Create Image or Bitmap in console application - can't seem to find System.Drawing?
bitmap, c#, console-application
Solution
You have to add Reference to the system.Drawing.Dll in your project.
Right click on Project, add reference and find System.Drawing.DLL and add reference.
EDIT: You will find it under Assemblies->Framework->System.Drawing
Problem
I'm trying to create an image or bitmap from a camera bitstream that I will be (hopefully) passing to the browser via a websocket. The application I'm building is a console app as I didn't think there would be a need for this app to have a GUI. Now I'm having trouble creating/accessing Image and Bitmap classes - System.Drawing doesn't seem to exist and I'm not sure why. When I try `using System.Drawing` I get the error `The type or namespace name 'Drawing' does not exist in the namespace 'System' (are you missing an assembly reference?)` What's the best way to create a bitmap in a console application, and is there a reason I seem to be unable to load System.Drawing? Code: ``` private void Kinect_ColorFrameReady(object sender, ColorImageFrameReadyEventArgs e) { using (ColorImageFrame frame = e.OpenColorImageFrame()) { if (frame != null) { byte[] pixelData = new byte[frame.PixelDataLength]; frame.CopyPixelDataTo(pixelData); //how do we create a bitmap here and pass it off to chrome? } } } ```
