My goal has been to create a nice, clean Windows
app...ideally, just using
one binary, no registry pokes.
I ran into a problem though where even with my best efforts
to statically
link everything in, IM wanted to have its official install
to work.
I read a bunch of old posts that suggested I play with
MAGICK_HOME. This
must be outdated information, because it did nothing for me.
By looking at the registry changes, I have figured out the
following:
1) The only registry setting you *must* have is
HKLM->Software->ImageMagick->(IM version)->Q:(16
or 32
bit)->CoderModulesPath
2) Said setting must point to the 'modules\coders'
directory, which I take
to be dynamically loadable modules for various types of
images (JPG, PNG,
GIF, etc.)
3) It seems, then, that one solution is to compile things
statically when
possible, then re-distribute the contents of
'modules/coders' along with the
registry poke described above
4) However, what I'd *like* to do is to link in certain of
the 'coders' into
one big binary and dispense with the registry settings.
Maybe I'm old
school, but I like simple binaries
Can someone help me with #4?
