You asked for it, and SpiceLogic made it. ASP.NET BLOB and Thumbnail Control for Web Forms
You are an ASP.NET Developer and you are very much fond of binary data, you realized that, keeping your images and other files in the SQL Server (or any database) BLOB type field is very much organizing. Yes, thats right. But when you needed to render your binary data directly from the SQL Server (or any database) BLOB type field to your ASP.NET page, you got headache. You needed to write many lines of codes to create an ASHX handler file and then, called that handler from your image control's source property. Its fine when you got only one instance of the image to display. What about if you need to show many images something like using DataGridView. Also when you need to provide your user a hyperlink so that when the hyperlink is clicked, the file download prompt should appear and the file content should be the content from your databse's BLOB field, you got headache. You thought, why there is no Control same like Image Control with a property of type byte[] so that you could directly bind that BLOB field of your database to the byte[] property of that control!
The answer is YES, There is a control for your purposes. SpiceLogic BLOB & Thumbnail Control. (http://www.spicelogic.com/Products/ShowDetails.aspx?productID=ASPNETBLOBnFILEControl). This control not only fulfills your image rendering desire, but also it gives you many more features and options. You can show the image as thumbnails; you can directly upload files to the byte[] property where a file uploader is just built in. You can also instruct this control to upload the image and resize it upon uploading. Guess what! You can display hyperlink to prompt File Download where the file content directly comes from the byte[] property (or BLOB field of the database). Like any other standard image button control, this control supports postback events like Click, Command, FileUploading, FileUploaded etc.
It is a set of ASP.NET server controls for developing SQL BLOB & Thumbnail related web applications in the most efficient, organized and object oriented manner without requiring you writing any codes or ashx http handler files.
Web Application Development is significantly simplified by using its enhanced design time User Interface, which lets you do all major tasks in a completely codeless manner. You can simply bind the byte[] BlobData property of this control to your VarBinary or any byte[] datatype of your DataSource and place this control in your DataBound Container Control like GridView or DetailsView. Your DataSource varbinary field Image will be displayed in your browser as you wish.
Are you an eCommerce developer ? Then, you would need this control to create programmable File Download link where the file comes from a secret location. Once you get paid for your your digital content, you would like to give your customer a link to download the file which cannot be shared, right? Simply use it's Hyperlink part and set byte[] property with your File Content. Thats it.
