Is this a Bug ? Image and NumericControl

[Anand Ganesh]

Hi All,

I just have a simple Windows Application with one Windows Form and one
button. In the Button Click event I have the following code.

Bitmap TheImage = new
Bitmap(@"C:\GV7TestService\SIDSpot\mrsiddecode_win\TestImage.png") ;
bool ImageLoaded = true ;

TheImage.Dispose() ;

When I load a 15 MB PNG Image, it works fine.

But when I add one numeric control to the Form and then run the same set of
code, it is throwing "Out of Memory" Exception. This is really absurd! Is
this a known Bug?

Thanks for your time!

Regards

The Bitmap and Image classes will throw an OutOfMemoryException" if the
image file in question is damaged and can't be rendered.

Are you sure that you're reading the same file in both cases?

Yes I am pretty sure it is the same file and also the 15 MB PNG file is not
corrupted, I can see it in Windows Picture Viewer.

If you have a 15 MB or greater PNG file you can try this out, just a simple
Windows Application will reveal this.

Thanks
