[flexcoders] Re: Embed an image

[Doug Lowder]

One way is to create a JSP page on your server that reads the 
database and streams the content to the servlet output.  In Flex, 
you can then set the mx:Image tag's source property to the URL of 
the JSP page.

HTH,
Doug

[Shannon]

You should just be able to send the content-type:image/jpg header in 
the response (from your servlet/bean) and load it from the url of the 
servlet. No?

Also, if you have retreived the binary data and are looking to push 
that into the Image component (and this is very strange, and maybe 
someone can explain this) but you can also pass a class into the very 
same attribute and it will display the image. Here is a sample 
derived from the Image documentation where you embed an image during 
compile time and use that embedded data in place of the string. 

mx:Script
![CDATA[
[Bindable][Embed(source=theme/filetype/ico_wmrm.png)]public var 
wmrmICO:Class;
]]
/mx:Script
mx:Image source={wmrmICO}/

Hope this is helpful...

[flexcoders] Re: Embed an image for a Sprite

[polestar11]

Ok, I managed to figure out what the problem was from a previous post
- one cannot add a sprite directly to a container, one has to first
add it to a UIComponent type.

Anyone with more info / experience with this?

Cheers
Tracy

 Hi there
 
 How does one attach an image to a sprite class?
 I have tried the following example, but nothing gets displayed on the
 screen:
 
 package 
 {
 import flash.display.Bitmap;
 import flash.display.Sprite;
   
 public class MySprite extends Sprite{
   
 [Embed(source='/assets/board.png')]
 public var MyPhoto:Class;
   
 function MySprite()
 {
  var pic:Bitmap = new MyPhoto();   
  this.addChild(pic);
 }
 }
 }
 
 Thanks 
 Tracy
