How to retrieve BinaryCode from SQL Server to PictureBox












1















I have a database on my private host, which contains a column for inserting pictures. I completely converted my picture from PictureBox to Binary code and when I go to the database, I can see the binary codes properly. I also programmed a function for converting binary codes to image, and set an event handler for user to click on a cell in DataGridView and all of the values will be displayed on the specific controls.



First I got an error and that error was something like this :




Cannot convert from object to byte




I solved this problem by programming a function and convert object binary to byte, but now, when I try to convert byte (binary array) to image, I face an error and I cannot solve this problem. and problem is :




Parameter is invalid.




Here is my code:



Converting Image to Binary



byte ConvertImageToBinary(Image img)
{
using (MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream())
{
img.Save(ms, System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Jpeg);
return ms.ToArray();
}
}


Convert Object to Binary



byte ObjectToByteArray(object obj)
{
if (obj == null)
return null;

BinaryFormatter bf = new BinaryFormatter();

using (MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream())
{
bf.Serialize(ms, obj);
return ms.ToArray();
}
}


Convert Binary to Image



Image ConvertBinaryToImage(byte data)
{
using (MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream(data))
{
return Image.FromStream(ms);
}
}


And at last, here is my code in



private void DataCustomer_CellContentClick(object sender, DataGridViewCellEventArgs e):

if (DataCustomer.CurrentRow.Cells[9].Value == null)
PictureCustomer.Image = null;
else
{
byte ImageByte = ObjectToByteArray(DataCustomer.CurrentRow.Cells[9].Value);
PictureCustomer.Image = ConvertBinaryToImage(ImageByte);
}


Any helpful suggestion would be appreciate.



Thanks in advance

  • the BinaryFormatter does something completely different. it will take the .NET properties of whatever object it is told to serialize, and not the raw image stream. what is really stored in DataCustomer.CurrentRow.Cells[9].Value?

  • You have a MemoryStream in a using block. You should return (Image)Image.FromStream(ms).Clone();. The MemoryStream is being disposed

  • @dlatikay DataCustomer.CurrentRow.Cells[9].Value this stored Binary data which I converted from image to binary. and I'm trying to retrieve that binary and convert it to image.

  • @Jimi I did what you've said, but nothing has changed. I still have that problem.

  • get rid of that BinaryFormatter. make sure the picture is stored as byte. could you show the code where you assign that value to the gridview's cell? is it databound to a db table?
