Is it possible to get the width and height of a .gif file in scala? [duplicate] - image

Question

I am able to read png file. But getting ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 4096 while reading gif file.
byte[] fileData = imageFile.getFileData();
ByteArrayInputStream byteArrayInputStream = new ByteArrayInputStream(fileData);
RenderedImage image = ImageIO.read(byteArrayInputStream)
Exception thrown looks like
java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 4096
at com.sun.imageio.plugins.gif.GIFImageReader.read(Unknown Source)
at javax.imageio.ImageIO.read(Unknown Source)
at javax.imageio.ImageIO.read(Unknown Source)
what could be the issue and what is the resolution?

Answer 1

Update 3: Solution
I ended up developing my own GifDecoder and released it as open source under the Apache License 2.0. You can get it from here: https://github.com/DhyanB/Open-Imaging. It does not suffer from the ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException issue and delivers decent performance.
Any feedback is highly appreciated. In particular, I'd like to know if it works correctly for all of your images and if you are happy with its speed.
I hope this is helpful to you (:
Initial answer
Maybe this bug report is related to or describes the same problem: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-7132728.

FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
java version "1.7.0_02"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_02-b13)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 22.0-b10, mixed mode)
ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION :

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
according to specification
http://www.w3.org/Graphics/GIF/spec-gif89a.txt
> There is not a requirement to send a clear code when the string table is full.
However, GIFImageReader requires the clear code when the string table is full.
GIFImageReader violates the specification, clearly.
In the real world, sometimes people finds such high compressed gif image.
so you should fix this bug.
STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
javac -cp .;PATH_TO_COMMONS_CODEC GIF_OverflowStringList_Test.java
java -cp .;PATH_TO_COMMONS_CODEC GIF_OverflowStringList_Test
EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
complete normally. no output
ACTUAL -
ArrayIndexOutOfBounds occurs.

This bug can be reproduced always.
The bug report also provides code to reproduce the bug.
Update 1
And here is an image that causes the bug in my own code:
Update 2
I tried to read the same image using Apache Commons Imaging, which led to the following exception:
java.io.IOException: AddStringToTable: codes: 4096 code_size: 12

That looks very similar to the problem we have with ImageIO, so I reported the bug at the Apache Commons JIRA: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMAGING-130.

Answer 2

I encountered the exact same problem you did, but I had to stick to an ImageIO interface, which no other library did. Apart from Jack's great answer, I simply patched the existing GIFImageReader class with a few lines of code, and got it marginally working.
Copy this link into PatchedGIFImageReader.java and use as such:
reader = new PatchedGIFImageReader(null);
reader.setInput(ImageIO.createImageInputStream(new FileInputStream(files[i])));
int ub = reader.getNumImages(true);
for (int x=0;x<ub;x++) {
BufferedImage img = reader.read(x);
//Do whatever with the new img bufferedimage
Be sure to change the package name to whatever you're using.
Unfortunately results may vary, as the patch was a 1 minute bugfix that basically just exits the loop if it goes past the buffer. Some gifs it loads fine, others have a few visual artifacts.
Such is life. If anyone knows a better fix instead of mine, please do tell.
