Take the following steps to create and run a program that converts image files to most common formats. This tutorial covers image format conversion for single-page and multi-page formats such as PDF or TIFF.
NOTE: Blue highlights denote an instance of a LEADTOOLS object.
|
1. |
Start Visual Studio 2008. |
|
2. |
Choose File->New->Project©from menu. |
|
3. |
In the New Project dialog box, choose Visual C++ in the Projects Types, and choose Win32 Project in the Templates. |
|
4. |
Type the project name as ImageConversion in the Project Name field. |
|
5. |
In the Location field, use the Browse button to navigate to the Examples subdirectory (such as C:\LEAD Technologies\LEADTOOLS 17.5\Examples\CDLL). Uncheck both Create directory for solution and Add to Source Control options. Choose OK. |
|
6. |
Choose Next> in the Win32 Application Wizard. |
|
7. |
Choose Windows application and Empty project
and do not add common header files for ATL. Then choose Finish.
Three empty folders will be created titled: Header Files, Resource Files,
and Source Files. Project Structure: Once the project is acceptable, in Windows Explorer go to the newly created project ImageConversion folder in the Examples directory. Make sure the project folder named ImageConversion exists in the correct directory. Inside the ImageConversion folder, there should not be any additional folders, only files of type .ncb, .sln, .suo, .vcproj, and .user. If there are any folders other than these files, remove the entire project folder and redo all previous steps. |
|
8. |
In Solution Explorer, right click on the Header Files folder, then Add->New Item. In Categories, choose Code. In the Templates, select Header File (.h). In Name field type ImageConversion. Choose Add. Inspect the newly created header file and make sure it is empty. |
|
9. |
Add the following code to the ImageConversion.h in the Header File: |
#define IDM_OPEN 100
#define IDM_CONVERT 200
#define IDM_EXIT 300
L_BOOL InitApplication (HINSTANCE hInstance);
L_BOOL InitInstance (HINSTANCE hInstance, L_INT nCmdShow);
LRESULT CALLBACK MainWndProc (HWND hWnd, L_UINT Message, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam);
VOID Window_OnCommand (HWND hWnd, L_INT id, HWND hwndCtl, UINT codeNotify);
VOID Window_OnDestroy (HWND hWnd);
extern L_INT ShowFileConvertDialog ( HWND hWnd, LPFILECONVERSIONDLGPARAMS pDlgParams ) ;
FILECONVERSIONDLGPARAMS FileConversionParams ;
|
10. |
In Solution Explorer, right click on the Header Files folder, then Add->New Item. In Categories, choose Code. In the Templates, select Header File (.h). In Name field type stdAfx. Choose Add. Inspect the newly created header file and make sure it is empty. Then add the following code: |
#if !defined(INC_STDAFX_H)
#define INC_STDAFX_H
#include <windows.h> /* Required for all Windows applications.*/
#include <windowsx.h> /* Needed for message crackers.*/
#include <tchar.h>
#include <commdlg.h> /* Windows' header for common dialog box. */
#include <string.h> /* Standard C header files.*/
#include <ctype.h>
#include "..\..\..\include\ltdlg.h"
#include "..\common\ltDemos.h"
#endif
|
11. |
In Solution Explorer, right click on the Resource Files folder, then Add->New Item. In Categories, choose Resource. In the Templates, select Resource File(.rc). In Name field type ImageConversion. Choose Add. |
|
12. |
Right click on ImageConversion.rc in the Resource Files, choose View Code. Select All text and delete its content. To this same file add the following code: |
#include "Windows.h"
#include "ImageConversion.h"
MENU_MAIN MENU
BEGIN
POPUP "&File"
BEGIN
MENUITEM "&Convert Image...", IDM_CONVERT
MENUITEM "&Exit..." IDM_EXIT
END
END
LEAD ICON "..\\..\\Resources\\lvsample.ico"
|
13. |
In the Header Files, click on the resource.h header file and delete from the project. |
|
14. |
In the Source Files, right click on the folder. Choose Add->New Item. Choose Code in Categories, and C++ File(.cpp) in Templates. Type ImageConversion in the name field and choose Add. |
|
15. |
Right click on ImageConversion.cpp and choose Open. Add to it the following code: |
