Uploading Image to the server using webservice

first of all reach to the gallery of the phone using the intent.


Button btnBrowse = (Button)findViewById(R.id.btn_browse);
        btnBrowse.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent intent = new Intent();
                intent.setType("image/*");
                intent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);
                startActivityForResult(Intent.createChooser(intent,
                "Select Picture"), SELECT_PICTURE);

}
});


Now onActivityResult should be like this.





public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
   if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
       if (requestCode == SELECT_PICTURE) {
           Uri selectedImageUri = data.getData();
           selectedImagePath = getPath(selectedImageUri);
           EditText imageBrowse = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.thumb_url);
           imageBrowse.setText(selectedImagePath);
           byte[] strBytes = convertToBytes(selectedImagePath);
           
           imageBytes = strBytes;
       }
   }
}
    


    public byte[] convertToBytes(String selectedImagePath)
    {
    try
    {
    FileInputStream fs = new FileInputStream(selectedImagePath);

    Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(fs);
   
    ByteArrayOutputStream bOutput = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
   
    bitmap.compress(CompressFormat.JPEG,1, bOutput);
   
    byte[] dataImage = bOutput.toByteArray();
   
    return dataImage;
    }
    catch(NullPointerException ex)
    {
    ex.printStackTrace();
    return null;
    } 
    catch (FileNotFoundException e)
    {  
e.printStackTrace();
return null;
}
   
    }


public String getPath(Uri uri) {
   String[] projection = { MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA };
   Cursor cursor = managedQuery(uri, projection, null, null, null);
   int column_index = cursor
           .getColumnIndexOrThrow(MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA);
   cursor.moveToFirst();
   return cursor.getString(column_index);
}




Using this bytes you'll get the image uploaded to the web service and store the image on to the server.
