Include files for Image class

Hi there,

I've just started to experiment with the GDI+ libary.ยจ
My problem is that I can't make a Image object because I get the following error:

1>c:\documents and settings\elly\dokumenter\programmering\visual c++\custom window\custom window\graphic_functions.h(22): error C2065: 'Image' : undeclared identifier

I have included the following headers:

1
2
3
#define _AFXDLL
#include <afxwin.h>
#include <GdiPlus.h> 


Do I need to add more headers before I can use the class?

Regards,

Simon H.A.

hi,
you need to add

1
2
 
using   namespace  Gdiplus;


you will also need something like this before using it

1
2
3
4
5
void	setupGdi()
{
	CoInitialize(0);
	GdiplusStartup(&token,&startup,NULL);
}


and for linking you need to include the following libaries

gdiplus.lib
ole32.lib


Hope this helps
