How to create byte array from HttpPostedFile

Question

I\'m using an image component that has a FromBinary method. Wondering how do I convert my input stream into a byte array

HttpPostedFile file = context.Reques         


        

Answer 1

Use a BinaryReader object to return a byte array from the stream like:

byte[] fileData = null;
using (var binaryReader = new BinaryReader(Request.Files[0].InputStream))
{
    fileData = binaryReader.ReadBytes(Request.Files[0].ContentLength);
}
