I'm looking for a way to conver my .bmp's to .ico's in c++. It's actually going to be a dll for a program i'm helping to make with a guy, and we want to use an external dll to create an ico from a bmp created by the other program. I've spent the last hour searching for bmp to ico conversion on google with no luck, can anybody help me with this?

welcome to the board Nelsobra.

I've read through the Java API and some C++ sources and couldn't find much to help you out with that, but I'm certain it can be done (see http://www.shareup.net/Desktop/Icon-Tools/...view-3414.html)

I'm not sure if you'd rather take the Java route, but if you do then see the libraries listed at http://www.geocities.com/marcoschmidt.geo/...age-coding.html for reading/writing to image files.

Unfortunately java is of no use to me, I don't have a java compiler, or know anything about the language. Although I'm still pretty new to c++ too.

I've seen some of these done in delphi, so I may look into that next.
