How to install freeimage.dll on Windows?

How to register/install freeimage.dll on my Windows XP machine? I have download the library and open my command shell poin开发者_运维技巧ting to the freeimage folder. I ran regsvr32 but the library won't install .

Just copy it to local or windows/system directory, only ActiveX and COM servers need regsvr32.

maybe the library has dependencies not fullfilled. try checking its dependencies using this tool: http://www.dependencywalker.com/ this software shows you all DLL's requiered by an EXE or DLL or OCX, if a dependency fails then regsvr32 fails to. first check that all dependencies are fullfilled.

i think freeimage.dll is very old to be used on this days...maybe OS incompatibilities or a Service Pack update can cause a fail.
