I'm trying to figure out how to populate an image viewer with an image stored on the camera roll of an iPhone. I was thinking of using the following code:

   @IBOutlet weak var imageoutlet: UIImageView!  //remove the weak
override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()
    imageoutlet.image = UIImage(named:"IMG_0031.JPG")

    // Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.
}

As a way to populate the image viewer object (called imageoutlet) with an image named "IMG_0031.JPG"). I tried doing it this way but unfortunately it did not work. If someone can give me advice on a good way to access and populate images stored on an iPhone's Camera roll, I will be very grateful. Thanks!

do you want to find specific image or all images from Camera roll? – techloverr Mar 07 '16 at 11:37
Either would be good at this point. Preferably a specific image – John123 Mar 07 '16 at 11:38
to find the specific, how can you select the params? – techloverr Mar 07 '16 at 11:38

Thanks, these are both fairly useful. Where exactly should I put this? – John123 Mar 07 '16 at 11:41
in viewDidLoad and use background thread to populate the array – techloverr Mar 07 '16 at 11:42
