画像をバイナリフィールドに保存するのはどうですか? Base64でエンコードするよりも理にかなっています:
void SaveImage(byte[] image)
{
using (var conn = new MySqlConnection(ConnectionString))
using (var cmd = conn.CreateCommand())
{
cmd.CommandText = "INSERT INTO pictures (Product, Manufacturer, Description, Price, Image) VALUES ('New_Product', 'New_Manufacturer', 'New_Description', '0', ?Image)";
cmd.Parameters.Add("?Image", image);
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
}
}
byte[] GetImage(string product)
{
using (var conn = new MySqlConnection(ConnectionString))
using (var cmd = conn.CreateCommand())
{
cmd.CommandText = "SELECT Image FROM pictures WHERE Product = ?product";
cmd.Parameters.Add("?product", product);
using (var reader = cmd.ExecuteReader())
{
if (!reader.Read())
{
return null;
}
const int CHUNK_SIZE = 2 * 1024;
byte[] buffer = new byte[CHUNK_SIZE];
long bytesRead;
long fieldOffset = 0;
using (var stream = new MemoryStream())
{
while ((bytesRead = reader.GetBytes(reader.GetOrdinal("Image"), fieldOffset, buffer, 0, buffer.Length)) > 0)
{
stream.Write(buffer, 0, (int)bytesRead);
fieldOffset += bytesRead;
}
return stream.ToArray();
}
}
}
}
そして:
using (var ms = new MemoryStream())
{
pictureBox1.Image.Save(ms, System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Jpeg);
SaveImage(ms.ToArray());
}
取得する場合:
byte[] image = GetImage("New_Product");
MemoryStream stream = new MemoryStream(image);
pictureBox2.Image = Image.FromStream(ms);
