Call takePicture?

[Steake]

Hi, i want to write a method to call - (void)takePicture but the problem is this

I have created a picker object (with the proper source type) but the problem is this…

I need to call that method, i'm guessing that it needs to be called on the picker object… [picker takePicture]; but the method needs to be outside the pickers method..

So i've got this

-(IBAction)takePict {

//Set up picker with sourcetype of camera
}


-(void) takePictureMethod {
// this is where i'm stuck
}

Thanks

any method defined in the documentation can becalled from outside by [pointerToInstance method];

So you probably just need to get a pointer to the image picker, which is easy, because you are instantiating it to show it.

First you need to

assign Camera as UIImagePicker Source
then delegate method
then calling a function to open shutter
then take picture

I'm trying to do basically the same thing as the original post. For some reason, when I call takePicture, I can't get at the picture that was captured.

The following method never seems to get called:

- (void)imagePickerController:(UIImagePickerController *)picker didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo:(NSDictionary *)info{
	printf("Did finish picking with info");
	
	[picker release];
}

Is there something that needs to happen to get this method to be called once the picture is taken? Currently I have the method typed in my code, but that is it. I don't see it being "linked" to anything else.

Hi,

I am having a problem with the use of takePicture method on an iphone. I am basically trying to take pictures using the -(void)takePicture method. However, I could not find a good tutorial that explains how to do this. I am new to the iphone app development.

Currently, what I have is a view controller which

creates a picker controller,
sets the picker controller's properties (sourcetype, toolbarhidden, etc.)
creates an overlay view and assigns it to the picker (picker.cameraOverlayView = overlay).
sets the delegate to self
and shows the picker with [self presentModalViewControllericker animated:NO].
On the overlayed view, I have a button. When this button is called, it is supposed to activate the camera's takePicture method. However, I am not sure how to call the picker pointer from inside the overlay view. I'd appreciate any source code examples, but pseudo-code is welcome as well.

Thanks, K.
