Android Question WriteToStream problem

[rossati]

Hi
Wy this code doens't works?

    Dim fileTypeMap As Map = CreateMap("png":"PNG","jpg":"JPEG")
    Dim fileType As String = "png"
    If jpg.Checked Then fileType = "jpg"
    Dim Out As OutputStream = File.OpenOutput(File.DirDefaultExternal,fileName.Text & "." & fileType, False)    ' for possibly save image
    cnvs.Bitmap.WriteToStream(Out, 100, fileTypeMap.Get(fileType)) ' cnvs.Bitmap.WriteToStream(Out, 100, "JPEG")

My be I must cast a string to As android.graphics.Bitmap.CompressFormat?
Regards

Do you get any Error?
Where did you close the Stream?

 

[rossati]

There is the close of stream; error is on WriteToStream, indeed this works:

cnvs.Bitmap.WriteToStream(Out, 100, "JPEG")

Below the error

[Erel]

You must explicitly cast the object returned from the map to a string:

Dim CompressionType As String = fileTypeMap.Get(fileType)
cnvs.Bitmap.WriteToStream(Out, 100, CompressionType)

It happens because WriteToStream expects a special type of parameter (enum).
