CS664 Software and Libraries
To do the assignments, we strongly recommend using the vision libraries available here.
You can view p*m image files in unix using xv and in NT using wv (thank Walter Bell).
There is a shareware package called netpbm that supports conversion of p*m image files to many other formats and vice versa (useful if you want to print the images!). The package also has simple image processing utilities. If you are in the CS department, the package is already available. In the NT filesystem, go to \\raven\projects\CS664\netpbm. You can also download the NT version of netpbm here.
Libraries:
Here are NT versions of the libraries that support manipulation of p*m image files. Documentation for the library is in this file. These libraries have many useful abstract data types such as images, lists, histograms and priority queues.
If you get an error like :"The dynamic link library NTadt.dll could not be found in the specified path" you should do the following:
First Find NTadt.dll in the zip file you have downloaded( NTadt.zip). If you can not see it it is because your *.dll files are hidden. You can make them visible by going to windows explorer, choosing view, then options.
Now that you know where NTadt.dll is you have the following options:
Add the directory location of NTadt.dll to your path.
Place NTadt.dll in your build directory
Place NTadt.dll in some directory that is already in your path like c:\winnt
The NT version of the libraries should also work under windows 9x.
