Using the UNICODE version of LEADTOOLS in a non-UNICODE Application (C++ 5.0 and later)
Take the following steps to create and run a program that uses the UNICODE version of LEADTOOLS in a non-UNICODE application.
1. |
Start a new project as follows: |
|
|
Run Microsoft Visual Studio 2005, select the File >New menu option, and do the following: |
|
|
a. |
Click the Projects menu item. |
|
b. |
In the New Project dialog, select Visual C++\MFC AppWizard (exe) as the project type and select "MFC Application" for the template. |
|
c. |
In the Project name text box, specify a name (for example "chartest"). |
|
d. |
In the Location text box, specify the path of the project. |
|
e. |
Click the OK button. |
2. |
In the Step 1 dialog box, do the following: Click Next on the next wizard. |
|
|
a. |
Select Dialog based. |
|
c. |
Click the Finish button. |
4. |
From the main menu, select Project->Properties. Under Configuration\General, set the "Character Set" to "Not Set". Click OK button. |
|
5. |
Edit the stdafx.h and add to the end of the file the following code (Note: you will have to change the path of ltwrappr.h to match the LEADTOOLS installation directory on your system): |
#include "c:\Program Files\LEAD Technologies\LEADTOOLS 15\include\ClassLib\LtWrappr.h"
6. |
Edit stdafx.cpp and replace the contents of the file with the following code (Note: you will have to change the path to the .lib files to match your system): |
// stdafx.cpp : source file that includes just the
standard includes
// chartest2.pch will be the pre-compiled header
// stdafx.obj will contain the pre-compiled type information
#include "stdafx.h"
#pragma comment(lib, "E:\\Program Files\\LEAD Technologies\\LEADTOOLS
15\\Lib\\API\\Win32\\Ltwvc_u.lib")
7. |
Add a command button to your form and name it as follows: |
|
|
ID |
Caption |
|
IDC_FILEINFO |
File Info |
8. |
Double Click on the new button and Add the following code: |
L_INT nRet;
FILEINFO FileInfo; /* LEAD File Information structure. */
LFile File;
char szMessage[1024]; /* Buffer to hold information for display. */
char szInputFile[_MAX_PATH]="E:\\Program Files\\LEAD Technologies\\LEADTOOLS
15\\Images\\IMAGE3.CMP";
LSettings::LoadLibraries (LT_FIL);
/* Convert non-UNICODE to UNICODE */
L_TCHAR wcsInputFile[_MAX_PATH]=L"\0";
mbstowcs(wcsInputFile, szInputFile, _MAX_PATH);
/* Get the file information */
FileInfo.uStructSize = sizeof(FileInfo);
File.SetFileName(wcsInputFile);
nRet = File.GetInfo(&FileInfo, sizeof(FILEINFO), 0, NULL);
if(nRet != SUCCESS)
return;
/* Convert UNICODE to non-UNICODE */
char szName[16];
wcstombs(szName, FileInfo.Name, 16);
char szCompression[20];
wcstombs(szCompression, FileInfo.Compression, 20);
/* Format the message string with data from the FILEINFO structure */
wsprintf(szMessage, "Filename: %s\n\n"
"Format: %d\n\n"
"Width: %d\n\n"
"Height: %d\n\n"
"BitsPerPixel: %d\n\n"
"Size On Disk: %ld\n\n"
"Size In Memory: %ld\n\n"
"Compression: %s",
szName,
FileInfo.Format,
FileInfo.Width,
FileInfo.Height,
FileInfo.BitsPerPixel,
FileInfo.SizeDisk,
FileInfo.SizeMem,
szCompression );
/* Display the message string */
MessageBox(szMessage, "File Information", MB_OK);
LSettings::UnloadLibraries (LT_FIL);
