How to draw HiDPI image resources as BufferedImage?

[Iris Clark]

Hi, Tobi.

Traffic on this mailing list has substantially dropped since JDK 8 shipped in March 2014.  To get your message to a wider audience, I recommend that you send it to 2d-dev [0] where you'll find the 2D experts.  Alternatively, jdk8u-dev [1] is where discussion about the JDK 8 Update release occurs. 

See the complete list of OpenJDK mailing lists is on this page [2] for other possibilities.

Thanks,
Iris Clark

Subject: How to draw HiDPI image resources as BufferedImage?

Hi,

Loading and drawing an HiDPI image resource (@2x) works with JDK8 very good (Image image = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage("/dir/image.ext“)). But how to load a HiDPI image and convert it to a HiDPI buffered image? Is it possible without creating a double sized BufferedImage and and than draw it via Graphics2D and scale 0.5?

Best regards,
Tobi
