Converting UIImageView to UIImage

Question

I'm working with images, I have tonnes of them, and I'm downloading them in real time from the server, before it was really fast with the AsyncImageView class, but know I'm working with the custom class, that takes UIImage instead of UIImageView.

Question: Is there any good way to convert UIImageView to UIImage?

Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

you dont need to show a UIImageView inside a UIImage. Maybe you want to show a UIImageView inside another UIImageView or maybe you want to access the UIImageView's image property, which you can do with imageView.image:

UIImage *imageFromImageView = myImageView.image

or if its the image view inside another image view option:

[myOuterImageView addSubiew:myInnerImageView];
