Syntax
<Result> = BitmapInfo(<Name of image file>)
<Result>: Character string
  • Characteristics of the image in the following format:
    <Format> + TAB + <Width> + TAB + <Height> + TAB + <Bits/pixel>

    <Format>Character string
    • Three characters are used to identify the image format: "BMP", "GIF", "PDF", ...
    • "BAD" if the image nameis an non-existing file or if the format is unknown
    <Width>IntegerWidth of image in pixels.
    <Height>IntegerHeight of image in pixels.
    <Bits/pixel>Character stringNumber of bits per pixel:
    • 1 (monochrome image)
    • 4 (16-color palette)
    • 8 (256-color palette)
    • 24 (no palette, 16 millions of colors)
    • 32 (no palette, true color)
    AndroidAndroid Widget Java The number of bits per pixel is always equal to 0.
  • If an error occurs, the following string is returned:
    "BAD" + TAB + TAB + TAB
<Name of image file>: Character string (with quotes)
  • Name of image file or name of PDF file, including its full or relative path (up to 260 characters). A UNC path can be used.
  • Name of control linked to an image memo item.
Windows Mobile No relative path or UNC path can be used.

    Caution: the GDI + framework must be installed on the computer.
    AndroidAndroid Widget Java This feature is not available.
  • For the images in WMF or EMF format, <Bits/pixel> is equal to 0.
  • The following formats of image files are supported:
    • WINDEVWEBDEV - Server codeReports and Queries All the formats described in fGraphicFilter.
    • AndroidAndroid Widget Java JPEG, PNG, GIF or BMP.

PHP

Drawing in PHP

In PHP, the drawing functions are based on the graphic library GD. This library is commonly used by the PHP hosting companies and therefore it is always enabled. The version of the GD library must be version 2.0.28 (or later). This library can be downloaded from the PHP site.
To enable (if necessary) this library locally, the following elements are required:
  • PHP installed.
  • the PHP.INI file found in the Windows directory must contain the following line: "extension=php_gd2.dll" (instead of ";extension=php_gd2.dll").
  • the php_gd2.dll file must exist in the directory of PHP extensions. This directory is defined in the PHP.INI file by the "extension_dir" variable.
