[iText-questions] Problem with Loading Image using Image.getInstance()

[Vd K]

Hi,

 

I am trying to get an instance of Image object using the following code

 

  Image img = Image.getInstance(buffer);

 

I am reading the contents of an Image file into a byte[] array and passing it as a parameter to the above method in the variable "buffer". It works fine if I use a normal image. Incase my image is corrupt it executes forever at the following line:

 

com.lowagie.text.Image.skip(Unknown Source)

 

Please find below the details of the thread dmp when the above code is executed with a corrupt image

 

 at java.io.ByteArrayInputStream.skip(ByteArrayInputStream.java:189)
 - waiting to lock <0x9ef85b30> (a java.io.ByteArrayInputStream)
 at com.lowagie.text.Image.skip(Unknown Source)
 at com.lowagie.text.Jpeg.processParameters(Unknown Source)
 at com.lowagie.text.Jpeg.<init>(Unknown Source)
 at com.lowagie.text.Image.getInstance(Unknown Source)

 

Is there any way we can ientify the image is corrupt before invoking the "getInstance()" method?  Any help is appreciated.

 

Thanks

Deepak
