Using FJCore to encode Silverlight WriteableBitmap

Question

I am trying to find out how to use FJCore to encode a WriteableBitmap to a jpeg. I understand that WriteableBitmap provides the raw pixels but I am not sure how to convert i

Answer 1

Figured it out! I downloaded FJCore from code.google.com and went through the image class. It only expects the RGB bytes. Here is the function that I wrote. I need the base64 version of the image so that's what my function returns.

    private static string GetBase64Jpg(WriteableBitmap bitmap)
    {
        int width = bitmap.PixelWidth;
        int height = bitmap.PixelHeight;
        int bands = 3;
        byte[][,] raster = new byte[bands][,];

        for (int i = 0; i < bands; i++)
        {
            raster[i] = new byte[width, height];    
        }

        for (int row = 0; row < height; row++)
        {
            for (int column = 0; column < width; column++)
            {
                int pixel = bitmap.Pixels[width * row + column];
                raster[0][column, row] = (byte)(pixel >> 16);
                raster[1][column, row] = (byte)(pixel >> 8);
                raster[2][column, row] = (byte)pixel;
            }
        }

        ColorModel model = new ColorModel { colorspace = ColorSpace.RGB };
        FluxJpeg.Core.Image img = new FluxJpeg.Core.Image(model, raster);
        MemoryStream stream = new MemoryStream();
        JpegEncoder encoder = new JpegEncoder(img, 90, stream);
        encoder.Encode();

        stream.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin);
        byte[] binaryData = new Byte[stream.Length];
        long bytesRead = stream.Read(binaryData, 0, (int)stream.Length);

        string base64String =
                System.Convert.ToBase64String(binaryData,
                                              0,
                                              binaryData.Length);

        return base64String;
    }
