“Creating an image format with an unknown type is an error” with UIImagePickerController

Question

While choosing an image from the image picker in iOS 10 Swift 3 I am getting an error - Creating an image format with an unknown type is an error

Answer 1

The accepted solution by Jeetendra Choudhary works.Although in Xcode 8 with Swift 3 , I noticed that it generates a warning : Instance method 'imagePickerController(_:didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo:)' nearly matches optional requirement 'imagePickerController(_:didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo:)' of protocol 'UIImagePickerControllerDelegate'

and suggests to add either @nonobjc or private keyword to silence the warning.If you silence the warning using these suggestions , the solution no longer works though.

Answer 2

This worked for me:

func imagePickerController(_ picker: UIImagePickerController, didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo info: [String : Any]) {
    if let image = info[UIImagePickerControllerOriginalImage] as? UIImage {
        imageView.image = image
        self.dismiss(animated: true, completion: nil)
    }
}

Answer 3

Change didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo info: [String : AnyObject] , to didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo info: [String : Any]

Answer 4

func imagePickerController(_ picker: UIImagePickerController, didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo info: [String : Any]) {

         let image = info[UIImagePickerControllerOriginalImage] as? UIImage
        self.dismiss(animated: true, completion: nil)
        self.imageTook.image = image
    }

Answer 5

This worked for me. Just copy and paste it exactly.

    func imagePickerController(_ picker: UIImagePickerController, didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo info: [String : Any]) {
    // The info dictionary contains multiple representations of the image, and this uses the original.
        let selectedImage = info[UIImagePickerControllerOriginalImage] as! UIImage

    // Set photoImageView to display the selected image.
     photoImageView.image = selectedImage

    // Dismiss the picker.
    dismiss(animated: true, completion: nil)
}

Answer 6

I think you are missing a connection between photoImageView and the image.
