EasyBMP Extensions

The EasyBMP project is pleased to provide an extensions package, which extends the capabilities of the library and provide utilities for popular environments. All are licensed under the BSD license. For your convenience, all are bundled in a single package that you can download here. You may include as many or as few as you desire. Currently, the extensions package includes the following:

EasyBMP_SimpleArray.h is an easy way to import and export tabular/ASCII data for your scientific visualization projects.

EasyBMP_Geometry.h adds support for drawing anti-aliased lines and circular arcs.

EasyBMP_Font.h gives support for a scalable, anti-aliased font for all platforms. It can be useful for scientific visualization projects where labels are required.

EasyBMP_win32.h provides several functions to assist in interfacing EasyBMP with win32/windows applications. In particular, it provides functions for window and screen captures, as well as conversions between HBITMAP and BMP objects. This particular extension is still in early development.

EasyBMP_OpenGL.h provides several functions to assist in interfacing EasyBMP with OpenGL applications. In particular, it provides methods for loading windows bitmap files as textures for texture mapping. This particular extension is in early development.
