Image path with the Nokia phone Camera Gallery problem working fine with the simulato

[k.rajanireddy]

Hi ,

I am trying to send photos from the Nokia N8 phone. When I send from simulator I able to send the photos. But when I try to send from phone ( Symbian) it says the image is empty. I tried the following path to retrieve the images.

For Example:

//My image path is
QString imagePath = "E:\Images\Camera\201103\201103A0\03092011124.jpg"
QImage image(imagePath);
if (image.size().isEmpty())
{
qDebug()<< "~~~~Qimage is empty";

}

I am getting Qimage is empty.

But If I run with simulator by changing the paths according to the system then I am able to send the same image.
For Example:

QString ImagePath = "C:\Users\zubin\Desktop\RajaniWorkingArea\Mosonex\Camera\201012\201012A003092011124.jpg";
QImage image(imagePath);
if (image.size().isEmpty())
{
qDebug()<< "~~~~Qimage is empty";

}

Successfully I am sending the image.

Any help on this is appreciated.

Thanks,
Rajani.

Your code seems to be Qt, so the thread is moved to the Qt boards.
I do not know Qt, but those single backslashes are suspicious, and also the absolute path on your hard drive (at least in case of Symbian emulators, there is a private file system, in epoc32\winscw\c as C: drive).

Hi Wizard,

Thanks for the reply. Can you please send me exact path for the private file system. Because I do not see epoc32/winscw/c.

In Qt, don't use "\" for a path separator, except for certain special cases. Use "/" instead.

If you do use "\" you must double them up to "\\".

Thank you all,

I figured out the problem. I am using QImageReader before I use QImage in symbian.
Example:

QString imagePath = "E:\Images\Camera\201103\201103A0\03092011124.jpg";
QImageReader image_reader(imagePath);
if ( image_reader.size().isNull()){
qDebug()<< "!!!image_reader is null";
}
QImage image = image_reader.read();
if (image.size().isEmpty())
{
qDebug()<< "~~~~Qimage is empty";

}

QByteArray imageToSend;
QBuffer* buf = new QBuffer(&imageToSend);
buf->open(QBuffer::ReadWrite);
image.save(buf, "JPEG");
if (buf->size()==0)
{
qDebug()<< "!!!!Buffer is empty";
}
if (imageToSend.size()==0)
{
qDebug()<< "----image to Send is empty";
}
