ANE-PhotosAlbum is a native extension to save image as JPEG or PNG to iOS CameraRoll. The extension saves a new image based on a ByteArray containing the original image data (encoded as JPEG or PNG). The save operation dispatches two events, one to indicate success and another one to indicate an error occurred.

This extension is useful to create mobile apps where the user must save the result of any graphical operation, such as painting or shooting a photo.
