I want to convert image into byte[] and send it through servlet.
I have converted image to byte[] but send it to client ??
protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
throws ServletException, IOException {
String name=request.getParameter("name");
File f = new File("/Users/shilu/MyProject/Chat/Photo/" + name);
byte[] data = Files.readAllBytes(f.toPath());
//What to do now??
}
It depends on the type of image as you need to specify the content type that matches with your image type.
So here assuming that you want to send a png, the code could be something like this:
// Set the media type matching with my image
response.setContentType("image/png");
// Write the data
try (OutputStream out = response.getOutputStream()) {
out.write(data);
}
flush() is unnecessary though, as the implicit close() will also perform a flush.
OutputStream doesn't specify any behaviour. However FilterOutputStream which is essentially the superclass of all custom OutputStreams does flush on close and state that it does so. I wouldn't bother writing overcareful code in cases like these, but YMMV.
