I think the correct names for the functions to start up and shut down the GDI+ API are GdiplusStartup and GdiplusShutdown. Theres is more information in http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/gdicpp/gdip_cpp_functions_8yjj.asp

I have been testing GDI+ to see what is can actually do as compared to what to documentation says it can do.
I have found that the following is true.
1. GDI+ can only READ these image types, no others:
TIFF
JPEG
GIF
BMP
PNG
EMF (have had some problems)
WMF (untested)
Icons (untested)
2. GDI+ can WRITE the following image types, no others:
TIFF
JPEG
GIF
BMP
PNG
3. GDI+ does _NOT_ allow you to add new image codecs.
Any questions/coments contact adam_phillips@peernet.com

and there you be able to download Platform SDK.
At Platform SDK, you'll find headers and libraries relative to GDI+.

Dear Friends,
I have downloaded GDIPLUS.dll for all OS and now I am trying to use it but I need LIB and HEADER files of new version.
So can anyone tell me the right location to download its associated LIB and HEADER file(s).
Thanx in advance.

I have been looking at GDI+ and it adds several welcome features.
I noticed that it goes out and looks for COM objects that are image encoders/decoders. Cool, so it looks like I could write my COM codec for say JPEG 2000. I have source code to create the codec, however I am missing the documentation for GDI+ COM codecs. Help!

Hi
Max has found a neew distributable GDI+ in Microsoft Web Site, so I recommend that all of us download the new version.
This dll now have the GdipStartup and GdipShutdown functions. GdipStartup must be called by your app before using any gdip api (InitInstance is a good place)
and GdipShutdown must be called before your app exits. (ExitInstance is another good place).
Thanks to Max

It's very nice, plenty of examples...
Things are working fine, except that Microsoft tells us
that we need to call this function before using GDI plus...
GdiplusStartup(...)
This function is not in the DLL.
Anyway, I didn't use it, and everything looks more or less ok...

I've used the GDI+ example and have been very impressed. I tried to extend the example with RotateFlip. When you run the program it complains that the DLL doesn't have the function.
"The procedure entry point GdipImageRotateFlip could not be located in the dynamic link library gdiplus.dll"
Is there an update?
