capturing changed image and storing as an image data type column in SQL database

[Bill Anderson]

How do I capture the changed image during the ImageChanged event and process it to an image file for uploading and storing as an image column in the SQL database ??

I've tried to capture args.image in the ImageChanged event and save it as an image field, i.e. as Byte()... but I keep getting an error that I cannot convert args.Image to a System.Drawing.Image ?????

Thanks in advance.

I played around with it yesterday myself and came up with the attached code, using  args.image.image as my changed image source along with some older code   It seemed to work OK as well. 

 

 

 

Protected Sub RadImageEditor1_ImageChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal args As Telerik.Web.UI.ImageEditorEventArgs) Handles RadImageEditor1.ImageChanged

 

 

 

Dim imgData() As Byte = ImageToByte(args.Image.Image)

 

Session(

 

"imgDataByte") = imgData

 

 

 

End Sub

 

 

 

Public Shared Function ImageToByte(ByVal img As Image) As Byte()

 

 

 

Dim imgStream As MemoryStream = New MemoryStream()

 

img.Save(imgStream, System.Drawing.Imaging.

 

ImageFormat.Png)

 

imgStream.Close()

 

 

Dim byteArray As Byte() = imgStream.ToArray()

 

imgStream.Dispose()

 

 

Return byteArray

 

 

 

End Function
