Image Statement

Format
Image image_name;
Description
The Image statement creates an Image with the name image_name. The Image name must be unique and must contain only letters, numbers, or the underscore character. The name must begin with a letter. You can declare Image objects globally in PROC GLOBAL or locally in functions or procedures.
Variable Modifiers
The following variable modifiers apply to Image objects:
  • persistent: to persist the variable's value from one run of an application to another.
Example
Image roof_photo;

if roof_photo.takePhoto("Take a photo of the household's roof.") then

   
// in case the device's camera takes photos with an unnecessarily
    // large resolution, resample the image to a more reasonable size
    roof_photo.resample(maxWidth := 1600, maxHeight := 1200);

   
// save the image using the household key...
    string base_filename = Path.concat(application, "Roof Photos", key(HH_DICT));

   
// ...with 90 quality to prevent the JPEG from being too large
    roof_photo.save(base_filename + ".jpg", quality := 90);

endif;
