thanks,
Could you plese tell me in order to make use of a win32 dll( which has a class named abc), to be used in MFC application.
I mean the settings has to be made.

I included the lib file and tried to create an object of the class abc.

abc obj;
aa=obj.myFunc (1,3);

Its giving an error....

error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "public: virtual __thiscall abc::~abc(void)" (??1abc@@UAE@XZ)
DemoDlg.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "public: int __thiscall abc::myFunc(int,int)" (?myFunc@abc@@QAEHHH@Z)
DemoDlg.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "public: __thiscall abc::abc(void)" (??0abc@@QAE@XZ)
Debug/Demo.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 3 unresolved externals

You should export your class.

class __declspec(dllexport) CyourClass
{

};

Then in the linker options->Addition include libraries, you must add the CYourClass.lib.

You can also use

#pragma comment(lib,"CYourClass.lib")

Also make sure every time you rebuild the dll, you are using the latest lib to link with the exe.

thanks for the reply..
But as i have mentioned , i am using static linking...ie there is no dll. only Lib file.
Could you confirm the same.

also what is the error cannot open file "MathLib.obj" means. when I already added the LIB file using the setting->link->general->object/library module

Thanks in advance

Okay let's troubleshoot that one. Remove all types of references to your lib.

just add this pragma to include you lib (example) :

#pragma comment(lib,"C:\\yourclass\\Win32StaticLib.lib")

And try the same. I think you are referring to a wrong path. Just check and tell me. Here in static lib you dont need to export or anything. You can simply type in the code and build the lib and start using it. I just tried a sample. Everything works fine.

I did the same...But got thte following errors...

Please help me

just for your clarification..

I have a class abc .the header file is as follows
// abc.h: interface for the abc class.
//
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

#if !defined(AFX_ABC_H__B8AC41A0_E396_422A_A532_0E8412AD2D02__INCLUDED_)
#define AFX_ABC_H__B8AC41A0_E396_422A_A532_0E8412AD2D02__INCLUDED_

#if _MSC_VER > 1000
#pragma once
#endif // _MSC_VER > 1000

class abc
{
public:
abc();
~abc();
int myFunc(int ,int);

};

#endif // !defined(AFX_ABC_H__B8AC41A0_E396_422A_A532_0E8412AD2D02__INCLUDED_)

the implementation file is as follows

// abc.cpp: implementation of the abc class.
//
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

#include "abc.h"

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// Construction/Destruction
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

abc::abc()
{

}

abc::~abc()
{

}
int myFunc(int a,int b)
{
return (a+b);
}

This is wrong. You need to prefix the class' name.

int abc::myFunc(int a,int b)
{
     return (a+b);
}

sorry for that silly mistake..
but its still giving some error..

DemoDlg.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "public: virtual __thiscall abc::~abc(void)" (??1abc@@UAE@XZ)
Debug/Demo.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals

actually to use the method, I made a object of abc and used as follows..is that fine?

#include "stdafx.h"
#include "Demo.h"
#include "DemoDlg.h"

#ifdef _DEBUG
#define new DEBUG_NEW
#undef THIS_FILE
static char THIS_FILE[] = __FILE__;
#endif

#include "abc.h"
#pragma comment(lib,"C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Visual Studio\\MyProjects\\dll and lib\\statically lin (LIB)\\MathLib\\Debug\\MathLib.lib")

void CDemoDlg::OnButton1()
{

int aa,bb;
abc obj;
aa=obj.myFunc(1,3);
}

Ok I'm still here. Do you have any specific implementation in your destructor? Even if it's yes, Let's try one thing. Just a temporary test, we'll restore it back. Just remove the destructor & try it again. That shouldn't be a problem actually but let's see.

Just remove this piece:

~abc(void);
&
abc::~abc(void)
{
}

its a problem of class i guess. When i created a simple function it works. But with a class doesn't work...

It's not a problem with the class. Can you send your solution (lib's) to dejavunic_at_gmail ?

Convert 16bit grayscale bitmap to 8bit grayscale bitmap

Writing 8-bit grayscale bitmap data

3-Mar-09 18:12

Hi All,

How can I convert an 16bit grayscale bitmap to 8 bit grayscale bitmap?

Thanks

Hi everybody,

I'm currently working with 8-bit grayscale bitmap scanned from my HP LaserJet 3055. I am able to read the Bitmap Header and its data into an array of BYTE. I write the values directly into Text File, the result is great! However, I can't create another BMP file using the data array I have.

For 24-bit BMP, what we have to write after the Header is the RGB data, but for the grayscale one we have to use the Color Table, right? How can I use the Color table properly?

Please anyone helps me on how to create an 8-bit grayscale bitmap!

Thanks,

Hi,

For an 8 bit grayscale image, between the header and pixel data, there will a color map of 256 colors. The color map will hold 256 shades of gray(ie R=G=B).
The actual pixel data will be a reference this color map. So fo creating 8 bit grayscale image do the following steps.

1. Open a file in binary mode.
2. Write Bitmap File header to file.
3. Write Bitmap Info header to file.
4. Write Colormap to file.
5. Write pixel data to file.
6. Close file.

Thanks

Thanks very much, Akt!

But how do I write the Colormap? I wrote the following code, but I didn't get the grayscale anymore; instead, I got a more green color for the new image.

for(int c=0; c<256; c++)
{
  fwrite((BYTE*)&bmpInfo.bmiColors[c], sizeof(RGBQUAD), 1, bmpFile);
}

Hope you have read the ColorMap completely from source bitmap. That is you have to allocate enough memory for reading the complete ColorMap(256 colors) for source image.
The following code will do this.

BYTE* pbyThumbImage // This is your source bitmap buffer.
const ULONG COLORMAP_START_OFFSET = sizeof( BITMAPFILEHEADER ) + sizeof( BITMAPINFOHEADER ); // Color map starts after Bitmap file header and Bitmap info header.
UINT uColorMapSize = 256 * sizeof( RGBQUAD );
pBmpInfoHdr = reinterpret_cast<lpbitmapinfo>( GlobalAllocPtr( GHND, sizeof( BITMAPINFOHEADER ) + uColorMapSize ));
memcpy( pBmpInfoHdr->bmiColors, ( pbyThumbImage + COLORMAP_START_OFFSET ), uColorMapSize ); // Now complete colormap information is within your pBmpInfoHdr->bmiColors.

Now you can write this colormap to destination file using fwrite with input buffer as pBmpInfoHdr->bmiColors and size to be written as uColorMapSize.

But soon after I've finished reading the Colormap, I displayed the value of each RGB I can see that the color itself is of color more than the grayscale. I did so by comparing the RGB I get with the value in Microsoft Paint (mspaint.exe). That's why the result of the new image is rather a color one. How can I solve this?

Which value did u take? R G and B from color map?

Hi Akt,

Now I've solved my problem. I make the Colormap again by myself through the loop, and write it into the new bmp.

Thanks a lot! Smile | :)

Hi all,
I placed two edit boxes and two buttons in my dialog. I want to click the first button to clear the first edit box , and click the second button to clear the second edit box .
In the function of clicking the button, writing the following:

void CSerialPortTestDlg::OnBnClickedClearrec()
{
m_sEditRec.Empty();
UpdateData(0);
}

void CSerialPortTestDlg::OnBnClickedClearsend()
{
m_sEditSend.Empty();
UpdateData(0);
}

However, when I click one button , both edit boxes are cleared!!!

Could someone tell me why ?I write these codes in vc6.0 and it's no problem.
