En mi VisualStudio no tengo instalados los paquetes necesarios para ejecutar algunos proyectos de C

Necesito que una persona bondadosa que use Visual C se apiade de mi alma jeje y me targetee este proyecto a la plataforma x64: http://downloads.sourceforge.net/freeimage/FreeImage3154.zip

...Como bien explican aquí paso a paso como hacerlo funcionar: http://www.sambeauvois.be/blog/2010/05/freeimage-and-x64-projects-yes-you-can/

Necesito esa librería compilada en "AnyCpu" y "x64"

De verdad que yo no puedo abrir el proyecto ni hacer nada con él, no es cuestión de vagancia, podría instalar una maquina virtual e instalar vs alli pero...requiere mucho tiempo y alguno de ustedes puede hacerlo en 5 minutos.

¿Alguien puede hacerlo?.

Un saludo, y gracias...

Una class de ayuda para manejar lo básico de la librería FreeImage

Convertir entre formatos, convertir a escala de grises, rotar, redimensionar, generar un thumbnail...

...Aquí más -> Librería de Snippets !! (Posteen aquí sus snippets)

Después de hacer un largo research por Google para buscar la mejor manera de este tipo de conversión, me he dado cuenta que el formato ICO en .NET solo son problemas y es casi imposible hablar de ICO + Transparencia en las Classes del framework, y después de pelear mucho con la librería FreeImage, al final he optado por usar un wrapper de esta lib para .NET, y aquí está el code que hice de prueba, funciona:

Imports FreeImageAPI
 
'Dim img As FreeImageAPI.FIBITMAP = FreeImage.Load(format, file, FREE_IMAGE_LOAD_FLAGS.ICO_MAKEALPHA)
 
Public Class Form1
 
Dim file As String = "C:\Users\Administrador.ELEKTRO-PC\Desktop\auricular 5.png"
 
Private Sub Form1_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Shown
 
    Dim format As FreeImageAPI.FREE_IMAGE_FORMAT = FreeImage.GetFileType(file, 32)
 
    Dim img As FreeImageAPI.FIBITMAP = FreeImage.LoadEx(file)
 
    Dim Transparency As Byte() = New Byte(0) {}
 
    FreeImage.SetTransparencyTable(img, Transparency)
 
    FreeImage.Save(FREE_IMAGE_FORMAT.FIF_ICO, img, "c:\test.ico", FREE_IMAGE_SAVE_FLAGS.DEFAULT)
 
End Sub
 
End Class

Lo que tu prefieras no importa cuando aceptaste las reglas del foro, imagino que las habrás leido, ¿verdad?, pues debes respetarlas, no puedes hacer lo que quieras e iniciar discusiones de esta manera.

Hacerlo por mensaje privado.

¿En que quieres llevar razón?, en que a lo mejor Ikillnukes ha tenido un despiste y no ha visto un video, o tal vez que el video pro cualquier motivo no habia cargado en su navegador?, ¿y que?, ¿eso te parece un motivo para seguir una discusión sin sentido de dos páginas?

¿Ya basta no?, ya basta los dos.

Saludos.

Importa poco quien tenga razón.

¿Sabeis que existen los mensajes privados?, para arreglar vuestros asuntos y quedar a la salida del instituto, y esas cosas... sobretodo para no perturbar la armonía de esta nuestra comunidad.

PD: Si vais a seguir por aquí esperar 5 minutos que ya tengo las palomitas en el microondas xD.

Saludos

La cuestión es que @Syntax dijo que había un video, pero Ikillnukes no vió ninguno, y yo que estaba colocado de hierba ví tres videos, ¿¡Quien tiene razón!?. 

Vamos a ver, si le librería necesita ser adjuntada (como todas las que conozco que manejan procesos), por mucho que digas que sobra, lo tienes que hacer, ahora, como ya digo yo no uso esa lib así que no sé seguro como funciona.

Un saludo

Me encantan vuestras apuñaladas salvajes xD

Al guardar por segunda vez, antes de serializar, deserializas?.
