Cathy, all, A little more information on GDIPLUS, from http://svn.haxx.se/tsvnusers/archive-2008-08/0334.shtml copied below
Note the part about MS not recommending bundling GDIPLUS with applications. Did we know that? Bill ========================================== . . . Why so complicated? Do as it says and download gdiplus from the ms website: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=6A63AB9C-DF12-4D41- 933C-BE590FEAA05A&displaylang=en > This new behaviour is undesirable. Firstly, I have to go and download > and install the file myself without any advice as to where to download > it from. Secondly, Microsoft themselves advise that applications should > bundle gdiplus.dll into their installation area rather than install it > into the system32 folder. No advice where to download? It clearly tells you to download it from Microsoft. So, what would you do? * go to http://microsoft.com * enter "gdiplus" in the search box * the *first* result is the download page for gdiplus yes, very difficult. And no, MS does *not* recommend that applications should bundle gdiplus. In fact, they tell you to *not* do that (after the problems they had because of the buffer overrun problem in gdiplus, they decided that this was not a good idea). ============================================ _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/165f01858522453eba3f253c5ae25...@bills ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
