AROS for AmigaOS: icon.library with glow, png and OS4-icon support
Bernd Roesch has ported the current AROS icon.library to AmigaOS. The library requires "AFA OS" and offers these benefits:
- supports icons of the new AmigaOS 4 format (32 bit, two frames)
- supports icons of the AROS format (32 bit, two frames)
- supports PNG icons (32 Bit, one frame)
- glowicons are no longer Workbench palette dependent, but are rendered with 24 bit depth - better quality, faster loading
- icons remain visible while moving with the mouse
- compatible with Dopus Magellan II 5.82, the icons remain visible while moving with the mouse, too
The current version is indicated as "final beta". As long as no problems are reported by end users a final version will follow soon.
The library has been successfully tested at the author's A4000 and WinUAE/Amikit.
The sources are available at the title link (iconlib_src.lha), too. The source archive contains also a current version of
libpng: v1.2.16 from 2007-01-31.
