Generate images on the fly

[charlscross]

Hello! I've got one list, I need to generate an image for every item in the list, this image must be a label with text, which I will obtain from the database. My problem is that I don't know how to create the image on the bean, I think it should be a byte[] for showing it with an s:graphicImage, but I didn't find nothing about create images. Is there any easy way for doing this, for instance, a richfaces tag?

Thanks!!

Not sure about the tags, but you are 100% correct with you assumptions about s:graphicImage and byte[]. if you add a byte[] property on the list items s:graphicImage will render it. This is the approch I used to integate JFreeChart into my app.

You can use org.jboss.seam.ui.graphicImage.Image. See Image.setInput(Object)..
