Does anybody know of a way to create an image file, when all i have is the data that needs to be in the image file?
I'm currently working on a script to sort my mp3 files, and i want to store the image, which is written in one of the id3 tags, on my pc. So all i have is the data itself.

I tried using the FileWriter class, but then i get a messed up picture.
Here's waht i have so far (nothing much as you can see):

public static void main(String[] args) {
    try {
        RandomAccessFile raf = new RandomAccessFile(
                new File(
                        "E:\\Muziek - AlbumArts\\Anti-Flag - Live Fat, Die Young.jpg"),
                "r");
        byte[] data = new byte[(int) raf.length()];
        raf.read(data);
        raf.close();
        FileWriter fw = new FileWriter(new File("E:\\test.jpeg"));
        fw.write(new String(data));
        fw.close();
    } catch (Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
} 

Is there a better way (i'm sure of it), and is there a way to store the image without errors?

Thanx in advance,

Use an outputstream:

Code:

        RandomAccessFile raf = new RandomAccessFile( new File("start.jpg"),"r");
        byte[] data = new byte[(int) raf.length()];
        raf.read(data);
        raf.close();
        OutputStream os = new FileOutputStream("result.jpg");
        os.write(data, 0, data.length);
        os.close();

You shouldn't throw away your old code, though. It creates a nice effect

I won't When i use the old code, i feel like Piet Mondriaan: squares and rectangles in different colors

here's an example of Piet Mondriaan: http://www.tamsquare.com/thumbnail/C..._Mondriaan.jpg
