C# - Need to pull BLOB and write to JPG file
Posted by: Steve Link

Hi,
I have found C# code that indicates it will pull out a LONGBLOB image and write it to a JPG file. From a logical standpoint this works but it does not create a usable JPG file that can be opened in MSPaint. I can go through HeidiSQL, right-click, and Save BLOB to file to produce a 40k jpg. The C# code produces a 70k jpg for the same image. The code is shown below. Can someone help?
**** code ****
static void Main(string[] args)
{
List<string> linearr = new List<string> { };
string[,] classarr;
int counter = 0;
int x;
string line;
string[] splitln = new string[12];
string inscommand = "";
MySqlConnection conn = new MySqlConnection("SERVER=;Database=;UID=;PASSWORD=");
conn.Open();
Console.WriteLine("Connected to database, importing classexport.txt file");
byte[] fs;
string fnm;
string inppic;
using (MySqlCommand cmd = new MySqlCommand("select Email,ImageFile from employeedirectory;", conn))
{
using (MySqlDataReader reader = cmd.ExecuteReader())
{
while (reader.Read())
{
fnm = reader.GetString(0).Substring(0,reader.GetString(0).IndexOf("@"));
if (reader.GetValue(1).ToString() != "")
{
UTF8Encoding enc = new UTF8Encoding();
fs = enc.GetBytes(reader.GetString(1).ToCharArray());
inppic = Convert.ToBase64String(fs);
fs = enc.GetBytes(inppic);
Console.WriteLine(fnm);
File.WriteAllBytes(@"F:\mysql_data\OUPics\" + fnm + ".jpg", fs);
}
}
}
}
conn.Close();
Console.WriteLine("process finished");
}
