Hi,
Im loading an image from a SQL CE db and then trying to load that into a PictureBox.
I am saving the image like this:
if (ofd.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)
{
picArtwork.ImageLocation = ofd.FileName;
using (System.IO.FileStream fs = new System.IO.FileStream(ofd.FileName, System.IO.FileMode.Open))
{
byte[] imageAsBytes = new byte[fs.Length];
fs.Read(imageAsBytes, 0, imageAsBytes.Length);
thisItem.Artwork = imageAsBytes;
fs.Close();
}
}
and then saving to the Db using LINQ To SQL.
I load the image back like so:
using (FileStream fs = new FileStream(@"C:\Temp\img.jpg", FileMode.CreateNew ,FileAccess.Write ))
{
byte[] img = (byte[])encoding.GetBytes(ThisFilm.Artwork.ToString());
fs.Write(img, 0, img.Length);
}
but am getting an OutOfMemoryException. I have read that this is a slight red herring and that there is probably something wrong with the filetype, but i cant figure what.
Any ideas?
Thanks
picArtwork.Image = System.Drawing.Bitmap.FromFile(@"C:\Temp\img.jpg");
