How to load an image from isolated storage into image control on windows phone?

Question

I am using this code for storing the image into isolate storage at the time of camera action completed.

void camera_Completed(object sender, PhotoResult e)
{
    BitmapImage objImage = new BitmapImage();
    //objImage.SetSource(e.ChosenPhoto);
    //Own_Image.Source = objImage;
    using (var isolatedStorage = IsolatedStorageFile.GetUserStoreForApplication())
    {
        fnam = e.OriginalFileName.Substring(93);
        MessageBox.Show(fnam);
        if (isolatedStorage.FileExists(fnam))
            isolatedStorage.DeleteFile(fnam);

        IsolatedStorageFileStream fileStream = isolatedStorage.CreateFile(fnam);
        BitmapImage bitmap = new BitmapImage();
        bitmap.SetSource(e.ChosenPhoto);

        WriteableBitmap wb = new WriteableBitmap(bitmap);
        wb.SaveJpeg(fileStream, wb.PixelWidth, wb.PixelHeight, 100, 100);
        MessageBox.Show("File Created");
        fileStream.Close();
    }
}

Now I want to take the image from isolated storage and display it in my image control.

Is it possible?

Answer 1

Yes it is. You can use this function to load image from IsolatedStorage:

private static BitmapImage GetImageFromIsolatedStorage(string imageName)
{
    var bimg = new BitmapImage();
    using (var iso = IsolatedStorageFile.GetUserStoreForApplication())
    {
        using (var stream = iso.OpenFile(imageName, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read))
        {
            bimg.SetSource(stream);
        }
    }
    return bimg;
}

Usage:

ImageControl.Source = GetImageFromIsolatedStorage(fnam);

Answer 2

Something like this:

public BitmapImage LoadImageFromIsolatedStorage(string path) {
  var isf = IsolatedStorageFile.GetUserStoreForApplication();
  using (var fs = isf.OpenFile(path, System.IO.FileMode.Open)) {
    var image = new BitmapImage();
    image.SetSource(fs);
    return image;
  }
}

In your code

image1.Source = LoadImageFromIsolatedStorage("image.jpg");
