What methods are these. Well is the complex one bilinear interpolation method.
If its not then is it possible for you to tell me with bilinear interpolation one. And yeh it would be great if you could provide me with few good links aswell to underrstand the theory behind it...
As i have to compare the both methods...and point out advantages n disadvantages of both...

Sorry I should have read your question more closely. The first method was to let someone else do
it - that's easy Smile | :)

The second is a shell to access the pixels to do it yourself.

I can't give actual methods since it's my business, but generally some form of interpolation
works well since the object is (especially when increasing an image's size) to create
pixel values "between" existing source image pixels...

My image processing articles cover bilinear interpolation. You'd have to convert the code from C#, which should be easy.

I cover the theory, also. There are on this site.

OK great...Thanks ....Ill go through it and would try to figure out advantages n disadvantages of 2 different approach...a simple and a bilinear one....

Thanks a lot..

I didn't mention, a simple solution is to duplicate pixels when increasing size and remove pixels
when reducing size, not taking into consideration nearest neighbor or anything.
This is the easiest to code but the resulting image, especially when increasing size, is the
poorest (pixelated, "blocky").

Good luck!

Are you using C++/CLI, or vanilla C++ in VS2005 ? You also seem to be asking people to do an assignment for you, why can't you find this info for yourself ?

what...?
I never asked any one to do my assignment....???? It could be a part of assignment but not the whole assignment...??????? But it is not any assignment...i am just startin teaching myself IP...so its a step1. Yeh but to get started i read this question somewhere...
I did find this info myself aswell...d only reason i put this up was bcos i was not sure of the different methods ...later i found out that bilinear interpolation is one of d complex method...so to make sure i ws right i put up a question here......And its always better to take some pre info before you start working over any new area and thats wt i did.. I am starting up with Image processing , speech processing and stuff...And i guess its right to ask some one experienced like urself....who could push me to the right direction....I mostly work over C#.net and recently only i started with MFC n all...
Anyway from next time i would mention what all info my google friend gave me and in what area i am confused...
Thanks for replying to my post...Problem solved.....

If this is .NET, then the listboxes have an Items property. If it's not .NET, you'r in the wrong forum

This is the C++/CLI forum. Try the Visual C++ forum, but first try doing a little research. You should ask a question which explains what you've tried. The fstream class is the best way to read a file, and you can read a file word by word with it.

"The C++ / CLI is for managed and mixed-mode C++ programming only " says the sticky post at the top of the forum. If you read that post, you'll see that it's for exactly what the name says - managed C++ and C++/CLI. This is C++ that uses the .NET framework. The visual C++ forum is for straight C++ questions.

GetProcesses in C++

Hi,

in C# it's possible to get a handle to a process by doing:
Process[] p = Process.GetProcesses();
and checking each process in 'p' to find a specific one by its using 'ProcessName' property.

Does someone now how to that in C++ to search for a specific process ?

Thanks a lot !

Pat.

In managed C++ you do it the same - it's the same .NET Process class.

UI thread not allowing Garbage Collection?

Assuming that you mean in standard C++, you're in the wrong forum.

One of my co-workers has had an interesting problem with an application that does lots of text processing. The text processing takes a long time to complete once kicked off (it runs on several gigs of data).

When doing a basic UI for it he set a button on a form that would start this long process (didn't use a background worker, its running in the UI's thread). At this point when watching the processes memory usage it was increasing very fast (around 3 MB's per second).

Then an interesting observation was made ... if a message box was shown after the initial processing had started, the memory usage would go down to a normal level and then for the rest of the processing it would hold solid.

The only way that makes sense to me is if the garbage collector wasn't actually freeing the memory for some reason, until the message box appeared. My guess is that this has something to do with the fact that the processing was being hosted in the UI's thread and not in a worker thread.

We created a console application to do the same processing and it has a stable amount of memory use for the entire time it takes to run.

Has anybody here seen anything else like this where UI threads cause garbage collection not to clean things up ... or at least have an idea of what the main cause of this problem is?

NEW dialog ID problem

after creating the new dialog (IDD_GET_PROFILE) and build the project i am getting the error
as
ID of the new dialog is not defined.
and if i click on the error it is pointing the
enum { IDD = IDD_GET_PROFILE };
in the .h file of the project.

the id is defined automatically in the resource.h file
where else we need to define the ID?
how to solve the problem?
