For C++ developers the functions in the GDI+ flat API are wrapped in about 40 C++ classes. Visual FoxPro developers are not able to instantiate any such class in pure FoxPro code. That is why the flat API makes a good choice.
July 5, 2004: Visual FoxPro 9 presents new property GdiPlusGraphics. My understanding is that this property is applicable to the ReportListener and probably to the _SCREEN and FoxPro Form objects.

There is another GDI+ class written by Alexander Golovlev that you can find in UniversalThread download section. This class is freeware and contains lot of useful functionality.
* * * BINTOC() accepts new parameter in VFP9: bintoc(m.tW,"F") -- conversion to 32-bit float format. That probably makes conversion routines Int2Float and Float2Int in the code above obsolete.

May 10, 2006: Names of properties of RECT class have been changed from (Left, Top, Width, Height) to (rleft, rtop, rwidth, rheight). RECTF, a subclass of RECT, could not properly access the methods of the parent class because of those risky names.

May 19, 2006: Errors may occur when moving, deleting or copying graphics files that have been used recently for creating GDI+ objects. Most likely those objects still exist in memory and must be released to enable file operations. This is in a way similar to VFP CLEAR RESOURCES command not clearing cached bitmap file if it is still used in Picture property.
