The simplest way to resize an UIImage?

Question

In my iPhone app, I take a picture with the camera, then I want to resize it to 290*390 pixels. I was using this method to resize the image :

UIImage *newI         


        

Answer 1

Rogerio Chaves answer as a swift extension

func scaledTo(size: CGSize) -> UIImage{
    UIGraphicsBeginImageContextWithOptions(size, false, 0.0);
    self.draw(in: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: size.width, height: size.height))
    let newImage:UIImage = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext()!
    UIGraphicsEndImageContext()
    return newImage
}

And also bonus

func scaledTo(height: CGFloat) -> UIImage{
    let width = height*self.size.width/self.size.height
    return scaledTo(size: CGSize(width: width, height: height))
}
