Powerpacks DataRepeater Control - Image not getting loaded in picture box - winforms

Question

I have a winform powerpacks datareapter control having a picture box. This is the code snippet from the classes.
DisplaySystemUsersControl.Designer.cs
this.picBoxUserImage.BorderStyle = System.Windows.Forms.BorderStyle.Fixed3D;
this.picBoxUserImage.DataBindings.Add(new System.Windows.Forms.Binding("Image", this.UserBindingSource, "User_Image", true));
this.picBoxUserImage.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(3, 3);
this.picBoxUserImage.Name = "picBoxUserImage";
this.picBoxUserImage.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(100, 93);
this.picBoxUserImage.SizeMode = System.Windows.Forms.PictureBoxSizeMode.StretchImage;
this.picBoxUserImage.TabIndex = 0;
this.picBoxUserImage.TabStop = false;
this.picBoxUserImage.Click += new System.EventHandler(this.picBoxUserImage_Click);
DisplaySystemUsersControl.cs
public DisplaySystemUsersControl()
{
InitializeComponent();
this.dataRepeaterAccounts.DataSource = this.UserBindingSource;
LoadAccountData();
}
private void LoadAccountData()
{
SystemUserBusinessClass oSystemUserBusinessClass = new SystemUserBusinessClass();
List<SystemUserEntity_Only_For_UI_Binding> obj = oSystemUserBusinessClass.GetSystemUsersForUI();
BindingSource tempUserBindingSource = (BindingSource)dataRepeaterAccounts.DataSource;
obj.ForEach(oSystemUserEntity_Only_For_UI_Binding => tempUserBindingSource.Add(oSystemUserEntity_Only_For_UI_Binding));
}
SystemUserEntity_Only_For_UI_Binding.cs
public class SystemUserEntity_Only_For_UI_Binding
{
public string User_Id { get; set; }
public string User_Name { get; set; }
public byte[] User_Image { get; set; }
}
User ID and User name is getting loaded. But Image is not getting loaded. SystemUserEntity_Only_For_UI_Binding.User_Image() is holding the image byte array.
Can anybody please tell me what is going wrong?

Answer 1

Your class should look something like this:
public class SystemUserEntity_Only_For_UI_Binding
{
public string User_Id { get; set; }
public string User_Name { get; set; }
public Image User_Image { get; set; }
}
The byte array needs to be translated into an image somewhere in your code:
using (MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream(imgBytes)) {
this.User_Image = Image.FromStream(ms);
}

public void BindRepeater (DataSet dsObj)
{
pictureBox1.DataBindings.Clear();
pictureBox1.DataBindings.Add("ImageLocation", dt, "Photo");
dataRepeater1.DataSource = dsObj;
}
