I need to work with some bitmaps in managed code and save them as PNG files. Should I use Microsoft.WindowsAPICodePack.DirectX.WindowsImagingComponent, or System.Windows.Media.Imaging? They both seem very similar, and I’m not sure why I would choose one over the other. Can anybody compare and contrast them?
They both use WIC, that’s why they are so similar. The Windows API Code pack is retired content, you’ll want to use the WPF namespace since it is available on .NET 3 and up and doesn’t require a separate install.
