Question

How to create a java.awt.Image from image data? Image data is not pure RGB pixel data but encoded in jpeg/png format.

JavaME has a simple api Image.createImage(…) for doing this.

public static Image createImage(byte[] imageData,                                 int imageOffset,                                 int imageLength) 

imageData – the array of image data in a supported image format.

Is there anything similar to this available in JavaSE?

import java.awt.*;  Toolkit toolkit = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit();  Image image = toolkit.createImage(imageData,imageOffset,imageLength);
