Loading Images from XML

[anerling]

Hello Community,

I have a question about loading images from a XML data. The images are encoded in base64. Is there any possibility loading that images by the reportgenerator ? The problem is the StiMvcMobileViewer.GetReportSnapshotResult raises an exception because it could not convert the base64 string into an System.Drawing.Image.
Do you have an idea solving that problem ?

Yours sincerely

What type is used for this column?
Here is a description from the XML Scheme of our Demo XML data:

Code: Select all

<xs:element name="Picture" type="xs:base64Binary" minOccurs="0" />

Thank you.

My XML Scheme contains base64 as string:

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" standalone="yes"?>
<Report> 
   <ImageList Quantity="2"> 
      <Image Content="/9j/4AAQSkZJRg"/>
      <Image Content="/9j/4AAQSkZJRg"/>
   </ImageList>
</Report>

Code: Select all

<xs:attribute name="image" type="xs:string" />

Hello.

The type should be type="xs:base64Binary".
Our you should change the Type of the Column in Dictionary to byte[].

Thank you.

I forgot to delete the path of the xsd in the template.
Thank you for your help.
