Conversion of BitmapImage to Byte array

Question

I want to convert a BitmapImage to ByteArray in a Windows Phone 7 Application. So I tried this but it throws the runtime Exception \"Invalid Pointer Exception\". Can anyone

Answer 1

I had same problem, this solves it:

Code before:

BitmapImage bi = new BitmapImage();
bi.SetSource(e.ChosenPhoto);
WriteableBitmap wb = new WriteableBitmap(bi);

Code after:

BitmapImage bi = new BitmapImage();
bi.CreateOptions = BitmapCreateOptions.None;
bi.SetSource(e.ChosenPhoto);
WriteableBitmap wb = new WriteableBitmap(bi);
