Cannot load image from applicationStorageDirectory

Hi!
At program startup I load binary data of images from a remote server and save them locally in my applicationStorageDirectory:
imageFile = new File(File.applicationStorageDirectory.nativePath);
imageFile = imageFile.resolvePath("images/" + obj.id + extension);
var filestream:FileStream = new FileStream();
filestream.open(imageFile, FileMode.WRITE);
filestream.writeBytes(loader.data);
filestream.close();
later, when I need the image for display reasons, I try to load them from my applicationStorageDirectory:
file = new File(File.applicationStorageDirectory.nativePath);
file = file.resolvePath("images/" + obj.id + extension);
image.load(new URLRequest(file.nativePath));
I made an output with both urls and they are identical. Nonetheless the image fails to load with error #2035.
In the desktop version of this application I store images in and load them from the applicationDirectory. This works fine!
Can anybody help?
Judith

I found the solution myself. If I want to load a file from the applicationStorageDirectory I must not reference it with file.nativePath but file.url !

Cannot load image from computer - freezes @ 50% each time

Can someone help with this problem. I have saved it and come back to it. Have tried to upload different images from my saved files on the computer.
No luck. Each time I try, it jumps to 50% loading and never loads anthing - this is using the Forms Central in Adobe.
Thanks.

Hey I see this is an older post, but I am having the same issue. I am using the desktop app Fromscentral and I am trying to insert an image, a very small image, and I have tried both tiff and jpg versons of it, just a small logo that is like 10K file size and only ablut an inch in size, and it is stopping t 50% downloaded, exactly as the user above described. I am using MacOS 10.8.4 and an up-to-date Firefox browser and jsut recently acquired the full creative suite.
Also, Josh one little thing that would be VERY helpful for new users is that when you want to open and continue editing a form you have already begun, in the Acrobat Pro open/creat menus, the main strating place, it should have an option for not just create form but 'Open My Forms". It was very frustrating earlier not to know how to get to a form I had already spent a lot of time on. When youa re in formscentral it appears you have no control over where the form document itself (pre-pdf) is being saved. Acrobat (or rather, formscentral) doesn't tell you that. Is it only being saved online int he cloud? This should not be happening. I was told specifically when I purchased the suite that even though it is called 'cloud' you can save all files you creat locally. It is a big probelm if that is false and misleading, both for the work I want to do and for the trustworthiness of your company and its reputation.
Maybe I am wrong and just don't know the software well enough yet, but it already seems like the interface and lack of transparency in where and how it saves things is designed to bully one into 'upgrading' to be able to do more with forms. I expected to at least be able to do everything I could do in version 9 and to do so at least as easily. I don't mind a learning curve, but I don't like that I can't hit 'save as' when I am working with form creation and know exactly where it is and open it directly. That's alsways been one of the GOOD things about Adobe - they haven't fallen into the Microsoft software crap - excuse me, TRAP - of trying to figure out for you what they think you will want to do with the software in every instance including save and storage controls. Perception is reality, so if there is marketing/sales as the impetus for how this is structured now, Adobe is shooting itself in the foot. That's not how it got to where it is. Just my 2 cents, in addition to my question buried back up top.

Cannot load images from URL, but ok from file?

Hi people,
In the followint simple code (I'm eventually placing these into a media tracker), when I'm debugging on my local PC, the images load no problem, but when I deploy to the web they do not. The rest of the application carries on regardless however. I'm wondering if this is a sufficiently generic method of getting media resources. http://www.thermoteknix.com/93266898/VirtualVisIR_Main.htm (its a simulation of one of our new infrared cameras). I cannot get it to load media, unless its from my hard-drive of course!
Does anyone know what I should do instead?
URL Url = Parent.getDocumentBase ();
VisIRBackground     = Parent.getImage ( Base, "images/rear view.jpg" );
VisIRThermoIcon     = Parent.getImage ( Base, "images/redonion.gif" );
VisIRIndigoIcon     = Parent.getImage ( Base, "images/indigo.gif" );


Ok, just in case is isn't anything to do with paths, here is my loop to load all of my images (which have been created with getImage (x,y)):
Is this technically correct? I've added the images to the media tracker with an incrementing ID, so we have 1 ID per item, starting at zero.
for ( nImagesLoaded = 0; nImagesLoaded < nImagesToLoad; nImagesLoaded++ )
     try {
          VisIRMediaTracker.waitForID ( nImagesLoaded );
          bFailed = VisIRMediaTracker.isErrorID ( nImagesLoaded );
          if ( bFailed )
               break;
     catch ( InterruptedException e ) {
          System.err.println( e.toString () + new Integer ( nImagesLoaded ).toString () );
}

Load image from SQL database with ASP?

Hello,
Does anyone know a tutorial where you can load an image from
a SQL database ?
I would like to show this image in Flash, but i don't know
how to load in from a SQL database using ASP.
Regards,
Micheal

Flash cannot load images from an SQL database.
Flash can load JPEG, PNG, GIF, SWF, MP3, and FLV files.
An SQL database can be used to store the file names and their
location. ASP can retrieve that data from the SQL and return to
Flash to load the above file formats.
For Flash to do the communication with ASP you need to
determine if you are using URL Encoded or XML data structures.
For URL Encoded data you look at
LoadVars.sendAndLoad
For XML Encoded data you look at
XML.sendAndLoad
Then in their onLoad methods you use
MovieClip.loadMovie
to load JPEG, GIF, PNG and SWF;
Sound.loadSound
for MP3,
NetConnection.connect,
Video.attachVideo and NetStream.play for FLV.
For the ASP side the work with the database has nothing to do
with Flash other than using any search variable sent from Flash
with LoadVars.sendAndLoad or XML.sendAndLoad. In other words it
could be an HTML form sending the same variable and calling the
same ASP script. Same with returning values except with Flash only
URL Encoded or XML data structures are sent back and not
HTML.

How do you load images from a Win7 machine to iPhone?

Hi. How do you load images from a Windows 7 PC to an iPhone 4? I'd like to load the pictures to use as wallpapers. Thanks.

You CANNOT transfer photos from your computer to your iPhone when connected to your computer as an external drive. This is for transferring photos and/or video from your iPhone's Camera Roll to your computer's hard drive ONLY.
To transfer photos from your computer's hard drive to your iPhone, this is selected under the Photo's tab for your iPhone's sync preferences with iTunes followed by a sync.

Cannot load image

Hi,
I'm trying to add the logo to the marketing document's PLD. Added the image sucessfully in the server. When trying to load the image in the client, nothing happens. Tried to add the image under the option print preference. got the error message as "cannot load image". Please forward your solutions to fix the issue.
Thanks & Regards
Murugappan.T

Hi Dear,
You can add image on the PLD as follows.
1) Add one Picture Field on the Report
2) Paste the Image file into the Bitmap Folder on the server
3) Click on Content-->then Browse.then select that image file from server
4) then after that you can set the properties from Format tab.
You need not set the Image file from the every client machine,
PLD setting were loaded into the database.i.e.PLD is Database specific not user specific.
Hope this will help you...

Cannot load pictures from Fuji F10 digital camera onto OSX 10.5.2

I cannot load pictures from my fuji F10 digital camera. The Fuji support site does not appear to have any firmware that would allow compatibility between the two but was wondering if anyone has any ideas. I can't even bring them over using a zip drive because I get an error stating that the files are corrupt. any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Chuck

What brand of camera do you have? Perhaps you might take it up with the manufacturer, after all, they are the ones who decide whether to support mounting on the OS X Desktop.
Given the amount of pictures I take, constantly taking my card in and out of the camera puts wear and tear on it,
Using a USB Card Reader is a much better and safer way to transfer your photos:
1. Less risk of your images being lost if your camera shuts down during transfer.
2. It saves the battery on your camera
3. It saves wear and tear on your camera ports - and replacing a worn USB port on a camera is somewhat more expensive than replacing a camera card - and what "wear and tear" is there on a card?
4. It’s almost always faster.

Using Firefox to access facebook chat Button or online friiend chat button generates a Black screen with CANNOT LOAD IMAGES and no chat window opens.

This does not happen in other browsers and it happens on a variety of computers I have access to and would seem to be a common problem but I can find no identical cases in my searches of
Firefox , Facebook or windows help or Google search. My home machine is only a P2 with WINXPCORP but works fine and I have done all updates but still have this continuing problem every time I try to use Firefox
to access Facebook chat but it does not happen with IE or chrome
The response to clicking on chat button or friend chat is a black screen with small center square box with blue title bar that says
'' VIEW IMAGE FULL SCREEN - (42) FACEBOOK X""
center of box is ""! "" mark in yellow triangle and wording
"" CANNOT LOAD IMAGES ''' OK
clicking on OK returns to facebook page but no chat opens.

Loader will load images from another server, but then we get error on Bitmap operation

I'm developing an app that currently is using Loader to get images from another server. This shouldn't currently work since we are still waiting for the owner of that server to put a crossdomain file in place. However, it does work -- sort of .
Loader can load the images fine, without an error. But then the app has a feature in which we are making a larger duplicate of the image to display in a sidebar, we do this in this manner:
var myBitmap:Bitmap = Bitmap(loader.content);
and when this runs we get a Flash player security error 2122, sandbox violation.
So while I'm hoping all this will fix itself when the crossdomain.xml file is put in place, I'm confused as to why we only get the sandbox error when we make a Bitmap from the image, and not when we initially try to retrieve the image.
(Incidentally: is there a better way to make a "copy" of an image loaded by a Loader, and then change its width and height for simultaneous display in another part of the stage? I don't need to change its actual dimensions -- I just need to change its display width and height.)
Thanks!

The sandbox allows viewing, not editing from another server without a crossdomain.
So, when you try to load it up, it loads it, but "read-only" and gives you an error when you try to "edit" it by making a new Bitmap out of it.
This should resolve itself once that crossdomain is in place.
||EDIT||
I just realized I should clarify my statement a little more.
When you load images from another server without a crossdomain, it allows the load for display only. When you try to load data, it will fail. This is because, XML data, or some other type of data is editable by default, and images are only viewable by default. So, the image fails when you try to convert it into an editable form.

What is the proper way to load images from css in Java 8?
Ref
How to load images from css file in JavaFX 8 - Stack Overflow

There is nothing special to do - you execute the statement from your program just like any other SQL statement. The only thing to be aware of are the privilege/permission issues:
When loading from a file on a client computer:
READ CLIENT FILE privilege is also required for the database user.
Read privileges are required on the directory being read from.
The allow_read_client_file database option must be enabled.
The read_client_file secure feature must be enabled.
Revoking these privileges is also the only way you can prevent a user from executing the statement.

Problem loading images from a return value of a function

hello, I write because I uin problem in loading images from a return value of a function.
I created a database with a field "image" of type string, where I put the physical address of the image. I have written like this: {__DIR__ }foto.jpg
Place the code, so you understand better
function imageViewImage(): javafx.scene.image.Image {
connetti();
lass.forName(driverName);
con = DriverManager.getConnection(url,user,"");
stmt = con.createStatement();
var richiesta:String = "SELECT image from viaggio WHERE id_viaggio=7";
rs1 = stmt.executeQuery(richiesta);
var result :String;
rs1.next();
risultato = rs1.getString("image");
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, result);
var imagez = Image{
url:"{result}";
return imagez;
The image is in the source code package
First I connect to the database, run the query and I take the contents of the image.
Can anyone help me?
Is right to put in the database {__DIR__} foto.jpg or do I put only foto.jpg?

Hello unkus_nob,
I would rather suggest you to save only filename of that image like "foto.jpg" in database. And just concat it with the String variable containing "{__DIR__}".
Actually the javafx compiler converts the {__DIR__} to the existing class directory path something like : "jar:file:/..../".
var currentDir ="{__DIR__}";
risultato = "{currentDir}{rs1.getString("immagine"})";
var image = Image{
url:risultato
return image;--NARAYAN G.

Load image from a cursor .cur file.

Hi all,
I want to create a customized cursor, and I have a Microsoft cursor .CUR file. Can I load this .cur file as an image? - Thank you
Edited by: trangkd on Aug 9, 2011 3:08 PM

Hi,
I've been google-ing up-and-down, but couldn't find any implementation of .cur and Java. If anyone has done so, please post... I was looking for an easy way i.e. couple lines of code to load image from a .cur file .. like we do with gif or jpeg out of the box. The JIMI has an extensive support of many other formats, and it will be an alternative if the graphics department won't give us a new set of cursor images in gif/jpg format.
Thanks so much.

Problem loading image from jar file referenced by jar file

First, I searched this one and no, I didn't find an answer. Loading images from jar files has been pretty much done to death but my problem is different. Please read on.
I have my application, a straight up executable running from Eclipse. It uses a jar file, call it JarA. JarA launches a GUI that is located in another jar file. Call it JarB. To recap:
My application calls JarA -> JarA loads classes from JarB -> JarB looks for images to place in a GUI it wants to show on the screen
When JarB goes to load an image the following happens:
java.lang.NullPointerException
     at sun.misc.URLClassPath$3.run(URLClassPath.java:316)
     at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method)
     at sun.misc.URLClassPath.getLoader(URLClassPath.java:313)
     at sun.misc.URLClassPath.getLoader(URLClassPath.java:290)
     at sun.misc.URLClassPath.findResource(URLClassPath.java:141)
     at java.net.URLClassLoader$2.run(URLClassLoader.java:362)
     at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method)
     at java.net.URLClassLoader.findResource(URLClassLoader.java:359)
     at java.lang.ClassLoader.getResource(ClassLoader.java:977)
     at org.cubrc.gmshell.gui.MainWin.preInit(MainWin.java:152)
     at org.cubrc.gmshell.gui.MainWin.<init>(MainWin.java:135)
The code from JarB that loads the image looks like this:
          URL[] oSearch = {Main.class.getResource("images/")};
          URLClassLoader oLoader = new URLClassLoader(oSearch);
          imgIcon = new ImageIcon(oLoader.getResource("icon.gif"));
          imgMatchRunning = new ImageIcon(oLoader.getResource("gears.gif"));
          imgMatchStill = new ImageIcon(oLoader.getResource("gears-still.gif"));
          imgMagnify = new ImageIcon(oLoader.getResource("magnify.gif"));This looks right to me and JarB certainly has an images directory with those files. But I'm in hell right now because I don't know where to place the images to make this work or if you can even attempt to load images with a dependency chain like this.
Any help very appreciated!

Have you tried to move your image-files out of the jar file and place them in the sam folder as the jar-file? I think that would help.
When you try to load the image-file you get the NullPointerException because the program tries to read a file it can't find. Remember that a jar file IS a file and not a directory.
If you want to read somthing inside the jar-file you need to encode it first.
Have you tried to read the jar-file with winRar. It makes it easy to add and remove files in your jar-file.

Load XML from applicationStorageDirectory

Hi all,
I want my app to check the applicationStorageDirectory for an xml file and add an empty one if it is not there. Once this is done I want to load that xml file and work with in the app.
I am trying to use the following method:
private function getLocalQuizDirectoryXML():void
                    var localQuizDir:File = File.applicationStorageDirectory.resolvePath("quizDir.xml");
                    if(!localQuizDir.exists)
                         var fileStream:FileStream = new FileStream();
                         fileStream.open(localQuizDir, FileMode.WRITE);
                         fileStream.writeUTFBytes('<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><directory></directory>');
                         fileStream.close();
                    var s:FileStream = new FileStream();
                    s.open(localQuizDir, FileMode.READ);
                    localXML = new XML(s.readUTFBytes(s.bytesAvailable));
                    trace(localXML);
The first chunk works and the file is created if it does not exist and the xml is good. In the second chunk, if I trace s.readUTFBytes(s.bytesAvailable) I get the string I wrote in before but when I try to turn that to xml (as in the example) I get nothing. I have also tried using a Loader with the nativePath property in the URLRequest but that just throws an IOError.
Does anyone know how I can load XML from applicationStorageDirectory in to my app so that it is an XML Object rather than a String?
Thankyou kindly

Doh!
I was being incredibly stupid
My method works fine but the XML I am writing is empty so of course it traces nothing!

Cheers
