Vampyre Imaging Library is cross-platform native Object Pascal (Delphi and Free Pascal) image loading, saving, and manipulation library.

Imaging library features:

• Native Object Pascal open source crossplatform library with no dependencies on any dynamically linked libraries or other platform specific binaries. Supported platforms are:
  • Windows x86/AMD64
  • Linux x86/AMD64
  • FreeBSD x86/AMD64
  • Mac OS X on Intel
• Loading and saving of these image file formats:

  • indexed formats
  • grayscale formats
  • floating point formats (IEEE754 and half precision)
  • compressed formats like DXT1/3/5, 3Dc, and BTC
• Basic image manipulation functions working for all supported data formats and conversions between them (bilinear/bicubic resizing, mipmap generation, color reduction, ...).
• Low level library interface (accessible by other programming languages) and high level OOP one.
• Extensions for creating OpenGL, Direct3D, and SDL textures/surfaces.
• VCL, and LCL graphic classes and functions.
• Image drawing with blending, linear and nonlinear filters, point transforms, binary morphology, drawing lines, ellipses, rectangles, etc.
