Search for Dynamically loading image for good examples of how to do this.
Basically, you do not put the image data directly into HTML. Instead, you
make your page.html with some table perhaps, and a series of links to your
images. So you would need one method to list the ids of your images to put
as a parameters into your links. Then, you will 'mount' the resource in
your application class at app init time, which will allow your app to serve
up the image data for each img src=mountpoint?id=123 tag.
Good luck

I want to build a DynamicImageResource which can scale internal (packaged)
images (with name : {index}.gif ) .
In getImageData() , I try to load a truly existing image , but cannot
getResource() , it returns null !
Here is my code :
public class ScaledImageResource extends DynamicImageResource
{
private ThreadLocalInteger index = new ThreadLocalInteger();
private ThreadLocalInteger width = new ThreadLocalInteger();
private ThreadLocalInteger height = new ThreadLocalInteger();
@Override
public IResourceStream getResourceStream()
{
ValueMap map = getParameters();
index .set(map.getAsInteger(index , 1));
width .set(map.getAsInteger(width , 50));
height.set(map.getAsInteger(height, 50));
return super.getResourceStream();
}
@Override
protected byte[] getImageData()
{
ResourceReference imageResource = new ResourceReference(MyPage.class ,
icons/byIndex/+index.get()+.gif);
http://foobar.com/app/resources/foo.bar.MyPage/icons/byIndex/1.gif does
exist !
try
{
System.out.println(imageResource.getResource() = +
imageResource.getResource()); // returns NULL
InputStream is =
imageResource.getResource().getResourceStream().getInputStream();
BufferedImage bufferedImage = ImageIO.read(is);
BufferedImage scaledImage = BufferedImageTools.getImage(bufferedImage,
width.get() , height.get());
byte[] bytes = null;
//scale image , build bytes , skipped here.
return bytes;
}
catch (Exception e)
{
}
return null;
}
}
And in Application's init():
getSharedResources().add(IMG_KEY, new ScaledImageResource());
mountSharedResource(/scaledImage, new
ResourceReference(IMG_KEY).getSharedResourceKey());
Note , the image file does exist there ,
and http://foobar.com/app/resources/foo.bar.MyPage/icons/byIndex/1.gifdoes
browsable !
But why cannot I getResource() of the imageResource ?
