Hi,
i am developing a 2d game on iphone in which i want to maginify the views on the screen to give the effect that the user is looking through the sniper whenever the user taps the screen.. i am required to show that the objects which the player wants to shoot should be moving...so im incremeting their position as well as increasing their size... so i want this magnified image to show the updated positions of the moved objects at runtime to give the effect that the user is looking through the snpier...
i am trying to cut a image and mask it....that i am able to do successfully..but the program exits after few minutes with 101 status
- (void) maskImage
{
if(scopeOn==1)
{
UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(self.bounds.size);
[self.layer renderInContext:UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext()];
cachedImage=[UIImage imageNamed
"loop.png"];
cachedImage = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();
UIGraphicsEndImageContext();
imageRef = [cachedImage CGImage];
subImage = CGImageCreateWithImageInRect(imageRef,
CGRectMake(scopeLoc.x-25, scopeLoc.y-25, 50, 50));
xMaskedImage = CGImageCreateWithMask(subImage, mask);
zoomImg.image = [UIImage imageWithCGImage:xMaskedImage];
[zoomImg setCenter:scopeLoc];
[self addSubview:zoomImg];
CGImageRelease(subImage);
CGImageRelease(xMaskedImage);
}
}
this is the code that i am using....since i am not allocating explicit memory my guess is that CGImageCreateWithImageInRect function is allocating memory but it is not being released...this function is called after every 0.1 secs...so eventually a large amount of memoey is allocated(i have seen this in memory leak performance monitor)
So is there any other way in which i can achive the same wihtout this function??
Is there other way so I can get the magnified image and it can solve my memory issue also. Please reply me as soon as possible.
