The PNG Utilities plugin for REALbasic 5.2 and greater simplifies the
loading and saving of PNG format images, without relying on
Quicktime. PNG alpha channels are automatically converted to Picture
masks and vice-versa, allowing developers to quickly load or save
masked images with a single function call. Methods are also provided
to deal with strings of binary PNG data, which is ideal when storing
or retrieving images from databases, virtual volumes, or packages
such as zip archives.
Version 1.7 includes native Mach-O support (Xcode project included)
and the zlib v1.2.3 security patch. This release also resolves an
issue on Win32 when opening PNG images from disk in a file path that
contains double-byte characters.
PNG Utilities is free and opensource and compiles for all platforms
supported by REALbasic. Downloads and documentation are available
here: <http://developer.chaoticbox.com/>
NOTE: The Linux build remains unchanged from the previous release
(v1.6.1). zlib is dynamically linked on Linux, and must be updated
separately to take advantage of the recent security patches.
Frank.
