Rails - Jul 2011 - Converting an Uploaded File to a string while maintaining binary data

Ok so it boils down to this I uploaded a picture into a
ActionDispatch::Http::UploadedFile and want to convert it to a string
before I send it off google storage. When I do this it complains about
having null characters.

I had the same problem when I was experimenting with files from my hard
drive with the same function. I was able to do it with:

File.open( ''filename'', ''rb'' )

but I don''t know how do read an ActionDispatch::Http::UploadedFile as a
binary. Does any one know how to do this? Thank you.
