IGDIPlusMod for Free Pascal
« on: January 15, 2020, 09:50:45 am »
IGDIPlusMod - Modified IGDIPlus library with FPC support.

The free and open source library for Delphi and Free Pascal (Lazarus & CodeTyphon). It allows quick and easy implementations of complex GDI+ applications, in a natural Pascal-friendly code.
Required FPC version 3.0.2 or newer.

Original author: Boian Mitov http://mitov.com

Thank you very much (impressive; I would probably need to use it under Wine :) ).
use: Linux 64 bits (Ubuntu 20.04 LTS).
Lazarus version: 2.0.4 (svn revision: 62502M) compiled with fpc 3.0.4 - fpDebug \ Dwarf3.

Thanks, but you should thank Boian first of all. He is the author of the library, I only introduced minor corrections related to FPC support.

I just tested both demos under Wine on Xubuntu 18.04. Wine has big problems with anti-aliasing, curve filling, gradients and probably also with other operations. So generally, I recommend it only for Windows.

1. I commit the tpoint helper.When merged it means that in 3.2+ it will not be necessary anymore
2. Wine is on the verge of a new major version (5.0)

Thanks for the feedbacks: I don't really need to push the GDI+ into too "artistic" features.

Nice, it will improve compatibility with Delphi (for me it is important).

I did a test on Linux in virtual machine, so maybe on a "real computer" the end result would be slightly better. But it's good to know that a new version of Wine is coming soon.
