Get size of a UIImage (bytes length) not height and width

Question

I\'m trying to get the length of a UIImage. Not the width or height of the image, but the size of the data.

Answer 1

- (void)imagePickerController:(UIImagePickerController *)picker didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo:(NSDictionary *)editInfo
{
   UIImage *image=[editInfo valueForKey:UIImagePickerControllerOriginalImage];
   NSURL *imageURL=[editInfo valueForKey:UIImagePickerControllerReferenceURL];
   __block long long realSize;

   ALAssetsLibraryAssetForURLResultBlock resultBlock=^(ALAsset *asset)
   {
      ALAssetRepresentation *representation=[asset defaultRepresentation];
      realSize=[representation size];
   };

   ALAssetsLibraryAccessFailureBlock failureBlock=^(NSError *error)
   {
      NSLog(@"%@", [error localizedDescription]);
   };

   if(imageURL)
   {
      ALAssetsLibrary *assetsLibrary=[[[ALAssetsLibrary alloc] init] autorelease];
      [assetsLibrary assetForURL:imageURL resultBlock:resultBlock failureBlock:failureBlock];
   }
}
