As I have some experience with GDI programming (I've always disliked MFC
& VCL), I thought I might help.
BTW, is it only me, or are the Microsoft guys on drugs ? The GDI+ seemed
nice with its alpha blending and gradient support, but it is a C++ only
interface, with all the name mangling problems that it will lead to...
Well, I suppose it was done on purpose. What will be the only C++
compiler able to compile code for GDI+ ? You can guess the answer.
