Initialize(String) Method




ImageGear24.Formats.Pdf Assembly > ImageGear.Formats.PDF Namespace > ImGearPDF Class > Initialize Method : Initialize(String) Method
Path to PDF/PS library.
Initializes PDF and PS libraries.
Syntax
'Declaration
 
Public Overloads Shared Sub Initialize( _
   ByVal resourcePath As String _
) 
'Usage
 
Dim resourcePath As String
 
ImGearPDF.Initialize(resourcePath)
public static void Initialize( 
   string resourcePath
)
public: static void Initialize( 
   string* resourcePath
) 
public:
static void Initialize( 
   String^ resourcePath
) 

Parameters

resourcePath
Path to PDF/PS library.
Remarks
This initialization method must be called for each thread in the multi-threaded application.

A call to an Initialize() method should be paired with a call to the Terminate method. The very first call to Initialize() will initialize the entire PDF library, while its paired call to Terminate method will de-initialize and release its memory. Multiple PDF initialization/termination pairs are supported in a multi-threaded PDF application, because it is required to initialize and terminate PDF in each child thread.

PS support requires both ImGearFileFormats.Filters.Add(ImGearPDF.CreatePDFFormat(path)) and ImGearFileFormats.Filters.Add(ImGearPDF.CreatePSFormat(path)) calls be made before the call to ImGearPDF.Initialize(path).
