C# Load JPG file, extract BitmapImage

bitmap, bitmapimage, c#, image-processing, jpeg

Solution

Try this:

public void Load(string fileName) 
{

    using(Stream BitmapStream = System.IO.File.Open(fileName,System.IO.FileMode.Open ))
    {
         Image img = Image.FromStream(BitmapStream);

         mBitmap=new Bitmap(img);
         //...do whatever
    }
}

Or you can just do this (source):

Bitmap myBmp = Bitmap.FromFile("path here");

Problem

I am trying to extract a BitmapImage from a JPG. This is the code I have: ``` FileStream fIn = new FileStream(sourceFileName, FileMode.Open); // source JPG Bitmap dImg = new Bitmap(fIn); MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream(); dImg.Save(ms, ImageFormat.Jpeg); image = new BitmapImage(); image.BeginInit(); image.StreamSource = new MemoryStream(ms.ToArray()); image.EndInit(); ms.Close(); ``` image comes back with a 0 × 0 image, which of course means it didn't work. How do I do this?
