BeRoPNG - A very tiny but complete PNG loader

[paul_nicholls]

I do want to share my useful BeRoPNG unit here. It's very tiny but complete PNG loader with a own tiny inflate routine, so it has no external unit dependencies. It supports even extended features such as Apple's proprietary extension CgBI and so on.

And here is the link: http://rootserver.rosseaux.net/stuff/BeRoPNG.pas (36 kB src)

It's licensed under the 2-clause simplified BSD license.

So have a lot fun with it

Thanks for sharing BeRo!

Is it ok if I use this in a closed-source DLL for an engine I am writing?

if so, I was wondering, how does one use this?

function LoadPNG(DataPointer:pointer;DataSize:longword;var ImageData:pointer;var ImageWidth,ImageHeight:integer):boolean;

is DataPointer just the start of a PNG file, and DataSize the same as the PNG file size?

cheers,
Paul
