msegui & bgrabitmap

[codz01]

Hi
is bgrabitmap compatible with msegui ?

[rchastain]

Hi. Yes. For example, this project uses BGRABitmap: strumpract
(Look at the last screenshot, at the end of the page.)

Yes, of course, since version [5.2.0.].

There is even a demo in BGRABitmap source with fractal_tree.prj mseide/ideU project file:
https://github.com/bgrabitmap/bgrabitmap/tree/dev-bgrabitmap/test/test4ideu/fractal_tree

[EDIT] You will need to create the directory /units in the root directory of the project (empty directories are removed by GitHub)

Hello.

Did you set in Project Options-Make-Directories the dev-directory of BGRABitmap?

You will need to download the source of BGRABitmap from here:
https://github.com/bgrabitmap/bgrabitmap/archive/refs/heads/dev-bgrabitmap.zip

Unzip it and set the directory of /dev-bgrabitmap/bgrabitmap in project options-make-directories.

To use BGRABitmap with MSEgui, you will need those fpc parameters:
-dclass_bridge and -dBGRABITMAP_USE_MSEGUI

And re-build all (better to first delete all the files in /units).

Hi
sorry for the delay ,
it was my mistake i forgot the -B switch , msegui should rebuild with class_bridge define
it works fine now , thanks for the info

i forgot the -B switch

Aaargh, that "eternal" fpc bug is still not fixed, indeed, without -B, fpc ignore the content inside some {$ ifdef ...}.
