Beginner's Problem

Post by ceedee »

I just successfully installed ImageMagick-6.4.9. The build for VisualDynamicMT was sucessfull too. I want to know how to write a simple code to read a jpg file. I tried looking through the Magick++ tutorial for Windows applications. However it mentions some demo projects which I cannot find. Can I get some help to get started? Do I need to set any input library or changer my linker settings ? Please help.

Go to the C:\Program Files\ImageMagick-6.4.9-Q16\Magick++_demos folder. Note the path may be slightly different on your computer. Now click on the button workspace and build and run. Once that runs successfully, you can use the workspace and source module as a model for your own program.

The only files in the demo folder are a bunch of .cpp, .miff, .sh and 1 .am and 1 .gdbinit file. VS 2005 does not recognize any of them as a valid workspace.
