s:transform server side usage

[wquraishi]

I see this in the documentation and was hoping someone could elaborate. I want to use the s:transformImageSize within a method of my SEAM component. Basically when a user uploads a photo, resize the image to a specific size. Thanks.

It's easy to create your own transform - create a UIComponent which implements
org.jboss.seam.ui.graphicImage.ImageTransform. Inside the applyTrans-
form()method use image.getBufferedImage() to get the original image and im-
age.setBufferedImage() to set your transformed image. Transforms are applied
in the order specified in the view.

When you do your transform in your seam component, does it work for gifs?

[wquraishi]

Arrrrghhh!!! No the gifs just show up a transparent blocks? I don't see an exception thrown. Hmmm....

jpgs and png work like a champ. hopefully i'm just missing something and this isn't a bug.

I have the same problem. Someone filed it as a bug... I voted for it.

i've voted for it as well. let's get this fixed...considering quite a number of images out there are gifs.
