Image.display() is not working in Magic++ API

[suji]

hi,
i'm a new nie in Magic++;

my devlopmenet IDE is visual studio 2008 and operating system is winXPand i'm using the dlls compiled using visual studion 2008 from the sources available.

i searched a lot but couldn't find meither a working example or details.

my problem is i need to display the image i read using the IMage class.
from the help i found there is a function display in image class.

but calling the function doesn't help.

the code snippet is as follows.

Code: Select all

 string fname("C:\\test.jpeg");
Magick::Image image( fname );

image.modulate( 1.0, 1.0, 1.0 );
image.display();
image.write(fname);

somebody please help me

thanks in advance
cheers,
Suji

The display() method requires that ImageMagick include the X11 delegate library and an X11 server to display the image to. Instead, use image.write('win:').

hi magick,
as you suggested i tried

Code: Select all

m_image.write("win:");

but i'm getting the following exception.

"Magick: DelegateFailed `"/usr/local/bin/display" -immutable -delay 0 -window-group %g -title "%l of %f" "temporary:%i"' @ error/delegate.c/InvokeDelegate/1061"

can you please do any help?

You do not appear to have the correct delegates.xml configuration file installed. Under Windows, the entry should look like this:

• <delegate decode="bmp" encode="win" mode="encode" command="imdisplay.exe "%i.""/>
