| Sam, |
| |
| First, let me thanks all of you how have worked |
| on that great TIFF library ! |
| |
| Here is some information that may help someone. |
| |
| I build the library under Windows 95 as a 32-bit library. |
| The contribution of Scott Wagner (tif_win32.c) worked fine, but |
| the makefile "makefile.msc" was unsable because it was |
| written for DOS or Windows 3.1 and all the files names |
| are limited to 8 characters. |
| |
| Here is the makefile I used : makefile.w95 |
| |
| Also, I had to disable fax3 support because I wasn't able |
| to build (as it is) the tool "mkg3states" to generate the include |
| file "g3states.h". |
| This source file must be modify to be build under Windows 95. |
| |
| To build the library under Windows 95 with Visual C++ 2.0, |
| I had to : |
| |
| - undefine CCITT_SUPPORT in "tiffconf.h" |
| |
| - create the file version.h with this line : |
| #define VERSION "3.4beta024" |
| |
| - build the makefile "makefile.w95" |
| |
| I also join the source file "tif2dib.c" that I created, |
| it contain the function LoadTIFFinDIB that load |
| a TIFF file and build a memory DIB with it and return the |
| HANDLE (HDIB) of the memory bloc containing this DIB. |
| Since DIB is the "natural" bitmap format for Windows 3.1, 95 and NT, |
| this function sould be usefull for some Windows 95 (or NT) developer. |
| |
| |
| Sorry for my approximate english ... |
