Processing Images: Need good library for various image formats

[polemon]

Hi!

I'd like to manipulate Images of various types (PNG, JPEG, GIF, BMP, maybe more) with a C++ program.
Now I've found the Cimg library, but before diving deeper into that lib, I'd like to have some suggestions
on other librarys for image processing.

Those libs, don't need to be elaborate or something, resizing and cutting the image into smaler parts would
be sufficient.

However, I'd like that lib to be able to handle a variety of image-types.

Any suggestions?

regards

wxWidgets has some nice classes for images. Easy to use.

Don't know any libraries that support that, but there are a number of
libraries that can read in images of various types and return a neutral
format (like a bitmap) and then you just have to find a library which
can operate on those. Try googling for libpng, libgif, libjpeg etc.

Hi,

SDL with SDL_image works well for all those file types you mentioned,
plus many more.

Dear polemon,

I'm using ImageMagick, more specifically the C++ library Magick++. It
can handle a LOT of formats
(http://www.imagemagick.org/script/formats.php), it's also quite a
powerful library, but you can cropjust ignore the things you don't need.
The only thing, it can be tricky to use under windows (Visual Studio),
even if it is actually possible.

Regards,

Zeppe
