Get QString data from the QPixmap

[SGaist]

QImage::bits gives you the starting address of the raw image data.

Where do you get that gif from ?

I parse it from my website.

Here is the some PHP code:

$_SESSION["image"] = implode('', $cod);  // gets code captcha
header("Content-type: image/gif"); 		//loads the captcha image
imagegif($src); 
imagedestroy($src);

I need this - $_SESSION["image"] = implode('', $cod); to be parsed so I can compare later with user input.
I use $_SESSION["image"] to validate captcha code on the website. So I need to parse it to the application but since the header content type is the image, I can't access the captcha code.

Another solution is to use this project from GitHub:
QtCaptcha

Also I can port PHP captcha generation to the C++ but it will take long.

What are you using to generate that captcha ?

@SGaist

I generate it by PHP code.

So basically, you want to decipher the captcha image you generate client side to check whether the use input is correct ?

[Cobra91151]

@SGaist

Yes.

You do realise that the goal of the captcha is to make it really difficult for computer to deduce what's on it ?

[Cobra91151]

@SGaist

Yes, I know it. I think I have the idea how to decipher it. I will try it and reply.

So my solution is:

I have stored $_SESSION["image"] value to the txt file witch is the captcha code. Then I read this file and now get the value to compare with the user input. Also I'm thinking about putting it to the database or restrict access to the file.

By the way, why do it on the client side ?
