MagickWand.h vs magick_wand.h

Post by jave »

I'm working on an Emacs bug:

http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=7955

Could you offer an opinion on the best way to solve this?

The magick_wand.h header file was deprecated after ImageMagick version 6. Its still included in the distribution but probably should not be used since it will be removed in version 7 of ImageMagick (due in 3-4 years). It should not be a problem. Change your configure.ac file to check for MagickWand.h then use a conditional compile, something like:
  • #if defined (HAVE_MAGICKWAND_H)
    #include <wand/MagickWand.h>
    #else
    #include <wand/magick_wand.h>
    #endif /* HAVE_MAGICKWAND_H */
