Load BMP, GIF, JPG, PNG (and more) images without the PureBasic image plugins (UseGIFImageDecoder, etc).

Not my code, but no topic exists for it, so I made one.

Code: Select all

Procedure LoadImageEx(imgnum,file$,depth=24)
  Interface nIDXSurfaceFactory
    QueryInterface(a,b) : AddRef() : Release() : CreateSurface(a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h) : CreateFromDDSurface(a,b,c,d,e,f) : LoadImage(a.p-bstr,b,c,d,e,f)
    LoadImageFromStream(a,b,c,d,e,f) : CopySurfaceToNewFormat(a,b,c,d,e) : CreateD3DRMTexture(a,b,c,d,e) : BitBlt(a,b,c,d,e)
  EndInterface
  result=CoInitialize_(0)
  If result=#S_FALSE Or result=#S_OK
    #DXLOCKF_READ=0 : #CLSCTX_INPROC_SERVER=1

          If lock
            DC=lock\GetDC()
            If DC
              GetClipBox_(DC,re.rect)

                result=CreateImage(#PB_Any,re\right,re\bottom,depth) : imgnum=result
              Else
                result=CreateImage(imgnum,re\right,re\bottom,depth)
              EndIf
              If result
                DestDC=StartDrawing(ImageOutput(imgnum))

Original at german forum from stefan : https://www.purebasic.fr/german/viewtopic.php?t=12155

Also with :
LoadSpriteEx()
CatchSpriteEx()
and CatchImageEx()

I also created a module a few years ago to load and save images.
viewtopic.php?f=12&t=66497
But it works in a different way (it uses the normal PB commands).

I've been using the code at top for a while and it uses a depth of 24 which is good for 99% of images, but it needs a depth of 32 for images with transparency. I've got two files: one is an ICO from Reddit.com, and the other is my own PNG from Paint Shop Pro.

The code at top, when using 24 for the depth, doesn't show the ICO correctly (it has transparency); and when I use 32 for the depth, the PNG image is blank despite return non-zero for success when loading it (it has no transparency).

So how can I tell if a loaded image has transparency, so I can choose a depth of 24 or 32 accordingly? I can't trust the file extension because some files I load don't have one. So I need to test an image for transparent pixels somehow. Thanks.
