Sure, here's the parts that I think is of value:
Heres how my queue is defined:
class MetadataDownloader
@@queue = Dispatch::Queue.new("se.kennylovrin.test")
class << self
def fetch(id)
downloader = new(id)
@@queue.async do
downloader.start
end
end
end
<more code here.....>
end
I use this by looping an array of integers, calling
MetadataDownloader.fetch(var), hoping it will instantiate a new downloader
and start it in the queue. :)
Then, it does some work, connecting to some API's and downloading som data
which contains a url to an image, that url is later passed into this
instance method:
def save_poster(url)
stamp = Time.now.to_i
save_path = File.join CoreDataManager.instance.app_support_dir, "posters",
"#{stamp}.jpg"
save_path_small = File.join CoreDataManager.instance.app_support_dir,
"posters", "#{stamp}_small.jpg"
fm = NSFileManager.defaultManager
unless fm.fileExistsAtPath save_path
error = Pointer.new_with_type "@"
unless fm.createDirectoryAtPath save_path.stringByDeletingLastPathComponent,
withIntermediateDirectories:true, attributes:nil, error:error
NSLog "Failed to create dir for poster"
return nil
end
img_data = NSData.dataWithContentsOfURL NSURL.URLWithString(url)
if img_data && fm.createFileAtPath(save_path, contents:img_data,
attributes:nil)
NSLog "Fullsize poster saved"
jpeg_data = rescaled_image img_data
unless jpeg_data && jpeg_data.writeToFile(save_path_small, atomically:true)
NSLog "Failed to scale down poster at #{save_path_small}"
return nil
end
NSLog "Small poster saved"
else
NSLog "Failed to save poster at #{save_path}"
return nil
end
img_data = nil
end
save_path_small
end
which uses this instance method to do the scaling (this seems to be where
the problem is):
def rescaled_image(img_data)
NSLog "Rescaling poster"
NSLog "Calculating dimensions"
img = CIImage.imageWithData img_data
y_scale = 300 / img.extent.size.height
x_scale = 200 / img.extent.size.width
scale = [y_scale, x_scale].min
NSLog "Setting up filter"
scale_filter = CIFilter.filterWithName "CILanczosScaleTransform"
scale_filter.setValue(NSNumber.numberWithFloat(scale), forKey:"inputScale")
scale_filter.setValue(NSNumber.numberWithFloat(1.0),
forKey:"inputAspectRatio")
scale_filter.setValue(img, forKey:"inputImage")
NSLog "Getting scaled image from filter"
img = scale_filter.valueForKey "outputImage"
NSLog "Create bitmap rep from image"
rep = NSBitmapImageRep.alloc.initWithCIImage img
NSLog "#{rep}"
options = NSMutableDictionary.dictionaryWithObject
NSNumber.numberWithFloat(0.85), forKey:NSImageCompressionFactor
options.setValue(NSNumber.numberWithBool(true), forKey:NSImageProgressive)
NSLog "Getting jpeg data from bitmap rep"
jpeg_data = rep.representationUsingType NSJPEGFileType, properties:options
NSLog "Rescale done, returning data"
jpeg_data
end
As I said, it crashes randomly, but always at the line where it's trying t
get the jpeg representation.. I'm pretty new to Cocoa so I there might be
something stupod going on here.. ;) Everything works as expected if I do not
try to do the image scaling..
I think I am on MacRuby rev. 4407, but there is a risk I have done an update
to rev 4407 but never built it.. I think that is what I have installed
though.
What do I need to do to get a proper crash log? :)
Thanks a lot!
