I have been hitting my head against a wall on this one.
In my Android App, I select an image. That all seems to be working fine. I then convert it to a byte array and HTTP POST it to a server. The data written to file on the server side does not appear to be what the data started as.
When checking things end-to-end it seems that the file on my device is 1,066,896 bytes. The data on the server is 14,745,600 bytes.
Code from Selecting the Image:
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
switch (requestCode) {
case PICK_IMAGE: {
if (resultCode != RESULT_OK)
return;
Uri selectedImage = data.getData();
try {
Bitmap bitmap = MediaStore.Images.Media.getBitmap(this.getContentResolver(), selectedImage);
MainActivityFragment fragment = (MainActivityFragment)Fragments.Get("Main");
new SendPic().execute(bitmap);
} catch (IOException exception) {
Log.e(TAG, "Could not load image", exception);
}
break;
}
}
}
If I check bitmap.getByteCount() in the above code, it will report 14,745,600, which makes me relatively confident that the data being sent to the server is good. But I can't figure out while the data read in is 14x larger than what I show on the device. It I take this same bitmap though, and apply it to an ImageView, the image looks just fine.
SendPic is a simple class that extends AsyncTask. No magic there.
public static String SendHttpImage(String path, Bitmap bitmap, String name, String filename) {
String attachmentName = "bitmap";
String attachmentFileName = "bitmap.bmp";
String crlf = "\r\n";
String twoHyphens = "--";
String boundary = "******";
try {
String url = "http://server.com/index.php?" + path;
URL u = new URL(url);
HttpURLConnection urlConnection = (HttpURLConnection)u.openConnection();
urlConnection.setUseCaches(false);
urlConnection.setDoOutput(true);
urlConnection.setRequestMethod("POST");
urlConnection.setRequestProperty("Connection", "Keep-Alive");
urlConnection.setRequestProperty("Cache-Control", "no-cache");
urlConnection.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "multipart/form-data;boundary=" + boundary);
DataOutputStream request = new DataOutputStream(urlConnection.getOutputStream());
request.writeBytes(twoHyphens + boundary + crlf);
request.writeBytes("Content-Disposition: form-data; name=\"" + attachmentName + "\";filename=\"" + attachmentFileName + "\"" + crlf);
request.writeBytes(crlf);
int bytes = bitmap.getByteCount();
ByteBuffer buffer = ByteBuffer.allocate(bytes);
bitmap.copyPixelsToBuffer(buffer);
byte[] pixels = buffer.array();
request.write(pixels);
request.writeBytes(crlf);
request.writeBytes(twoHyphens + boundary + twoHyphens + crlf);
request.flush();
request.close();
InputStream responseStream = new BufferedInputStream(urlConnection.getInputStream());
BufferedReader responseStreamReader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(responseStream));
String line = "";
StringBuilder stringBuilder = new StringBuilder();
while ((line = responseStreamReader.readLine()) != null) {
stringBuilder.append(line).append("\n");
}
responseStreamReader.close();
String response = stringBuilder.toString();
urlConnection.disconnect();
return response;
} catch (IOException exception) {
Log.e (TAG, "HTTP Post failed", exception);
return null;
}
}
Thank you for your help with this!
