iPhone上关于相机拍照的图片的imageOrientation的问题

用相机拍摄出来的照片含有EXIF信息，UIImage的imageOrientation属性指的就是EXIF中的orientation信息。
如果我们忽略orientation信息，而直接对照片进行像素处理或者drawInRect等操作，得到的结果是翻转或者旋转90之后的样子。这是因为我们执行像素处理或者drawInRect等操作之后，imageOrientaion信息被删除了，imageOrientaion被重设为0，造成照片内容和imageOrientaion不匹配。
所以，在对照片进行处理之前，先将照片旋转到正确的方向，并且返回的imageOrientaion为0。
下面这个方法就是一个UIImage category中的方法，用它可以达到以上目的。

- (UIImage *)fixOrientation:(UIImage *)aImage {        // No-op if the orientation is already correct    if (aImage.imageOrientation == UIImageOrientationUp)         return aImage;        // We need to calculate the proper transformation to make the image upright.    // We do it in 2 steps: Rotate if Left/Right/Down, and then flip if Mirrored.    CGAffineTransform transform = CGAffineTransformIdentity;        switch (aImage.imageOrientation) {        case UIImageOrientationDown:        case UIImageOrientationDownMirrored:            transform = CGAffineTransformTranslate(transform, aImage.size.width, aImage.size.height);            transform = CGAffineTransformRotate(transform, M_PI);            break;                    case UIImageOrientationLeft:        case UIImageOrientationLeftMirrored:            transform = CGAffineTransformTranslate(transform, aImage.size.width, 0);            transform = CGAffineTransformRotate(transform, M_PI_2);            break;                    case UIImageOrientationRight:        case UIImageOrientationRightMirrored:            transform = CGAffineTransformTranslate(transform, 0, aImage.size.height);            transform = CGAffineTransformRotate(transform, -M_PI_2);            break;        default:            break;    }        switch (aImage.imageOrientation) {        case UIImageOrientationUpMirrored:        case UIImageOrientationDownMirrored:            transform = CGAffineTransformTranslate(transform, aImage.size.width, 0);            transform = CGAffineTransformScale(transform, -1, 1);            break;                    case UIImageOrientationLeftMirrored:        case UIImageOrientationRightMirrored:            transform = CGAffineTransformTranslate(transform, aImage.size.height, 0);            transform = CGAffineTransformScale(transform, -1, 1);            break;        default:            break;    }        // Now we draw the underlying CGImage into a new context, applying the transform    // calculated above.    CGContextRef ctx = CGBitmapContextCreate(NULL, aImage.size.width, aImage.size.height,                                             CGImageGetBitsPerComponent(aImage.CGImage), 0,                                             CGImageGetColorSpace(aImage.CGImage),                                             CGImageGetBitmapInfo(aImage.CGImage));    CGContextConcatCTM(ctx, transform);    switch (aImage.imageOrientation) {        case UIImageOrientationLeft:        case UIImageOrientationLeftMirrored:        case UIImageOrientationRight:        case UIImageOrientationRightMirrored:            // Grr...            CGContextDrawImage(ctx, CGRectMake(0,0,aImage.size.height,aImage.size.width), aImage.CGImage);            break;                    default:            CGContextDrawImage(ctx, CGRectMake(0,0,aImage.size.width,aImage.size.height), aImage.CGImage);            break;    }        // And now we just create a new UIImage from the drawing context    CGImageRef cgimg = CGBitmapContextCreateImage(ctx);    UIImage *img = [UIImage imageWithCGImage:cgimg];    CGContextRelease(ctx);    CGImageRelease(cgimg);    return img;}
