I have a simple Windows/Linux console application that I would like to retrofit with a couple of windows for displaying images during data processing. I’d prefer to not have to change the existing code to add support for the JUCE framework, i.e START_JUCE_APPLICATION, etc.
With the use of initialiseJuce_GUI/shutdownJuce_GUI, should I be able to do this?
For example, should the following test code actually work?
class TestWindow: public DocumentWindow
{
public:
TestWindow( Image* image = NULL)
: DocumentWindow (T(“TestWindow”),
Colours::lightgrey,
DocumentWindow::allButtons,
true)
{
//setContentComponent (new ImageComponent( image ));
setVisible (true);
// centre the window on the desktop with this size
centreWithSize( 400, 200 );
}
~TestWindow()
{
}
};
int main(int, char**)
{
initialiseJuce_GUI();
File file( filename );
if( !file.exists() )
return false;
FileInputStream stream( file );
ImageFileFormat* format = ImageFileFormat::findImageFormatForStream( stream );
if( NULL == format )
return false; // no decoder found
Image* image = format->decodeImage( stream );
if( NULL == image )
return false; // failed to decode
TestWindow* wnd = new TestWindow( image );
shutdownJuce_GUI();
return 0;
}
