If you care about the type of file an Image was read from, you need to
read it into an ImageData first, and then create your Image from that.
(as opposed to reading directly from file into an Image). Image class
does not retain information about where the Image originally came
from. Only ImageData class does that.
ImageData data = new ImageData("C:\\graphic.bmp");
Image image = new Image(device, data);
// At this point, data.type will be SWT.IMAGE_BMP
// and image.getImageData().type will be -1 (SWT.IMAGE_UNDEFINED)
See org.eclipse.swt.examples.imageanalyzer.ImageAnalyzer (available in
the eclipse examples zip on the eclipse download page) for an example
that reads from file into an ImageData and then gets the Image from
the ImageData.
