Why the Bitmap is always null, from image byte array?



I have a problem and can not solve in my application. The application performs operations on images like PNG, the image is convert in a byte array , then a piece from this array of bytes is performed on bitwise operations , the problem is the new series of new bitmap format byte is always null. I just do not understand why the new bitmap, from new array byte, is always null and not know how to fix it this bug.







// GetByte method from Image



private byte[] getByteImageData(String filePath) {

/*

Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(filePath);

Bitmap mutable = bitmap.copy(Bitmap.Config.RGB_565, true);

ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();

mutable.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.PNG, 100, baos);



return baos.toByteArray();

*/





byte[] _imagebytedata = new byte[1024];

InputStream _input = null;



try {

if (filePath != null && (filePath.length() > 0)) {



// Create a file for image

File _fileimage = new File(filePath);



if (_fileimage.exists()) {



// Get the byte from file image

_input = new BufferedInputStream(new FileInputStream(

_fileimage));

_imagebytedata = new byte[(int) _fileimage.length()];

_input.read(_imagebytedata, 0, (int) _fileimage.length());

_input.close();

}

}

} catch (Exception e) {



}



// Bitwise operations



private byte[] Text(byte[] imagedata, byte[] textmess, int offset) {





for (int i = 0; i < textmess.length; ++i) {

int add = textmess[i];



for (int bit = 7; bit >= 0; --bit, ++offset) {

int b = (add >>> bit) & 1;

imagedata[offset] = (byte) ((imagedata[offset] & 0xFE) |b);

}

}

return imagedata;

}



//Save image from new byte array



private boolean saveImage(String pathFile,byte[] encodedimage) {



OutputStream _output = null;

File _newFileImage = new File(pathFile);

byte[] _encodedimage = encodedimage;

//Bitmap _imagebitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeByteArray(encodedimage, 0, encodedimage.length);



if (_newFileImage.exists()) {

try {



_output = new BufferedOutputStream(new FileOutputStream(

_newFileImage));

_output.write(_encodedimage, 0, _encodedimage.length);

_output.flush();

_output.close();

return true;



} catch (Exception e) {

}

;



}// _newFileImage.exists()

return false;

}





public boolean encodeTextInFile(String filepath, String text) {



byte[] _newimagebytedata;

byte[] _imagebytedata = getByteImageData(filepath);

byte[] _textbytedata = text.getBytes();

byte[] _lengthbytedata = byteConversion(text.length());



Bitmap _bitmapunu = BitmapFactory.decodeByteArray(_imagebytedata, 0, _imagebytedata.length);

_newimagebytedata = Text(_imagebytedata, _lengthbytedata, 33);

Bitmap _bitmapdoi = BitmapFactory.decodeByteArray(_newimagebytedata, 0, _newimagebytedata.length);

// The value of variable _bitmapdoi is null

_newimagebytedata = Text(_imagebytedata, _textbytedata, 65);



return saveImage(filepath, _newimagebytedata);

}

  1. It looks as if you are trying to encode a text message in the lower bits of the image (if I understand your code correctly). I actually used this as a christmas card for fellow geeks this year.

    However, when you create Text you encode the text into the byte[] of the image file thus probably destroying the image (unless you are very lucky). You probably want your addition of the text bytes to be on the decoded image (Bitmap _bitmapunu).

    The javadoc for Bitmap.decodeByteArray says that it will return null if the image can not be decoded.

    This is what you need to do:


    Read the image bytes from the file, say fileArray.
    Decode the fileArray into actual pixels, imageArray
    Manipulate the pixels in imageArray
    Encode the pixels into a image format again (such as png), say newFileArray.
    Store the newFileArray to a file.


    What you seem to be doing is trying to manipulate the bytes in fileArray directly, thus breaking the file format and making it impossible to decode the bytes into pixels.

div not scrolling properly with slimScroll plugin

I am using the slimScroll plugin for jQuery by Piotr Rochala Which is a great plugin for nice scrollbars on most browsers but I am stuck because I am using it for a chat box and whenever the user appends new text to the boxit does scroll using the .scrollTop() method however the plugin's scrollbar doesnt scroll with it and when the user wants to look though the chat history it will start scrolling from near the top. I have made a quick demo of my situation http://jsfiddle.net/DY9CT/2/ Does anyone know how to solve this problem?

Why does this javascript based printing cause Safari to refresh the page?

The page I am working on has a javascript function executed to print parts of the page. For some reason, printing in Safari, causes the window to somehow update. I say somehow, because it does not really refresh as in reload the page, but rather it starts the "rendering" of the page from start, i.e. scroll to top, flash animations start from 0, and so forth. The effect is reproduced by this fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/fYmnB/ Clicking the print button and finishing or cancelling a print in Safari causes the screen to "go white" for a sec, which in my real website manifests itself as something "like" a reload. While running print button with, let's say, Firefox, just opens and closes the print dialogue without affecting the fiddle page in any way. Is there something with my way of calling the browsers print method that causes this, or how can it be explained - and preferably, avoided? P.S.: On my real site the same occurs with Chrome. In the ex
