Width and height of a given jpg or gif filename in pixels

[Jean-Pierre LEROY]

Hello,

I'm looking for a function that can return the width and height of a given jpg or gif filename in pixels.

I don't think there is a builtin PowerBASIC function to do that.

Any ideas ?

Thanks.

Hi Jean-Pierre,

Are you still using Jose's controls which are based on Patrice's GDIPlus code? If you are then look in the include file for functions such as: GdipLoadImageFromFile, GdipGetImageWidth, and GdipGetImageHeight.

Basically, load the image from the file and then pass that handle to the Width and/or Height functions in order to get the values.
