ocr in image processing

[ram mane]

class pp
{
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {


File newFile=new File("asdhjsadb.png");
byte[] fileData = new byte[ (int)newFile.length()];
InputStream inStream = new FileInputStream( newFile);
inStream.read(fileData);
inStream.close();
String tempFileData = new String(fileData);
String imageString=new BASE64Encoder().encode(fileData);


}
i am working on final year project please tell me which package or which jar i will include in that code .
in this above code error"BASE64Encoder cannot be resolved to a type" what i can i do for removing that
error please tell me thanks in advance

Here is a base-64 encoder/decoder you can use. Its API is a bit different from what you're using, but I'm sure you can figure it out. Alternatively, use the Apache Commons Codec library.

So you don't want to tell us about the cross posting here http://www.codeproject.com/Questions/664546/image-processing-in-java?
Please read BeForthrightWhenCrossPostingToOtherSites (<=link; click)

Out of curiosity, where did you get this code in the first place?

[Ulf Dittmer]

Assuming that the goal is still to do OCR -as the subject of this topic suggest it is- I'm curious what you think this will achieve, though.

Also, this: "String tempFileData = new String(fileData)" is wrong. Image data is binary, you can't store it in a string unless you base-64 encode it first.
