Saving Images to disk

Question

I'm going to be making some graph Images, and I'm curious about saving them to disk. I've considered using Quicktime for Java, because quicktime supports so many image types and I need this versatility. The main problem is that, either way, I don't know how to save an Image to a file.
Any pointers would be much appreciated: websites, sample code using QTJava for saving images, etc.

Answer 1

Hi Xander
I think u want to convert the image ( which u draw as graph)into gif or jpge formate for this purpose u can use ACME
Gif/jpge encoder it is free ware (and it is writen in pure java)for converting image into gif/jpg formate and u can save it into ur hard disk
U can down the encode from www.acme.com
and use for encoding the image
just down lodad the packae and put that package in the current directory and import the package as
import Acme.JPM.Encoders.*;
in ur class where u encode the image
and for encoding the image here is the sample code
FileOutputStream out= null;
try{
File fc=new File("gif/" + "testgif"+".gif");
fc.createNewFile();
out = new FileOutputStream(fc);
}catch(IOException e){System.out.println("Gif Directory not Found");}
try{
GifEncoder encoder = new GifEncoder(image,out,true);
encoder.encode();
} catch(IOException e){System.out.println("File can't be created");}
I think this will help u
