Supported Image File Format plugins

eLynx SDK supports loading and saving ImageVariant for several image file formats. Image file formats plugin packages have the extension elxIFF.

Before using loading or saving servives, you have to register all existing .elxIFF (Image File Format) plugins. For this just use this code segment:

#include <elx/image/ImageFileManager.h>
...
// relative path where to look for image file format plugins
bool bSuccess = the_ImageFileManager.Register("Plugins");
