Opinions about gdiplus startup?

Mayayana

11/6/2011 10:45:00 PM

I've been switching some code to GDI+ and
finding that it works very nicely. In one case
I'm saving a DIB to JPG file and in the other
I'm replacing StretchBlt, as it doesn't work
well for very large images. But I'm wondering
how costly GDI startup and shutdown is. At
this point I'm doing the startup and shutdown
for every operation, but I might need to save
100 JPG files consecutively. Or I might need to
resize a DIB to thumbnail every few seconds.
Should I leave the code as is, or start/shutdown
once for every mulitple operation, or start/shutdown
with program start and close?

You make it sound like going to the Dentist, they aren't that bad.

They are only good for the 4,000 or so people who are closest to the
stage(or have a good viewing angle.

The rest are only there to get drunk in the parking lot and go on
multiple beer runs during the show.

I wouldn't let that stop me from going to one stadium show in 22 years
personally, but to each his/her own. I'd rather see Bruce play than
not.

On a related note, a friend of a friend works at the Meadowlands and
can always get tickets even the day before. Word is that even she
can't get tickets for these upcoming 2 shows at the Byrne (staying old
school). So I'm guessing the best drop is going to be a single here or
there at best.

There's no way they're going to do a multi-stadium swing. Bruce + the
band know they're going to have issues selling out 2 or 3 shows at
Giants - stadium shows anywhere else would be half full. I think
that, if there is another leg, it's going to be very similar to the
last leg of the Magic tour - arenas in places that didn't get first
leg shows, plus Giants Stadium.

It is possible they're gonna bill it as a "last concert ever at Giants
Stadium" kind of thing.

It's not true....yet

there has been no official announcement or press release. This is all
still going off one person's post on BTX.

I said last year it wasn't going to be the last show at Giants
Stadium, everyone thought it was because of how badly the series sold,
but there was no way Bruce was going to let anyone else do the last
show at Giants Stadium, so of course he would be back this year. I
actually enjoy Stadium shows, it doesn't matter to me how close I am
to the stage, I can always move closer... even if I have to stand.

With progrmam start and close. AFAIK GDI+ has - like GDI - some caching
features which will be really usefull only if GDI+ hold in memory until the
last operation has been executed.
