I rotate image upside down but how to flip it horizontally - objective-c

Question

i load image from camera roll, but this image is upside down. so i wrote method to rotate it.
CGImageRef imageRef = [image CGImage];
float width = CGImageGetWidth(imageRef);
float height = CGImageGetHeight(imageRef);
CGColorSpaceRef colorSpace = CGColorSpaceCreateDeviceRGB();
Byte *rawData = malloc(height * width * 4);
Byte bytesPerPixel = 4;
int bytesPerRow = bytesPerPixel * width;
Byte bitsPerComponent = 8;
CGContextRef context = CGBitmapContextCreate(rawData, width, height, bitsPerComponent, bytesPerRow, colorSpace, kCGImageAlphaPremultipliedLast | kCGBitmapByteOrder32Big);
CGColorSpaceRelease(colorSpace);
int byteIndex = 0;
CGContextDrawImage(context, CGRectMake(0, 0, width, height), imageRef);
Byte *rawData2 = malloc(height * width * 4);
for (int i = 0 ; i < width * height ; i++) {
int index = (width * height) * 4;
rawData2[byteIndex + 0] = rawData[index - byteIndex + 0];
rawData2[byteIndex + 1] = rawData[index - byteIndex + 1];
rawData2[byteIndex + 2] = rawData[index - byteIndex + 2];
rawData2[byteIndex + 3] = rawData[index - byteIndex + 3];
byteIndex += 4;
}
CGContextRef ctx = CGBitmapContextCreate(rawData2, CGImageGetWidth( imageRef ), CGImageGetHeight( imageRef ), 8, CGImageGetBytesPerRow( imageRef ), CGImageGetColorSpace( imageRef ),kCGImageAlphaPremultipliedLast );
imageRef = CGBitmapContextCreateImage (ctx);
image = [UIImage imageWithCGImage:imageRef];
CGContextRelease(context);
return image;
it's ok, but now i must flip it horizontally, and i don't know how can i do this. i try to do this second day.
thank you for help

Have you tried this:
imageView.transform = CGAffineTransformMakeScale(-1, 1);
?
You can also do the rotation by using a transformation:
imageView.transform = CGAffineTransformMakeRotation(M_PI);
You can concat the two transformation in one like this:
imageView.transform = CGAffineTransformRotation(CGAffineTransformMakeScale(-1, 1), M_PI);
If you want to make your own UIImage object, rather than manipulating views and transformations, I would still suggest you to use the approach described above to make the view draw the image as you like, then convert your UIView content into an UIImage object:
UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(rect.size);
[imageView.layer renderInContext:UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext()];
UIImage* viewImage = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();
UIGraphicsEndImageContext();
