StringToImage |
util.StringToImage |
This actor takes a StringToken containing the raw data representing
an image in a standard format (for instance JPEG or PNG) and produces
an ImageToken containing that image.
Bug: Maybe we should rename it "ImageDataToImageToken," or is that
too much of a mouthfull?
Bug: Since java is smart about character encodings, it might get
creative with the whole "getBytes" call. We really want the raw
bytes that were used to construct the string in the first place,
without any kind of translation. I'm not sure how to accomplish this.
I wonder if StringTokens should carry around information about their
encoding? I guess String's probably do that already. Or something.
