Image meta data viewer

[avcaballero]

JJ, your new example shows me two images:
* Something like a molecule
* A window

Still it shows: "Line 30: image could not be loaded: InvalidParameter"

Though the firs time I executed it I got: "Could not open C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A\Include\GdiPlusImaging.h for Recall, FileRead$ etc."

The program you attached yesterday worked for me in another computer, though the TWell example not even get up.

Another example that works for me is the magdelouahab crystall ball, though it is a png.

I'll try to have it a look this weekend if I have time.

Regards

JJ, your new example shows me two images:
* Something like a molecule
* A window

Still it shows: "Line 30: image could not be loaded: InvalidParameter"

Molecule is tiff, the window is jpg, then follow four simple gif images. None of them works for you, apparently...

Though the firs time I executed it I got: "Could not open C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A\Include\GdiPlusImaging.h for Recall, FileRead$ etc."

That was the internal routine that generates the PropTags.lst sent earlier - I attach it here again.

The program you attached yesterday worked for me in another computer, though the TWell example not even get up.

Another example that works for me is the magdelouahab crystall ball, though it is a png.

TWell's example remains silent if it doesn't find errors. So your machine accepts jpg, tiff, png but not gif. Big mystery 8)
Did you ever install something to manipulate gif images etc ?

On my machine, there are apparently several gdiplus.dll versions installed:

Yes, my example show only error code if exist.

Here is modified code for it, more noise, based code from PellesC forum.

My God, no, as long as I know ;). In fact,
this John Findley's code works perfectly in my computer, including the wizard gif image

[jj2007]

Well, the mystery continues ;)

I got curious and checked my gdiplus.dll versions. There are four registry entries, see above, and my Windows folder has stored GdiPlus.dll in various locations. Here is the list of 100 - it's genuine Windows, greetings to Redmond :t

One more attempt: I have added a check for the stream creation.

[TWell]

Windows 10, as excepted with rtf-file:

File #108 - stream 02782598
## line 39: image could not be loaded, InvalidParameter

Now I can see also the dedndave avatar in the third position. Similar result to TWell:

Hi caballero,

Tim had an idea: Find out where gdiplus.dll sits, and try some tests with it on a different PC.
Attached is a new executable that reacts to pressing D (like Dll) - it asks if the path should be copied to the clipboard.

  .elseif wParam==VK_D
      Let dllname$=Space$(MAX_PATH)
      invoke GetModuleFileName, rv(LoadLibrary, "GdiPlus.dll"), dllname$, MAX_PATH
      MsgBox 0, dllname$, "Put path on clipboard?", MB_YESNOCANCEL
      If_ eax==IDYES Then SetClip$ dllname$


Find it, zip it, post it somewhere (800k zipped - too much for the forum), and hopefully we can solve the mystery :icon14:

Mine sits at C:\Windows\WinSxS\x86_microsoft.windows.gdiplus_6595b64144ccf1df_1.1.7601.23545_none_5c06d189a00e2c29\GdiPlus.dll - and it's the only file in that folder. One of a hundred locations where gdiplus.dll can be found on my machine - a brilliant example of superior software design Made in Redmond :lol:

[TWell]

These versions was tested in one Windows 7 PC and all works.

With LoadLibrary("GdiPlus.dll"), I always get the long WinSxS path, even if Gdiplus.dll sits in the exe's folder. Only if I rename the file to e.g. GdiPlux.dll, I can force loading this one. The test will be tricky

[TWell]

I used dynamic loading,  HANDLE hLib = LoadLibrary(".\\GdiPlus.dll"); in tests and local copy of dll.

http://masm32.com/board/index.php?topic=5827.msg62174#msg62174

[jj2007]

.\\GdiPlus.dll

The OS believes it's a specific file, so instead of redirecting LoadLibrary to the obscure sxs location, it takes it from the current folder. Neat trick, thanks :t

P.S.: In the meantime, I found out that my GdiPlus.dll is version 1.1, i.e. contains e.g. GdipDeleteEffect, while \Masm32\lib\gdiplus.lib is version 1.0 :(

[TWell]

There should be #101 - #107, 7 pictures.
