just a personal advice, why don't you use I Imagemagik library instead of CxImage?

I have a suggestion for you instead this code
you can use of CImage class(it has good methods for work on images) and its simple and like this:
CImage image;
image.Load(_T("D:\\mypic1.bmp");
....
....
image.Save(_T("C:\\mypic.jpg"));
or
image.Save(_T("C:\\mypic.bmp",Gdiplus::ImageFormatBMP);

I am trying to use Cximage class in my own visual C++ project.
I am using Visual Studio 2008 Professional Edition

All i want is to read a BMP file from hard disk and save it as a Jpeg file
But when i use the object of the CXimage class upon compiling i get a large
number of error of unresolved external symbols e.g

cximage.lib(ximaraw.obj) : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol

This repeats for all the tiff,jpeg.... objs

Any One can help me out i am having nightmares using cximage class.
Thanks

Hassan

Sounds to me like you haven't included all the associated libraries that CxImage uses to read/write the different image formats - they all look to be included in the source.

If that's all you want to do, though, and you're using VS2003 or later, I'd use an ATL/MFC CImage[^].

I have only imported to cximage.lib file.
As rest of the library files to include i cant find.
I am downloading the linked library files from http://www.xdp.it/cximage/

But after unzipping the files i cant seem to find the ".lib" file of each of the linked libraries
Do i need to compile the downloaded projects if so with what settings

I am using Visual Studio 2008

Thanks

To create a DLL project, go to the "File" menu, select "New Project" and then "Class Library" - that will generate a DLL instead of an exe.

I'm not sure I really understand what you want the DLL to do but it sounds like a file open dialog, which you don't really need to have as a separate DLL unless it's going to do some other things with the file.

There are three kinds of people in the world - those who can count and those who can't...

To expand on molesworth's answer, Win32 provides GetOpenFileName[^] (let the user select a file/files) and SHBrowseForFolder[^] (let the user select a folder).

Both are usable from VB6, if htat's what you need:

SHBrowseForFolder[^]

GetOpenFileName[^] - this example's VB5(!), but VB6 and VB5 are similar enough...

I think you dont need to make a dll for it you can use of these apis on VB(Stuart Dootson' answer).

Can someone direct me to an article if this is possible.

I have 3 interloops in a process that takes about an hour or so to complete, based on the data it seems to be right.

However I have that process in it's own worker thread. I was wondering if that can be further multithreaded?

As you've mentioned a 'for' loop, I think OpenMP[^] is probably the simplest first thing to investigate, as it's aimed at that sort of thing[^].

Here's a CP article[^]...

Yes and No!, answer is based on software design, your company software architect can help in this case. It very difficult to answer this question from remote.

I am deleting a record from the table and then using the MoveNext()fucntion to move to the next record in the recordset.Below is the code for that.
How do i do that using the code below ??

<pre>void CSimpdbView::OnRecordsDelete()
{
CSimpdbDoc* pDoc=GetDocument();
_CommandPtr pCmd;
pCmd.CreateInstance(__uuidof(Command));
_ParameterPtr paramIsbn;
CString strIsbn;

CEdit* pEdit = (CEdit*)GetDlgItem(IDC_ISBN);
pEdit->GetWindowText(strIsbn);
_bstr_t sqlQuery("DELETE FROM lib WHERE ISBN = ?");

int val = MessageBox("This deletes the record.Continue ?",NULL,MB_OKCANCEL);
if(val == IDOK)
{
try
{
pCmd->ActiveConnection = pDoc->m_pConnection;
pCmd->CommandText=sqlQuery;

paramIsbn = pCmd->CreateParameter("strIsbn",adVarChar,adParamInput,-1,vtMissing);
paramIsbn->Value = (_variant_t)strIsbn;
pCmd->Parameters->Append(paramIsbn);

pCmd->Execute(NULL,NULL,adCmdText);
MessageBox("Record Deleted !",NULL,MB_OK);
pRs->MoveNext(); //Should move to the next reccord !
}

catch(_com_error &e)
{
TRACE( "Error:%08lx.\n", e.Error());
TRACE( "ErrorMessage:%s.\n", e.ErrorMessage());
TRACE( "Source:%s.\n", (LPCTSTR) _bstr_t(e.Source()));
TRACE( "Description:%s.\n", (LPCTSTR)_bstr_t(e.Description()));
}
catch(...)
{
TRACE("\n****Unhandled Exception****\n");
}
}
}

Help Please . Confused | :confused:

What's wrong with the recordset's Delete method[^]? (Well, possibly this[^], it's something you need to check).
