This bug in my code has been driving me nuts for days, but I have finally isolated the issue - only problem now is I don't understand what I'm doing wrong.

I have a CGImage that I want to get the raw data bytes for. My code is below:

CGImageRef sectionToCache = CGImageCreateWithImageInRect(backingStore, CGRectMake(x, y, cx, cy));
NSLog(@"CGImage to cache has dimensions %d x %d and %d bytes per row", CGImageGetWidth(sectionToCache), CGImageGetHeight(sectionToCache), CGImageGetBytesPerRow(sectionToCache));
CFDataRef dataRef = CGDataProviderCopyData(CGImageGetDataProvider(sectionToCache));
NSLog(@"Length of cachedImage data: %d", CFDataGetLength(dataRef));


When the code runs, the log spits out the following:

CGImage to cache has dimensions 417 x 234 and 1668 bytes per row
Length of cachedImage data: 6672

What is killing me here is that the CGImage has dimensions 417x234 and 1668 bytes per row. That to me means that the CFDataRef that I am obtaining should be 390,312 bytes (234 x 1668). But the CFDataRef is only 6,672 bytes which is nowhere close to what I think I should be getting. So I must be doing something wrong in trying to get the bitmap data, but I'm not sure what else to do and I even found some Apple docs with an example doing the exact same thing that I am doing. Can anybody provide some insight on this? Thanks everybody.

This seems to be related to the CGImageCreateWithImageInRect() call, but I can't imagine why. CGDataProviderCopyData() seems to work perfectly with an original image in my limited testing, so please file a bug (and let me know what the bug number is).



I didn't find any documentation about CGDataProviderCopyData() except this comment in the header:


/* Return a copy of the data specified by provider. Returns NULL if a
 * complete copy of the data can't be obtained (for example, if the
 * underlying data is too large to fit in memory). */

What is the expected output format of the data it returns ?
