Is there a way to get NSURL of all the images in iphone without using ALAsset
I am new to iphone - objC et al. I wanted to know if there is a way by which I could get all the NSURL and filename of the images files in an iphone without making use of ALAsset ?
In the current code - it is done like below. And I see the time it takes to loop 1100 images is like 14 seconds. Is there a better way to get url,filename quickly, please let me know.
ALAssetsLibrary* assetLibrary = [[ALAssetsLibrary alloc] init];
ALAssetsGroupType type = m == 2 || m == 1 ? ALAssetsGroupAll : ALAssetsGroupLibrary;
[assetLibrary enumerateGroupsWithTypes:type usingBlock:^(ALAssetsGroup* group, BOOL* stop)
{
if (group)
{
[group setAssetsFilter:m == 1 ? [ALAssetsFilter allVideos] : [ALAssetsFilter allPhotos]];
[group enumerateAssetsUsingBlock:^(ALAsset* asset, NSUInteger index, BOOL* innerstop)
{
if (asset)
{
@autoreleasepool
{
if (!initialized)
{
*innerstop = YES;
return;
}
/***************************************************************************************/
ALAssetRepresentation* defaultRepresentation = [asset defaultRepresentation];
if(defaultRepresentation)
{
//NSLog(@"defaultRepresentation for %@", [[defaultRepresentation url] absoluteString]);
long long size = [defaultRepresentation size];
NSURL* url = [defaultRepresentation url];
NSString* fileName = [defaultRepresentation filename];
