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!
