Product Description

Product Description
Delphi is the first fully object-oriented version of Pascal designed for the Microsoft Windows environment, yet it supports only the basic windows bitmap file formats. Derek Benner begins with the basics of the Windows graphics display, image file compression, and dithering and colour quantisation. He then details the formats of ten of the most popular graphics file types and presents Object Pascal source code to implement read/write modules for each format, as well as a sample viewer application to serve as a framework. Learn Graphics Programming with Delphi 3 is for experienced Delphi programmers and developers, and is ideally suited for professionals developing customs graphics and multimedia as well as Internet-based graphics applications. The companion CD contains all source code, sample images in each of the file types, and several shareware/freeware image manipulation applications.

1.0 out of 5 stars This book seems totally unedited!, 3 Dec 1998
By A Customer
Wordware apparently never applied any editorial skills to what was obviously a poor first draft of what could have been a good book. The text is often disconnected to illustrative code, the code on the CDROM misses some chapters and is not in the correct directories. It is a roll of the dice trying to find the code you are interested in. A large number of the formats covered are of no interest, and for the money it is a puny book. Nobody should buy this book.

1.0 out of 5 stars Save your hard ( or easy) earned money, 1 April 1999
By A Customer
I picked up this book in the Bargain book bin for $4.99 and paid five times its value. The book is poorly written, filled with errors and the CD ROM would make a good coaster. I gave this book 1 star but a 1/2 star is more appropriate.

1.0 out of 5 stars Do yourself a favor and stay away from this book!, 30 Mar 1998
By A Customer
Do yourself a favor and stay away from this book! This has got to be one of the worst programming books I have ever seen.

The code included on the CD doesn't match that in the book, and neither set of code work. The included examples crash, have missing files, and various other problems. The author includes his e-mail address but ignores all questions, so support is non-existant. There is not one redeeming quality of this book.
