UIImage Saving image with file name on the iPhone

How can I save an image (like using UIImageWriteToSavedPhotosAlbum(开发者_运维百科) method) with a filename of my choice to the private/var folder?

Kenny, you had the answer! For illustration I always think code is more helpful.

//I do this in the didFinishPickingImage:(UIImage *)img method

NSData* imageData = UIImageJPEGRepresentation(img, 1.0);


//save to the default 100Apple(Camera Roll) folder.   

[imageData writeToFile:@"/private/var/mobile/Media/DCIM/100APPLE/customImageFilename.jpg" atomically:NO]; 

UIImageWriteToSavedPhotosAlbum() is only used for saving to the photos camera roll. To save to a custom folder, you need to convert the UIImage into NSData with UIImageJPEGRepresentation() or UIImagePNGRepresentation(), then save this NSData to anywhere you like.

You can use below code, without use of ALAssetsLibrary...

NSString *fileName;

- (void)imagePickerController:(UIImagePickerController *)picker didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo:(NSDictionary *)info
{
[picker dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:^{

if( [picker sourceType] == UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera )
            {
                UIImageWriteToSavedPhotosAlbum(image,nil, nil, nil);
                [self performSelector:@selector(GetImageName) withObject:nil afterDelay:0.5];
            }
            else
            {
                NSURL *refURL = [info valueForKey:UIImagePickerControllerReferenceURL];
                PHFetchResult *result = [PHAsset fetchAssetsWithALAssetURLs:@[refURL] options:nil];
                fileName = [[result firstObject] filename];
            }
}];

-(void)GetImageName
{
 NSString *str =@"";
 PHFetchOptions *fetchOptions = [[PHFetchOptions alloc] init];
 fetchOptions.sortDescriptors = @[[NSSortDescriptor sortDescriptorWithKey:@"creationDate" ascending:YES]];
 PHFetchResult *fetchResult = [PHAsset fetchAssetsWithMediaType:PHAssetMediaTypeImage options:fetchOptions];

if (fetchResult != nil && fetchResult.count > 0) {

    str = [[fetchResult lastObject] filename];
}

fileName = str;
}
