Why aren't you able to use the AddImageFromVariant function with the ActiveX edition in Visual FoxPro?

Well variant data types are not available from within VFP. But we have an effective string support. Arbitrary-sized dynamic ones. And it's a joy to work with quickpdf from with VFP:)

... But I wonder why we cannot push the image from a string via the activeX edition. Is that a question of null termination?

All of these functions serve the same purpose but are targeted at the specific environments:

AddImageFromString - DLL edition
AddImageFromVariant - ActiveX edition
AddImageFromStream - Delphi edition

Why aren't you able to use the AddImageFromVariant function with the ActiveX edition in Visual FoxPro?

Hi Gadenne!

Due to some technical reasons not all functions
are in all versions available.
You can trust the documentation ;-)

Cheers and welcome here,
Ingo

Hi all,

I have an application written in VFP that uses quickpdf via ActiveX. Works like a charm.

However as I was trying to use the addimagefromstring  instead of addimagefromFile for cleaner support of on-the-fly graphics (I would like to avoid tempory-files-based tricks here). It did not work. It looks like the addimagefromstring is not available from the ActiveX. 

Is the documentation misleading? I definitely think it is.

PS: Other memory-based stuff are available (addimagefromVariant) but there is not such thing in my relatively limited toolbox. Any alternative option?
