Import images from Photo library
« on: August 06, 2021, 01:43:47 pm »
Hi,

Is there any example how I can show a system window to import selected image(s) from Photo library on Mac?

Thanks, but regrettably it doesn't include my case. I need to copy selected images from Photo library to my app.

Thanks, yes, it seems that I need PhotoKit.

Does Lazarus include some component to implement this feature?

Photokit requires macOS 10.11+ but the FPC Cocoa headers are only up to 10.10.

Thanks, I hope that future FPC 3.4.0 will be based on SDK 10.11 or newer.

Igor, the headers are parsed now so you can try using the Photos frameworks now. https://forum.lazarus.freepascal.org/index.php/topic,56171.0.html

Hi Ryan,

Many thanks! I'll try these headers with Photo library tomorrow on my M1 Mac.

Apologies for responding to a very old thread, but did you (Igor) ever get PhotoKit to work?
I see the proper units in cocoaint fpc sources, but Lazarus is not picking them up - fpc didn't even compile these units for some reason.
