was suggested in the comments.
The other
[CameraController ChooseExsiting:]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x157e11330'
My code is as follows:
- (IBAction)ChooseExsiting {
UIImagePickerController *pickerController = [[UIImagePickerController alloc]
init];
pickerController.delegate = self;
[self.picker setSourceType:UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypePhotoLibrary];
[self presentViewController:_picker animated:YES completion:NULL]; }
I imagine my ChooseExsisting code is incorrect. Would anyone have any suggestions? I would greatly appreciate it.
In your ChooseExisting method, you instantiate a controller into a local variable, but then call present with _picker property variable which is probably nil. Either present the controller from the local variable or init the property like in TakePhoto method.
EDIT: As for the second part, both your IBActions have a wrong method signature if you are connecting them to Tap handlers in the Storyboard for example. They should look like this:
- (IBAction) TakePhoto:(id)sender
- (IBAction) ChooseExsiting:(id)sender
Change your ChooseExisitng method to below one:
- (IBAction)ChooseExsiting:(id) sender {
UIImagePickerController *pickerController = [[UIImagePickerController alloc]
init];
pickerController.delegate = self;
[pickerController setSourceType:UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypePhotoLibrary];
[self presentViewController:pickerController animated:YES completion:NULL]; }
or
- (IBAction)ChooseExsiting:(id) sender {
self.picker = [[UIImagePickerController alloc]
init];
self.picker.delegate = self;
[self.picker setSourceType:UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypePhotoLibrary];
[self presentViewController:self.picker animated:YES completion:NULL]; }
You can try this . It work for me
Follow below three steps1.First of all you need to add below delegate in .h file (UIImagePickerControllerDelegate,UIPickerViewDelegate)
2.Add below three methods in your controller
3. On button click call below methods
here choose photo for open gallary. so on button click call choose photo method
- (void)imagePickerController:(UIImagePickerController *)picker didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo:(NSDictionary *)info
{
CGSize newSize=CGSizeMake(150, 150);
UIGraphicsBeginImageContextWithOptions(newSize, NO, 0.0);
[[info objectForKey:UIImagePickerControllerEditedImage] drawInRect:CGRectMake(0, 0, newSize.width, newSize.height)];
UIImage *newImage = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();
UIGraphicsEndImageContext();
img_profile_pic.image = newImage;
[self dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
isProfilePic=TRUE;
}
- (void)showImagePickerForSourceType:(UIImagePickerControllerSourceType)sourceType
{
UIImagePickerController *imagePickerController = [[UIImagePickerController alloc] init];
imagePickerController.allowsEditing = YES;
imagePickerController.modalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationCurrentContext;
imagePickerController.sourceType = sourceType;
imagePickerController.delegate = self;
imagePickerController = imagePickerController;
[self presentViewController:imagePickerController animated:YES completion:nil];
}
- (void)imagePickerControllerDidCancel:(UIImagePickerController *)picker
{
[self dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
}
-(void) takePhoto{
[self showImagePickerForSourceType:UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera];
}
-(void) choosePhoto{
[self showImagePickerForSourceType:UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypePhotoLibrary];
}
Instead of doing
if ([UIImagePickerController isSourceTypeAvailable:!UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera]) {
self.picker = [[UIImagePickerController alloc] init];
self.picker.delegate = self;
[self.picker setSourceType:UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera];
[self presentViewController:_picker animated:YES completion:NULL];
} }
You should do this
if ([UIImagePickerController isSourceTypeAvailable:!UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera]) {
if(!_picker){
_picker = [[UIImagePickerController alloc] init];
_picker.delegate = self;
[_picker setSourceType:UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera];
[self presentViewController:_picker animated:YES completion:NULL];
}else{
[self presentViewController:_picker animated:YES completion:NULL];
}}}
You should initialize _picker property before presenting it, right now you're trying to initialize local property of VC or you can also present self.picker instead of _picker in your code.

Dismiss a imagepickercontroller

I'm trying to dismiss a imagepickercontroller (album or camera) which is presented as below
[self.view.window.rootViewController presentViewController:imagePicker animated:YES completion:nil];
By calling :
[self dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:NULL];
I can't dismiss the imagepickercontroller.
Any body can help me on this?
I use this:
if (UI_USER_INTERFACE_IDIOM() == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPhone)
[self dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
else
[popover dismissPopoverAnimated:YES];
Don't know whether the NULL rather than nil would matter, but it should be nil.
The picker is presented with the following code:
- (void)getVideoFromDevice
{
if (UI_USER_INTERFACE_IDIOM() == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPad) // for ipad only
{
UIImagePickerController *imagePicker = [[UIImagePickerController alloc] init];
imagePicker.delegate = self;
imagePicker.sourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypePhotoLibrary;
imagePicker.allowsEditing = NO;
imagePicker.videoQuality = UIImagePickerControllerQualityTypeLow;
imagePicker.mediaTypes = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:(NSString *)kUTTypeMovie, nil];;
popover = [[UIPopoverController alloc] initWithContentViewController:imagePicker];
[popover presentPopoverFromBarButtonItem:[self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItems objectAtIndex:0] permittedArrowDirections: UIPopoverArrowDirectionAny animated:YES];
}
else // for iphone only - NOT TESTED
{
UIImagePickerController *imagePicker = [[UIImagePickerController alloc] init];
imagePicker.delegate = self;
imagePicker.sourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypePhotoLibrary;
[self presentViewController:imagePicker animated:YES completion:nil];
}
}
I haven't tested the code for iPhone yet but the iPad portion is working correctly.
You need to dismiss the UIImagePickerViewController in the delegate methods: imagePickerController: didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo: and imagePickerControllerDidCancel:. Just be sure to assign the UIImagePickerViewController delegate to the UIViewController that presents the UIImagePickerViewController.
Example:
- (void)imagePickerControllerDidCancel:(UIImagePickerController *) picker
{
[picker dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
}
- (void) imagePickerController: (UIImagePickerController *) picker didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo: (NSDictionary *) info
{
[picker dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
}

UIPickerController crashes the app

I have a UIPickerController that gets your pictures and allows you to pick some of them though at the moment when I click the button to activate it the app crashes.
Here is the code that I am using for it:
in my ViewDidLoad method:
pickerController = [[UIImagePickerController alloc] init];
pickerController.allowsEditing = NO;
pickerController.sourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeSavedPhotosAlbum;
The function:
-(void)imagePickerController:(UIImagePickerController *)picker didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo:(NSDictionary *)info {
[self dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
patientPicture = [info objectForKey:#"UIImagePickerControllerOriginalImage"];
UIImageView *pictureView = (UIImageView *)[imageCell viewWithTag:777];
pictureView.image = patientPicture;
[_imgViewAdd reloadInputViews];
}
And it being called:
- (IBAction)addPicture:(id)sender {
[self presentViewController:pickerController animated:YES completion:nil];
}
It is wierd because I have recently changed my app to Ipad only though while it was in IPhone it worked fine. When you click the button in NSLog this error message crops up which I supose is something to do with it:
UIStatusBarStyleBlackTranslucent is not available on this device.
I suspect this is quite a common issue that people have
Thanks in advance
Try presenting in a popover...
pickerController = [[UIImagePickerController alloc] init];
UIPopoverController *popOverController = [[UIPopoverController alloc] initWithContentViewController:pickerController];
popOverController.delegate = self;
and to present...
[popOverController presentPopoverFromRect:yourframe inView:self.view permittedArrowDirections:UIPopoverArrowDirectionAny animated:YES];

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:
