Getting image from input stream

Hi,
I'm using the following code in a midlet to get an image from a inputstream from a servlet.
is = hc.openDataInputStream();
ByteArrayOutputStream bStrm = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
int d;
while ((d = is.read()) != -1)
bStrm.write(d);
byte imageData[] = bStrm.toByteArray();
im = Image.createImage(imageData, 0, imageData.length);
ImageItem ii = new ImageItem(null, im, ImageItem.LAYOUT_DEFAULT, null);
if (viewMap.size() != 0)
viewMap.set(0, ii);
else
viewMap.append(ii);
a problem occurs at
im = Image.createImage(imageData, 0, imageData.length);
and a 'exception java/lang/IllegalArgumentException'
is generated. The inputstream is definitely not null.
Can anyone see what I am doing wrong or recommend any alternative approaches?
Thanks

hi ,
wouldn't "getResourceAsStream()" work here?

Reading an image from input stream

Hello all,
I'm familiar with setting up an input stream but I have never actually done it. I'm making a connection to a URL (a JPG image). I would like to read the JPG from the URL using an input stream. With the URL class I was able to open a stream, however, I'm not exactly sure how to read from it.
I'm aware of the read() method and read(byte[]) methods of inputstream. But how do I actually implement it?
If I use read(), then bytes come in individually... do I need to combine them at one point? If I read the bytes into an array, how do I determine what size to set the array and how do I convert the byte array into an Image or ImageIcon?
Please advise.

Hi,
See http://java.sun.com/products/jdk/1.2/docs/guide/2d/api-jpeg/
and especially JPEGCodec.createJPEGDecoder(java.io.InputStream).
Anyway, you might not want to do it with InputStream. Instead you could try something like this:
URLConnection con = // get it somehow
Image i = (Image) con.getContent(new Class[] {Image.class});
However, If you still want to use the InputStream, here you go with some pseudo code:
InputStream in = // get the input stream with JPEG data...
JPEGImageDecoder dec = JPEGCodec.createJPEGDecoder(in);
Image i = dec.decodeAsBufferedImage();
You can get the InputStream from the URLConnection with getInputStream(). However, I don't remember if the InputStream contained also the HTTP (or what ever protocol the URL specifies) headers. If it contains the headers, then you must rip them of before giving the InputStream to the JPEGCodec...
If this is the case, try calling the URLConnection.getHeaderFields() method before getInputStream. This might not work though.

Problem reading image from input Stream

I'm having a problem reading an image through an input stream. It gives me the error
Premature end of JPEG file
sun.awt.image.ImageFormatException: JPEG datastream contains no imageand my code looks like
public Image getImage(String name, String command){
          if(command.equals(pCode)){
               Image image=null;
               System.out.println(name);
               InputStream is = getClass().getResourceAsStream(name);
               BufferedInputStream bis = new BufferedInputStream(is);
                byte[] byBuf =new byte[10000];
                 try {
                    int byteRead = bis.read(byBuf,0,10000);
               } catch (IOException e) {
                    // TODO Auto-generated catch block
                    e.printStackTrace();
                 image = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().createImage(byBuf);
               return image;
          return null;
     }And the string name looks when printed is: usr/images/PRLogo.jpg

If the image is bigger than 10K, this code will break.
You can pass an InputStream to javax.imageio.ImageIO.read. That's probably an easier option than trying to do the buffering yourself.

Rich text box used in Infopath Form not displaying option to get images from Computer

Hello,
We have used "Rich text box" in Infopath Form which is not displaying option to get images from Computer.
Options available are : From Address, From SharePoint
But if we Rich text box in list, then it works fine with "From Computer" option.
can you please help me out to get this option.
Thanks in advance.
REgards,
Jayashri

Hi,
From your description, there is no “From Computer” option to get images with rich text box in InfoPath form.
Per my knowledge, by design there are “From Address” and “From SharePoint” options without “From Computer” option in rich text box in InfoPath form. As a workaround, you can develop a custom InfoPath Rich Text box to do it.
About developing a custom InfoPath control, I suggest you create a new thread on the forum “Visual Studio Tools for Office”, more experts will assist you with InfoPath development.

Reading data from input stream on unix

I have a program that reads data from input stream from the socket. If the data is over 1500 bytes it is sent in multiple TCP packets. Whats weird is, if I run the program in windows environment it waits till it receives all the packets but when I run the same program in unix environment it only reads the first packet and go further without waiting for all the TCP packets!!
The line that reads from input stream is
datalen = inStr.read(byteBuffer);is there anyway I can make it wait till it receives all the packets on unix system? I do not understand why it works fine for windows in this case but not for unix.
I'll appreciate any help..
Thanks

How do I get images from Aperture into print shop for mac?

Friends,
I have Print Shop for Mac and Aperture. How do I get images from Aperture into Print Shop? I'musing managed images with previews. Is there any option besides exporting to the desktop and importing?
Thanks!
Steve

if you have previews turned on in Aperture and they're all genereated, you can simply drag-n-drop them into any application (just about). drag-n-drop is essentially the same as copy/paste as long as the application is setup to accept "drops" onto its windows.
otherwise, if you're running Leopard (10.5) as your version of Mac OS X, when you import (or whatever it is in PrintShop), you should get a file selection dialog. from here, scroll down the left-hand side bar set of icons. near the bottom is a group called "Media". click on the triangle to open the group, choose Photos, and from here you should see an Aperture icon. click this and you'll see your whole library (or at least the portion of it that you have previews generated for. select the photo you want and viola!

Get Images from URL's with slight difference?

Does anyone know how I can download an image referenced in a web page? Get Image URLS from webpage doesn't work, because it is referenced in an unusual way:
<input type="image" name="theImage" src="http://www.mysite.co.uk.uk/myservlets/myServlet?reqtype=IMG&refresh=184949485733" align="bottom" border="0" WIDTH="400" HEIGHT="400">
Prior to fetching the image urls, I download the web page from a link, it downloads as html, is there a way to download it as a web archive which might bring the image down as well?
Rob

If you're using Firefox, here's something else to try...
While the web page containing images is open, click on *Tools > Page Info* (or press ⌘I). Click the Media tab and look for a list of image urls in the upper portion of the window. Select any or all of the image urls. Once highlighted, press the *Save As* button in the lower right side of the *Page Info* window. Choose a destination folder and press Open. Image files should be downloaded to the chosen folder.
Unfortunately, however, during testing (in Firefox 3.6.13), I found that while this method worked fine with some sites, it didn't work so well with others -- Google Images, e.g., would not allow images to be saved. If you encounter similar trouble, you might try setting up and using the workflow below.
First, create a dedicated download folder, with a name such as "*Firefox Images*." This is important because the workflow's actions will eventually filter out all but the image files in the selected folder -- and its subfolders -- and send any non-image files to the trash. Naturally you'd want to be certain your workflow is acting upon the correct folder, or risk losing essential files elsewhere.
+Use these actions:+
1) *Get Selected Finder Items*
2) *Get Folder Contents* -- check "Repeat for each subfolder found"
3) *Filter Finder Items* -- filter out non-images:
Whose: File Type - *Is not* - TIFF Image File -- click the "+" button and add to the list:
Whose: File Type - *Is not* - JPEG Image File -- click "+" and continue adding:
Whose: File Type - *Is not* - JPEG 2000 Image File
Whose: File Type - *Is not* - PICT Image File
Whose: File Type - *Is not* - GIF Image File
Whose: File Type - *Is not* - PNG Image File
Whose: File Type - *Is not* - BMP Image File
4) *Move to Trash*
5) *Get Selected Finder Items*
6) *Get Folder Contents* -- leave "Repeat for each subfolder found" unchecked
7) *Filter Finder Items* -- remove the accompanying HTML file from the downloaded items:
Whose: File Type - Is - HTML File
8) *Move to Trash*
From Automator's File menu choose *Save As > File Format: Application*. The saved applet will be used as a droplet.
Firefox web pages to be processed should be saved directly to the newly created "*Firefox Images*" folder. Choose *Save As: Web Page, complete*. Saved web pages can be acted upon individually, or you can fill the Firefox Images folder with multiple saved pages before running the workflow. (How many would be too many to act upon before the workflow fails, however, is unknown; I tested the workflow on only a half dozen or so saved pages at a time).
To run the workflow, simply drag and drop the Firefox Images folder onto the saved Automator applet's file icon and allow the workflow to complete.
Good luck, hope this helps.

Loading an image from a stream

Hello,
I am trying to load several images into the database from a
ZipInputStream.
When I use the the loadDataFromInputStream method the first
image loads properly. But when I try to extract the next zipped
file from the stream I get an error saying the stream has been
closed.
Has anyone else had this problem? No of any fixes?
I am going to write the zipped images out the filesystem and
then reload them but that seems like a big waste of time and
resources.
Help please,
Abel Rauch

The current implementation of loadDataFromInputStream() closes
the InputStream after the content gets loaded.
You may have to write a CustomInputStream class which extends
from the ZipInputStream. Then override the close() method to do
nothing or call getNextEntry(). You should be able to use this
CustomInputStream in loadDataFromInputStream().

