Android Question Encode bitmap to Base64 string.

[Rega]

Hi,

I'm trying to encode a bitmap to Base64 string.
Does anyone have a good answer how it's done?

Public Sub ConvertImageToStrong(objImage As Bitmap) As String

Dim arrBitmap() As Byte
Dim strBitmap As String

strBitmap = ......
Return strBitmap

End Sub

I can't use Base64Image lib, since I have to convert from bitmap in memory and not from file.
I could use Base64 library, but must then convert bitmap to byte array. Can find method for this.

Thank you in advance.

I think that you can save your bitmap on a temporary file, then use Base64Image library, and then delete the temporary file

Hello and thanks for your answer.
It will be my temporary work arround.
I was hoping to avoid doing this.

Because i also need it for my current project: the next version of my MFLib will include a Base64 encoding function with bitmap object as parameter. No need to save it as file. In the next few days (at the latest on the next weekend) it will be ready.

This is great news, looking forward to the new version.

New MFLib v1.07 is online, with base64 conversions.
