Req. from the guys in the ImageMagick VB Group
Posted: 2008-10-16T05:55:42-07:00
referring to a thread the COM+ and VB group: viewtopic.php?f=8&t=12121
We VB coders who want to redist IMObject need a prebuilt "COM Object Only" build of IM.
and it seems that creating that requires C++ and a bunch of knowledge about compiling that, quite frankly, we VB coders don't have. (really, I had no idea what that guy was talking about)
So I was wondering if one of you guys here in the C group would want to help us out here.
You should read the thread for the details but long story short: we need a stripped down build of IM that's just the COM DLL and just the support files that are required for it (whichever ones those are)
a list of what files are required for which functions would be good too (I, for instance, just need to read PICTs and write PNGs)
If I can't find someone to do this for the benefit of the community then I'll have to pay someone to do it just for my boss.
But either way I need to have this problem solved, I have an app to deliver.
AHA
