Using ilLoadL from Delphi

[Ilan Simon]

Hi,
I'm trying to manipulate an image that I receive to a function as TStream.
I want to load it from memory and avoid writing to files.

// input variable declared as:
inImage: TStream;

// "lump" variable declared as:
  imgLump: Array of TILubyte;

// in the function I do as follows:
  // setting input image into a "lump"
  SetLength(imgLump, inImage.Size);
  // rewind stream to beginning
  inImage.Seek(0, soBeginning);
  // read stream and write into array
  inImage.Read(imgLump[0], inImage.Size);
  loaded := ilLoadL(IL_JPG, imgLump, Length(imgLump));

// ------------------------
at this stage, loaded gets the value 0 (IL_FALSE) and the call to ilGetError() returns 1298 (IL_FILE_READ_ERROR).

why?! what did I miss?

Thanks,
Ilan

Have you called ilInit?

[Ilan Simon]

Obviously. It's the first thing being done at the top of the function.
If I use ilLoadImage instead, it works. I still wish to use a stream as the data source.
Assume the data copied into the array is a valid image data.

Any other ideas? can somebody use the latest version and verify this as a bug?

Thanks
