I'm using Magick++ as shared libraries (libMagick++.so.2, libMagickCore.so.2, libMagickWand.so.2) for our application which runs on Solaris 64-bit.

It works fine with JPEG, PNG and GIF images but when trying with ICO image, I got the above error.

Here is the piece of code that results in the error:

Blob blob(buf, image_size);
Image image(blob);

where the ICO image is read and stored in buf.

Here is my "identify -list configure" output:

And "identity -list format" shows:
ICO* ICON rw+ Microsoft icon
ICON* ICON rw- Microsoft icon
PICON* XPM rw- Personal Icon


In short the binaries works. I can use "convert" to convert ICO to JPEG.

So does Magick++ does not support ICO ? Or am I missing something that causes ICO handling to fail?

Any help is highly appreciated.

use the Search feature in the forum (see Search link on top right) to search for "ICO Files" many people have reported issues and solutions are given depending upon the issue.

Problem goes away if calling magick() b4 calling read(blob)
