Image plugin

No it means that Creator, the Qt IDE / Editor cannot be build as a static
Qt application as it really needs to use dynamic loading.You can however create a new Image Plugin and static link with your application.
But you cannot mix statically compiled Qt App and then use plugins dynamically.So you cannot have static Qt app and dynamic loading plugins.
Meaning your STATIC linked App cannot at runtime load extra plugins.
BUt you are free to link new ones in and that way support new formats.Can I ask what image format you want to add?
Also if dynamic loading is important, why use static linking ?

Thank you mrjj and LuGRU,
It seems the static liking to Plugin is the way to go. Dynamic loading is not important.
For now, I would like to support RAF CRW image formats.
And enventually I need to support pcx, pnm, psd, rgb, eps and NEF formats.@samdol
Hi
PSD itself is pretty hardcore. Maybe this can provide starting point

Hi do you mean a raw image format like in cameras or just raw as in no header etc?

CRW
Nope, never saw such plugin. For some camera vendors you have to use the SDK to read it.

http://www.libraw.org/
and use to convert to format that you can
load or embed into Qt app so it can load native. -

From the link, it seems we need to know
width, height ,QImage::Format about the raw image file before read it.
Could we know those information before read it?@samdol said in Image plugin:

Not really. That is why raw means many things.
One can guess about it if knowing color format/depth and the filesize but
ultimately it could be anything.For Cameras the raw format means uncompressed. Each vendor might save raw differently and hence
its not easy to "just" read raw files. -

@mrjj
when tried the code in the link with some raw files (NiKON NEF, ..) I could only see unrecognizable dots on the screen. Is it because I did not put the right w, h and format? -
Well most of the viewers use a library and hence knows vendor raw format and can guess
at format otherwise. Many raw formats do have a header to give more info.
So for camera raw means uncompressed and non filtered and not so much raw block of image data as it
means in other contexts.
