I know how to render a normal UIView to a bitmap image:

UIGraphicsBeginImageContextWithOptions(view.bounds.size, NO, 0.0);
[view.layer renderInContext:UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext()];
UIImage *bitmapImage = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();
UIGraphicsEndImageContext();

The problem is that if view is a UIImageView with a stretched resizable image returned from resizableImageWithCapInsets:, bitmapImage gotten this way is the original image — the un-stretched one — instead of the really displayed stretched image. I can easily tell that by the size difference between bitmapImage and view. So my question is how to render the full content displayed by a UIImageView whose image is a stretched resizable image?

    I’m an idiot! The code is perfectly working. I just messed up something somewhere else. The stupid thing is that I put the code in a method of my UIView category but I named the method image. It works perfectly for general UIViews, but as UIImageView has its own image method and UIImageView is a subclass of UIView, UIImageView‘s image method is called when I tried to get my bitmap image.
