I'm getting memory leak with UIImagePickerController class.
Here's how I'm using it:
UIImagePickerController *picker = [[UIImagePickerController alloc] init];
picker.delegate = self;
picker.sourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypePhotoLibrary;
[self presentModalViewController:picker animated:YES];
[picker release];
To remove the picker i call [picker dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
in didFinishPickingImage
and imagePickerControllerDidCancel
.
--
Instruments show around 160bytes leaking as a result of this instruction:
+[UIImagePickerController _loadPhotoLibraryIfNecessary]
Apparently this issue has and is disturbing many people, and solution to avoid this problem is to build a singleton class dedicated for picking images from library or capturing using device's build in camera.
Anyone want to add something?
