Android Question How to take a picture and send it to a server

[Alberto Michelis]

Hi, having a Sqlite table in the phone, I need to take a picture for each record, save it on the phone and when connected, send the records and each picture to a web server.
Any idea of how to do it?

If you can set a FTP server, you could use:

To send the records... it depends on the database you get in your server, but you coudl use jRDC2

this is how i upload images on my webserver

B4A Code

    dim tempImageFile As String = "tempimage.jpg"
    dim image_list as list

    image_list.initialize

    tempfolder = Starter.rp.GetSafeDirDefaultExternal("shared")
 
  
    Dim mp As MultipartFileData
    mp.Initialize
    mp.Dir = tempfolder
    mp.FileName = tempImageFile
    mp.KeyName = "file"
    mp.ContentType = "image/jpg"
    image_list.Initialize
    image_list.Add(mp)

   
    Dim jobupload As HttpJob
    jobupload.Initialize("",Me)
    jobupload.PostMultipart("yourwebsite.com/upload.php",NULL,image_list)
