How to save images in camera roll in iphone programmatically?

Question

I am developing one application. In that I want to save my pictures in camera roll. So how to save my pictures in camera roll through code?

Answer 1

The most basic way (and the only way if you're targeting iOS before 4.0) is to use UIImageWriteToSavedPhotosAlbum. This lets you specify a selector to be called on a target object when the save is complete.

In 4.0, you can use ALAssetsLibrary's writeImageToSavedPhotosAlbum:orientation:completionBlock: to write the image; in this case, you provide a block to be called when the save is complete.

In 4.1, you can also use ALAssetsLibrary's writeImageDataToSavedPhotosAlbum:metadata:completionBlock: or writeImageToSavedPhotosAlbum:metadata:completionBlock: to write an image along with metadata (e.g. geotagging information). The former is also the only way to write an image from an NSData object without first loading it as a UIImage or CGImageRef.
