I am using applozic chat sdk for ios and sending images , video successfully . My requirement is to change camera overlay. When I try to add overlay on camera it crashes. 

 let camaraObj : ALImagePickerController = ALImagePickerController()

 let overlay =UIView(frame: UIScreen.mainScreen().bounds)
 overlay.backgroundColor = UIColor.redColor()     
 camaraObj.cameraOverlayView = overlay

Crash log: libc++abi.dylib: terminating with uncaught exception of type NSException.

Any help ?

Looks like you are not setting the sourceType. ALImagePickerController is used for sending pictures from photos only. You need to explicitly set source type if you want to use it for camera.

i.e. self.mImagePicker.sourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera;

We just tried the same and got below exception:

  • Hi adarsh , we tried this but overlay is not showing when we open camera in chat attachment. But yes it ignore crash. We are still trying to add overlay on camera. – Chanchal Warde Jan 30 '17 at 09:55
  • Can you please try with frame from picker-view itself? – Adarsh Jan 30 '17 at 10:08
  • Can you please suggest code and where to add this code. As we are adding this in AppDelegate when application launching. – Chanchal Warde Jan 30 '17 at 10:25
  • You can use something like : let camaraObj : ALImagePickerController = ALImagePickerController() let overlay = UIView(frame: camaraObj.view.frame) camaraObj.sourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceType.camera overlay.backgroundColor = UIColor.red; camaraObj.cameraOverlayView = overlay; self.present(camaraObj, animated:true, completion: nil) – Adarsh Jan 30 '17 at 11:59
