Hi @all,

I need to convert a RGB-image to a jpeg-image.
I tried the libjpeg but without writing an own destination manager it is
only possible to write the jpeg to a file. I need to write the jpeg
to buffer such as "unsigned char *buffer".
I also tried gdk_imlib but I have the same problem,
any ideas?
or does anybody have a destionation manager for libjpeg that allows to
write to a buffer?

any help is appreciated!

Just googling for "libjpeg destination manager memory buffer" gave me 
tons of code snippets. Have you at least tried? I can assure you what 
you're looking for *can* be done, and is highly likely to be there.
