Introduction
This software example demonstrates how to use multi-core technologies to edit images. There are two parts to this project, a .NET Windows application front end written using C# and Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) and a C++ DLL which is responsible for the actual manipulation of the image.
The image editing is done by applying filters to images, where each filter is a different function in the C++ DLL. The C# front end passes the image bitmap data to the C++ DLL, the DLL processes the image by applying a chosen filter, the DLL then passes back to C# GUI the newly created image. Further, this app allows the user to see the performance difference between running single-core vs. multi-core.
