Web and WebWorks Development

final_image_blob = blackberry.utils.stringToBlob(data,"BASE64");
fileDir = "file:///store/home/user/camera";
//blackberry.io.dir.createNewDir(fileDir);
try {
blackberry.io.file.saveFile(fileDir + "/test.jpeg", final_image_blob);
} catch (e) {
alert('e.message = ' + e.message);
}

This shall do it for you

In WebWorks for the java smartphone, it looks like the base64 encoding works by decoding the Base64 (opposite of the TabletOS version).

You need to save it as a binary file if you are going to use it in other applications.

Have you tried converting the base64 content with another base64 converter to compare the results?

Hi,

Thanks for the code, i already solved.

This "request.overrideMimeType("text/plain; charset=x-user-defined");" download the image as binary then convert the responseText to base64 and use stringToBlob.

Finally just one more question... i´d saved small images but when i try to save a 213kb or 404kb image...doesn't work does anybody know why??

Is this supposed to work for jpeg files as well?  I could get it to work for .png files but not .jpg files

ie:

var currentImgData = currentCanvas.toDataURL("file/jpeg");
currentImgData = currentImgData.replace('data:image/jpeg;base64,', '');
var currentBlobData = blackberry.utils.stringToBlob(currentImgData, 'binary');
