A generic error occurred in GDI+问题对应~

Bitmap.save(): A generic error occurred in GDI+ Try the following code You will get the above mentioned error:A generic error occurred in GDI+.

Dim  oBitmap  As  Bitmap        
oBitmap  =   New  Bitmap( " c:/example.jpg " )        
Dim  oGraphic  As  Graphics    
oGraphic  =  Graphics.FromImage(oBitmap)    
Dim  oBrush  As   New  SolidBrush(Color.Black)        
Dim  ofont  As   New  Font( " Arial " ,  8 )        
oGraphic.DrawString( " Some text to write " , ofont, oBrush,  10 ,  10 )        
oBitmap.Save( " c:/example.jpg " ,ImageFormat.Jpeg)    
oBitmap.Dispose()    
oGraphic.Dispose()

       This problem occurs because until the bitmap object is disposed, it creates a lock on the underlying image file. So you can save the newly generated file with different name but not overwrite the file because of lock. Now suppose you want to overwrite the file then create another bitmap from old bitmap. dispose the object of old bitmap, process new bitmap object and save the new bitmap object with original file name. The above chunk of code should be written in the following way.

 

Dim  oBitmap  As  Bitmap oBitmap  =   New  Bitmap( " c:/example.jpg " ) 
Dim  oGraphic  As  Graphics 
'  Here create a new bitmap object of the same height and width of the image. 
Dim  bmpNew  As  Bitmap  =   New  Bitmap(oBitmap.Width, oBitmap.Height) 
oGraphic  =  Graphics.FromImage(bmpNew) 
oGraphic.DrawImage(oBitmap,  New  Rectangle( 0 ,  0 , _ bmpNew.Width, bmpNew.Height),  0 ,  0 , oBitmap.Width, _ oBitmap.Height, GraphicsUnit.Pixel) 
'  Release the lock on the image file. Of course, 
'  image from the image file is existing in Graphics object 
oBitmap.Dispose() 
oBitmap  =  bmpNew 
Dim  oBrush  As   New  SolidBrush(Color.Black) 
Dim  ofont  As   New  Font( " Arial " ,  8 ) 
oGraphic.DrawString( " Some text to write " , ofont, oBrush,  10 ,  10 ) 
oGraphic.Dispose() 
ofont.Dispose() 
oBrush.Dispose() 
oBitmap.Save( " c:/example.jpg " , ImageFormat.Jpeg) 
oBitmap.Dispose()
