ASP Response.BinaryWrite in Python

[Sam Sungshik Kong]

Hello!

I'm writing ASP in Python.
I want to return an image stream from my ASP code
so that it will look like
<img src="image.asp">.

The problem is that Response.BinaryWrite only accepts SafeArray of Bytes as
parameter, if I understand it correctly.
How can I do it?

The example will be like this.

Response.Expires = 0
Response.Buffer = True
Response.Clear()
Response.ContentType = "image/gif"

Response.BinaryWrite(get_image()) #the function is below.

Response.End()
----------
def get_image():
f = open(file_name, "rb")
s = f.read()
f.close()
return s

Thanks in advance.

This sounds a lot more like an ASP question than a Python
one, given that you already know how to read the image
file into a Python string. It looks like you need some
method for converting the string to a SafeArray, whatever
that is, so you should probably consult the API for the
interface you are using, maybe on the Microsoft site...

What problem specifically?

Passing a string *should* work. If not, try passing "buffer(string)"
