    Has anyone been able to get DevIL to work with
    Dev-C++? If so I would sure appreciate some info
    on the steps needed to do so. If not could anyone
    recommend a good image library that will work with
    Dev-C++?
    The main thing that I want to do is convert bmp to
    jpg and visa versa.

    Thanks

    Dale

      If DevIL is a library , then place the library under DevC++ ( meaning :  C:\Dev-cpp    ...   C:\DevIL  ) , then you must set the paths in the compiler options in devC++ to find the library.

      Hi J@ck_,
      Thanks for responding. DevIL is going to be a bit
      more complicated than that. I did a search in the
      forum, before asking the question. It appears that
      some folks have tried to get DevIL set up to use
      with Dev-C++, I thought maybe someone had accomplished the task.

      Thanks

      I've done it. you need to get impdef.exe to create the .def files. then you use dlltool.exe to make libdevil.a.

      I have prebuilt libraries on my website www.geocities.com/fragtheplanet

      Thanks for the response. I was hoping someone
      had worked it out by now. DevIL look like it is
      a pretty nice package. I will definitely give it a try.
      I'll also check out the libraries on your site.

      Thanks
