Convert ByteArrayOutputStream to BufferedImage

I have a ByteArrayOutputStream I have created using the QRGen Qr code generation library, and I want to turn it into a BufferedImage object and present it in an ImageView in Android. How may that be achieved?

Solution

  • Convert the ByteArrayOutputStream to Byte array

    byte[] data = baos.toByteArray(); //baos is your ByteArrayOutputStream object

    them create a bitmap out of it using the BitmapFactory

    Bitmap bmp = BitmapFactory.decodeByteArray (data,0,data.length, null);

    them take your ImageView and set its bitmap

    imageView.setImageBitmap(bmp);
