Question

I’m using an image component that has a FromBinary method. Wondering how do I convert my input stream into a byte array

HttpPostedFile file = context.Request.Files[0]; byte[] buffer = new byte[file.ContentLength]; file.InputStream.Read(buffer, 0, file.ContentLength);  ImageElement image = ImageElement.FromBinary(byteArray); 

Answer 1

Use a BinaryReader object to return a byte array from the stream like:

byte[] fileData = null; using (var binaryReader = new BinaryReader(Request.Files[0].InputStream)) {     fileData = binaryReader.ReadBytes(Request.Files[0].ContentLength); }
