5	5	* On Mac OS X, you can use Runtime.exec(..) and call the commandline program "sips," which uses the ImageIO and CoreImage frameworks
6		-* On Mac OS X, you can use Brendan Duddridge's [[ImageIO JNI Wrapper>>http://wocode.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/WOCode.woa/wa/ShareCodeItem?itemId=430]]

7	7	* An all platforms, you can use Java2D with Java's ImageIO and BufferedImage
8		-* On many platforms, you can run [[ImageMagick>>http://imagemagick.org/script/index.php]] and use Runtime.exec to call the commandline "convert"
9		-* On many platforms, you can build and run [[JMagick>>http://www.yeo.id.au/jmagick/]], a Java JNI wrapper around ImageMagick

12	12
13	13	A utility class to call ImageMagick binaries as an external process with Runtime.exec, to either discover height/width or resize an image. It has a few default filepaths that correspond to what I need on my systems, you probably want to change them for your system(s).

15		-//Anjo Krank: I may be wrong, but I'm pretty sure that this code won't work, at least not reliably. There is no guarantee that the the contents of the supplied arrays are filled before the process exits. I had a lot of null-results when I tried this in Wonder. The only safe way I've seen so far is to actually wait until the stream is truly finished reading before accessing the result. And this can only be done by waiting on a sema. Take a look at ERXRuntimeUtilities for a version that does work.//

352		-An example how to resize an image with Java Advanced Imaging ([[http://java.sun.com/products/java-media/jai/]]). The jar files jai-codec.jar and jac-core.jar are in the NEXT//ROOT/Library/Java/Extensions folder and referenced in the classpath. This example uses logging capability from project wonder.//
