Convert AWT image to SWT image [message #435094] Thu, 22 April 2004 21:07 Go to next message

Hi,

I have seen tips on converting SWT image to AWT image, but still don't
know how to do the reverse conversion.

One way I can think of is to encode a SWT image as a JPEG and then
decode the ByteArry into a SWT ImageData. How can I do it better?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Joseph,

if your AWT image is a BufferedImage, you can extract the RGB values of the
pixels into an array of int, by using public int [] getRGB(.....)
Then you create a new ImageData having the same dimensions and a direct
color model, and with a simple loop you can copy the pixel values from the
array of int to the ImageData.

I have just written an article explaining how to do this. The article will
be published on IBM developerWorks. Unfortunately it is still in review and
it may take a couple of weeks before it is public.

any chance of a snippet until the article comes out?

This works for me:

private static Image makeSWTImage(Display display, java.awt.Image ai)
throws Exception
{
int width = ai.getWidth(null);
int height = ai.getHeight(null);
BufferedImage bufferedImage =
new BufferedImage(width, height, BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB);
Graphics2D g2d = bufferedImage.createGraphics();
g2d.drawImage(ai, 0, 0, null);
g2d.dispose();
int[] data =
((DataBufferInt)bufferedImage.getData().getDataBuffer())
.getData();
ImageData imageData =
new ImageData(width, height, 24,
new PaletteData(0xFF0000, 0x00FF00, 0x0000FF));
imageData.setPixels(0, 0, data.length, data, 0);
Image swtImage = new Image(display, imageData);
return swtImage;
}

Unfortunately it's quite slow because the image data has to be copied
instead of sharing a buffer between SWT and AWT. The latter would
require native code. Even without a shared buffer, loading a (JPEG)
image with AWT and converting it to a SWT image is faster than loading
it directly with SWT :-/
