Ok, you posted a pile of code but your last lne makes no sense. Is average_array supposed to be a function? If it is a variable how are you setting it? That last line of code is not inside any function so it will not work as is. Also, you declared sum_array to be a function that takes two parameters, but in the last line you are treating it as a variable, that will not work.
Straighten out what you want that last line to be.

Thanks a lot - I put the last line in the for of the sum function above and changed the operand to match the variable.
It works now- great!
Thanks again,

hi
i want to find the temp folder path of the user and not the windows.
so is there a way to get the info.
thnx

Look up SHGetSpecialFolderPath(). You're looking for a CSIDL that matches the folder you're trying to get - the closest I could find was CSIDL_INTERNET_CACHE which is for storing the user's temporary internet files.

well this is ok but i think we don't have direct way to do that.
do we have?
well this leads to C:\WINDOWS\TEMP when i want something C:\Documents and Settings\User\Local Settings\Temp.
any idea??

In the "old days" the "TEMP" or "TMP" environment variable was used.
The GetTempPath() API will get you that path.
For new apps, I highly recommend following the OS guidelines for storing application data.
It can save a lot of headaches in the newer, more secure, OSs (ie Vista).
The best document I've found for this is the XP logo specs, section 3 (more specifically, 3.2).
Here's an excerpt:
From "Designed for Microsoft Windows XP” Application Specification
This section identifies the valid file folders and the valid registry locations that applications
must use for this data, and gives guidance on how to choose which of these locations are best
used in different circumstances. The choice of valid locations to use is left to the software
developer.
Classify application data into the following categories:
• Per user, roaming
• Per user, non-roaming
• Per computer (non-user specific and non-roaming)
NOTE There may be more than one category for the different application data stored by your
application.
For applications not intended to be used in a domain environment (most games and home products
for example), classifying the application data as per user, non-roaming might be an appropriate
choice.
It is best to use application data file folders rather than the registry for storing application
data in excess of 64K. The registry is an acceptable choice for small amounts of data. At
installation time, try to store less than a total of 128K across HKEY_CURRENT_USER (HKCU) and
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE (HKLM).
To comply with this specification, store application data files appropriately as either common or
per-user. That is:
• In a subfolder of either the common application folder (identified by
CSIDL_COMMON_APPDATA), or
• In the user profile folders: application data (CSIDL_APPDATA) or local application data
(CSIDL_LOCAL_APPDATA).
The subfolder to create to store user data files in is:
[company name]\[product name]\[version].

Then you probably need to set the environment variables properly.
Mine look like this on XP:
TEMP = %USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Temp
TMP = %USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Temp

Well thats because you typed in TEMP just type in %temp% in the run dialog and see where it takes.
Sorry for replying late.

GetTempPath() returns a temp directory that is writable by the account your code is running under. If you get C:\windows\temp then that's what you should use. If you need the path for a different account, you'll need to log in as that user, get an access token, and pass that token to SHGetFolderPath().

yes it worked.
i got it.
thnx for the help.

Once you get the jpeg in memory, it's all the same, so just load the file an display it.

Using VS2005
I'm trying to use FreeImage as a library. I've compiled the code into a lib file, and the project that uses the lib can find the appropriate header file (as well as the lib file), yet I still get unresolved externals (it looks like every function in the freeimage.lib). This is driving me insane. What step have I missed?

I had to compile some additional libs and then link them to my project. The docs say nothing about having to do this. Of course, the docs don't mention being able to even compile a static version.

I'm pretty sure you did this, but just in case: Did you add the lib file to the project?
You've probably seen this as well, but just in case it helps:
1. Compile the FreeImage library in debug and release modes and close your projects. You won't
need to use the FreeImage source code anymore.
Note: Do not compile the FreeImage DLL (project named FreeImage) but the project named
FreeImageLib. This should produce a huge file named FreeImage.lib (in release mode) or
FreeImaged.lib (in debug mode) in the Dist\ directory.
2. Copy FreeImage.lib/FreeImaged.lib into your lib\ directory or in a directory where the linker
can find them (e.g. your project directory). You can use "Menu->Tools->Options->Directories-
>Library files" for this.
3. Create a new project and add your code in it.
Add a call to FreeImage_Initialise() at the beginning of you main function and a call to
FreeImage_DeInitialise() at the end of this function.
4. Edit the compiler options (Menu -> Project -> Settings)
1. tab C/C++ : Category "Preprocessor"
* Add FREEIMAGE_LIB to the preprocessor definitions
2. tab C/C++ : Category "Code Generation"
* Use the Multithreaded run-time library (in release mode)
* Use the Debug Multithreaded run-time library (in debug mode)
5. Edit linker options (Menu -> Project -> Settings)
1. tab Link : Category Input
* Add FreeImage.lib to the list of object/library modules (release mode)
* Add FreeImaged.lib to the list of object/library modules (debug mode)
2. tab Link : Category Input
* Add LIBCMT to the Ignore library list (it helps to avoid a warning)
6. Compile and link your program.

Yeah, I did all that, and even un-did it and re-did it a couple of times just to make sure I didn't miss something.

Maybe a very stupid question: didn't you forget to link to this library inside your project settings ?
John Simmons / outlaw programmer wrote: yet I still get unresolved externals (it looks like every function in the freeimage.lib).
So, your other project gives linking errors even for functions that it doesn't use from the dll ? Or only those that you are using ? Ca nyou show some of the link errors ?
