ios ALAsset 通过CGImageWithOptions: 压缩照片技术

 最近在做云相册的功能，把相册的照片上传到云端，但是上传大照片的时候会报内存警告，有时也会发生崩溃现象。比如我的ipod-touch照的一张全景图片有8.3MB,刚要开始上传就报内存警告。我试过通过处理照片把照片把它的宽高各减少一半，然后再上传，但是还会是有内存警告，因为需要把这张照片全部加载到内存才能进行处理。怎么才能避免内存警告是我们接下来讨论的问题。

• 通过查看API找到出路

        上传照片库里的照片，我们需要用到ALAsset这个类，查看其api可以找到如下几个方法来获取图片：

• - (CGImageRef)thumbnail;
  

• - (CGImageRef)aspectRatioThumbnail；

• [[asset defaultRepresentation] fullResolutionImage];

• [[asset defaultRepresentation]CGImageWithOptions：(NSDictionary *)options];

        前三个想必很容易理解，可以立马排除掉，剩下的希望就只剩下第四个方法了。但是第四个文档上说的不是很清楚，在苹果的api文档上面搜索也没相应的demo。在百度上搜索CGImageWithOptions，看了好多博客都只是提到了CGImageWithOptions,但是并没有详细介绍其如何应用。然后我又在谷歌上搜索，谷歌上搜索也很少，只有5页搜索结果，经过我自己想拜读各个博客，总算在一个角落里找到了个如何使用的链接，通过链接找到了如何使用的文章。废话不多说了，下面给出代码。

#import <ImageIO/ImageIO.h>

 

// Helper methods for thumbnailForAsset:maxPixelSize:

static  size_t  getAssetBytesCallback( void  *info,  void  *buffer, off_t position,  size_t  count)

 {

     ALAssetRepresentation *rep = (__bridge id)info;

     

     NSError *error = nil;

     size_t  countRead = [rep getBytes:(uint8_t *)buffer fromOffset:position length:count error:&error];

     

     if  (countRead == 0 && error) {

         // We have no way of passing this info back to the caller, so we log it, at least.

         NSLog(@ "thumbnailForAsset:maxPixelSize: got an error reading an asset: %@" , error);

     }

     

     return  countRead;

}

 

static  void  releaseAssetCallback( void  *info)

 {

     // The info here is an ALAssetRepresentation which we CFRetain in thumbnailForAsset:maxPixelSize:.

     // This release balances that retain.

     CFRelease(info);

}

 

// Returns a UIImage for the given asset, with size length at most the passed size.

// The resulting UIImage will be already rotated to UIImageOrientationUp, so its CGImageRef

// can be used directly without additional rotation handling.

// This is done synchronously, so you should call this method on a background queue/thread.




- (UIImage *)thumbnailForAsset:(ALAsset *)asset maxPixelSize:(NSUInteger)size 

{

     NSParameterAssert(asset != nil);

     NSParameterAssert(size > 0);

     

     ALAssetRepresentation *rep = [asset defaultRepresentation];

     

     CGDataProviderDirectCallbacks callbacks =

 {

         .version = 0,

         .getBytePointer = NULL,

         .releaseBytePointer = NULL,

         .getBytesAtPosition = getAssetBytesCallback,

         .releaseInfo = releaseAssetCallback,

  };

     

     CGDataProviderRef provider = CGDataProviderCreateDirect(( void  *)CFBridgingRetain(rep), [rep size], &callbacks);




     CGImageSourceRef source = CGImageSourceCreateWithDataProvider(provider, NULL);

     

     CGImageRef imageRef = CGImageSourceCreateThumbnailAtIndex(source, 0, (__bridge CFDictionaryRef) 

@{     (NSString *)kCGImageSourceCreateThumbnailFromImageAlways : @YES,

      (NSString *)kCGImageSourceThumbnailMaxPixelSize : [NSNumber numberWithInt:size],

      (NSString *)kCGImageSourceCreateThumbnailWithTransform : @YES,

     });




     CFRelease(source);

     CFRelease(provider);

 

     if  (!imageRef) {

         return  nil;

     }

     

     UIImage *toReturn = [UIImage imageWithCGImage:imageRef];

     

     CFRelease(imageRef);

     

     return  toReturn;
