How can I get the file path from a UIImage?

Question

Usually it\'s the other way around, you use the path to display the image. I was wondering if you can get the path if you already have the image.

Answer 1

Once a UIImage is created, the image data is loaded into memory and no longer connected to the file on disk. As such, the file can be deleted or modified without consequence to the UIImage and there is no way of getting the source path from a UIImage.
