How to check if image object is the same as one from resource?

Question

So I\'m trying to create a simple program that just change the picture in a picture box when it\'s clicked. I\'m using just two pictures at the moment so my code for the pic

Answer 1

Maybe this code can be a bit large, but works just fine with me, try it:

This is the requeriment:

using System.Drawing;
using System.Drawing.Imaging;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
using System.Collections;

And here is the code to compare:

        // Your Images
        Image img1 = pictureBox1.Image;
        Image img2 = pictureBox2.Image;

        // Now set as bitmap
        Bitmap bmp1 = new Bitmap(img1);
        Bitmap bmp2 = new Bitmap(img2);

        // here will be stored the bitmap data
        byte[] byt1 = null;
        byte[] byt2 = null;

        // Get data of bmp1
        var bitmapData = bmp1.LockBits(new Rectangle(0, 0, bmp1.Width, bmp1.Height), System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageLockMode.ReadOnly, bmp1.PixelFormat);
        var length = bitmapData.Stride * bitmapData.Height;
        //
        byt1 = new byte[length];
        //
        Marshal.Copy(bitmapData.Scan0, byt1, 0, length);
        bmp1.UnlockBits(bitmapData);

        // Get data of bmp2
        var bitmapData2 = bmp2.LockBits(new Rectangle(0, 0, bmp2.Width, bmp2.Height), System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageLockMode.ReadOnly, bmp2.PixelFormat);
        var length2 = bitmapData2.Stride * bitmapData2.Height;
        //
        byt2 = new byte[length2];
        //
        Marshal.Copy(bitmapData2.Scan0, byt2, 0, length2);
        bmp2.UnlockBits(bitmapData2);

        // And now compares these arrays
        if (StructuralComparisons.StructuralEqualityComparer.Equals(byt1, byt2))
        {
            MessageBox.Show("Is Equal");
        }
        else
        {
            MessageBox.Show("Isn`t equal");
        }

this code compares each byte image to generate the result. may have other easier ways.
