Hi,

I'm using ImageEn for quite a long time (with BCB). ImageEn package is absolutely no.1. package in the area of image viewing, image manipulation, layers handling, etc. I'm using it together with Intel IPL, OpenCV 1.0, and Scitech MGL 4 libraries (no need for image format conversion, just shared TIeBitma).

However, new version of OpenCV library (2.0) does not work with BCB/Delphi any more. No one has been able to fully compile and create libraries for Borland platform. Converting libraries to OMF does not yield any results.

To make a long story short, I'm considering in moving from Borland platform to some other platform, for my new projects. I've extensivly tested Qt framwork (with Qt Creator) for a couple of days and I must say that it's not elegant as when working with Borland VCLs, but it has some other advantages (at least, everything works OK with OpenCV 2.0).

Now, my question (and suggestion): Are there any plans of porting ImageEn to some other platform besides Borland/.NET? Not necessary some custom Qt qWidget, but something that I can use with other C++ compiler (MSVC, mingw, etc..)?

If not, I'll have to mimic some ImageEn features for my new projects and that's time consuming process and I'll never be able to cover all those rich features and commodity I have with ImageEn.

With best regards,
Sinisa Petric

There is a project named ievision (written in C++), that initially will add some features to ImageEn, like OCR and vision, as external library (it is a dll). Maybe it will, in future, include several ImageEn features and acts as a independent library.
Note that that dll (a single DLL file) uses internally OpenCV 2.1 and some other libraries, and exports several OpenCV features directly to the Delphi environment.
I hope it will help.
