How to display an image embedded into an XLM datasource ?

miaou_

Hi everybody,
first of all, I apologize for my poor english level ^^

I am trying to display an image (png in my example) which is base64-encoded into the xml datasource.

As you may see in the attachment sample, I cannot see my image into the output html result (nor into the other formats too). cf. attachment birt_preview.png, the second column is my xml image, the third one contains the same image embedded into the rptdesign

Can anybody look at my sample and show me any mistakes I made ?
Thanks a lot to take time to answer me.

notes :
* I am using birt rcp version 2.5.0 / jdk : 1.5.0.
* you probably have to modify the xml file path into the dataSource xmlDataSrc. it must point to the downloaded embeddedXmlImage.xml.
* The code used to decode the base64-encoded data is

importClass(Packages.org.apache.commons.codec.binary.Base64);
Base64.decodeBase64(row["ImageData"]);

You have to put the commons-codec-1.4.jar in your path to make it work (or into birt_rcp_install_dir/plugins, it will work too).

Hi miaou,

I've tried several different things with no success so far. What code was used to encode the image data?
