How to draw HiDPI image resources as BufferedImage?

[Tobias Bley]

Hi,

Loading and drawing an HiDPI image resource (@2x) works with JDK8 very good 
(Image image = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage("/dir/image.ext“)). But how 
to load a HiDPI image and convert it to a HiDPI buffered image? Is it possible 
without creating a double sized BufferedImage and and than draw it via 
Graphics2D and scale 0.5?

Best regards,
Tobi
