Convert BufferedImage To ByteBuffer

In applet its very simple to do this

BufferedImage originalImage = ImageIO.read(new File("c:\\image\\mypic.jpg"));

ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();

ImageIO.write( originalImage, "jpg", baos );

baos.flush();

byte[] imageInByte = baos.toByteArray();

baos.close()

ByteBuffer buf = ByteBuffer.wrap(imageInByte);
