[Mono-devel-list] libgdiplus heading towards cairo 0.20 (or CVS)

[Eto]

Great!

I am keeping a *close* watch on the development efforts in the 
Graphics.DrawImage area..  once that is working, i can start work on my 
wonderful application (porting from MS.NET/SWF to Gtk#/mono).

I've been looking at the code, but I have no clue on how to do any of the 
cairo stuff  (is there documentation anywhere ?).  

Just FYI, this is how I use the DrawImage method:

Bitmap b = new Bitmap(...);
b.LockBits(...);
// draw to bitmap directly in unsafe mode
b.UnlockBits(...);

Bitmap bDest = new Bitmap(...);
Graphics g = Graphics.FromImage(bDest);
g.DrawImage(b, new Rectangle(0, 0, bfinal.Width, bfinal.Height), 0, 0, 
size.Width, size.Height, GraphicsUnit.Pixel);
g.Dispose();

bDest.Save(...);


So far, drawing to the image directly works, but drawing one image on another 
doesn't (latest cvs asserts due to no surface assigned for the image).

Keep up the great work!   and if there's any of that cairo documentation I 
might even take a look to see what I can do...

Thanks!
Curtis.
