Mapping image with Entity Framework

Question

I have an MVC Application that uses Entity Framework to comunicate with database.

I want to get an image that is saved in the DB and load it on screen, but I can't figure out the way to do this.

Thanks in advance.

You probably save the image in the database with a byte array, then you must use System.Drawing.Image class to convert the byte array that came from the DB.

Consider "imageFromDb" as the array from the database.

using (System.Drawing.Image image = System.Drawing.Image.FromStream(new MemoryStream(imageFromDb)))

{
  // Do the job that you want with the image.
}

Wish you Luck :)