Get image from Excel as shape and Save as .jpg

Hello,
I'm fairly new to ActiveX and am having a hard time doing a seemingly simple thing: getting a named image from an Excel file and saving it as a .jpg. I have seen similar things done for Excel chart objects, but as I understand it images are "shapes" in Excel and I've been unable to find the right method to extract a shape. Please, if anyone could take a look at the attached folder and tell me if I am on the right track, if there is a better way to do this, or if there is a way to do this at all, it would be helpful. Note that I don't care how efficient a strategy is developed - if I need to save to an intermediate file of another type, that's fine. The only goal is to be able to extract this image and save it with one mouse-click and no manual intervention.
Folder contains: 1 example Excel file containing the image named "Picture 1"; 1 vi showing the method I've found for exporting Excel charts as .jpg's; and 1 vi with the progress I have made so far trying to pick the image from the Excel file and save it as a .jpg.
Thanks in advance!

Get Images from jar. getResource() not working

I've read some of the posts in the forum and I've tried the solutions but still cant get the images in my program.
I'll write all the things I've tried (All of them works fine when I run them from bluej):
1- The code used in the jar files in demo folder of jdk:
/** Inside the main class: */
private static ResourceBundle resources;
    static {
        try {
            resources = ResourceBundle.getBundle("resources.Recursos", Locale.getDefault());
        } catch (MissingResourceException mre) {
            JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(new JFrame(), "ResourceBundle not found","Error",JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);
            System.exit(1);
public String getResourceString(String nm)
        String str;
        try {
            str = resources.getString(nm);
              } catch (MissingResourceException mre) {
            str = null;
        return str;
    public URL getResource(String key)
        String name = getResourceString(key);
        if (name != null)
            URL url = getClass().getResource(name); // Here is the exception
            return url;
        return null;
    public ImageIcon loadImage(String image_name)
        URL image_url = null;
        try
            image_url = getResource(image_name);
            if (image_url != null)
                return new ImageIcon(image_url);
            else
            return null;
        }catch(Exception e)
            JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(new JFrame(), e.getMessage() + "In load Image","Error",JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);
            return null;
/** Inside the constructor */
abrirButton = new JButton(loadImage("open"));
}//End of the class}
The ResourceBundle is a file named: Recursos.properties and it's in a folder inside the folder of my *.class and *.java And have this information:
Title=Recursos
ElementTreeFrameTitle=Elements
ViewportBackingStore=false
open=resources/open24.gif
save=resources/saveAs24.gif
cut=resources/cut24.gif
copy=resources/copy24.gif
paste=resources/paste24.gif
analisis=resources/bean24.gif
This one, runs with the jar, but the images are not in the buttons and I get the Dialog message telling me that there was an error in loadImage. Check that method. I used this dialogs to track the error and the exception it's generated by:
URL url = getClass().getResource(name);
in public URL getResource(String key) method.
2- I also tried to follow the instructions of this article that describes how to get resources from jars:
http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-07-1998/jw-07-jar-p2.html
This is the first page of the article:
http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-07-1998/jw-07-jar.html
And I did something like this:
/** Inside constructor */
abrirButton = new JButton(new ImageIcon(getImageFromJAR("Imagenes/open24.gif")));
/** Inside of my main class */
public Image getImageFromJAR(String fileName)
           try{
           if( fileName == null ) return null;
           Image image = null;
           Toolkit toolkit = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit();
            image = toolkit.getImage( getClass().getResource(fileName) );
            return image;
            }catch(Exception exc){
                JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(new JFrame(), "Exception loading the image","Error",JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);
                return null;
...The images in this one are in the folder Imagenes inside the folder of my *.class and *.java
This one work fine in bluej too, but the jar... It doesn't even start.
3- And the last one.
abrirButton = new JButton(new ImageIcon(getClass().getResource("Imagenes/open24.gif"));Works fine in bluej, not running in jar.
Am I doing something wrong? Please somebody help me.
thanks in advance

Are you putting the image files inside the jar? If you are, then use "jar tf jarfile.jar" to display the contents of the jar and make sure the files are there and inside the right directory. If you are not, then you can not use getClass().getResource() from a jar file because it will look inside the jar file.
If you are getting an error message, please post it.

Getting images from the web

When I copy an image from the web and paste it in AI the URL is inserted and not the image. How do I change that?

I understand the rights issue and I am complying to any rights issue. The issue that I am having is at home I can copy and paste an image in to AI from the web but at work I cannot do the same thing. It is an extra step that I am not use to. I know it is some sort of setting I just cannot find.
For example, if you look up "tigers" on Google, take the first image of tiger and paste it in AI are you able to do it?
When I do this I get the below text instead of the image:
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/17/Tiger_in_Ranthambhore.jpg
Any help will be greatly appreciated, I use a ton of images from my factories that I need to use for my job.
