Hi list, this is my first message to the list. I'm begginer with the libtiffDelphi and i'm in trouble with the tiff resolution tags.

I'm using this code, in Delphi7:

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
procedure TForm1.BitBtn1Click(Sender: TObject);
var
  han: PTIFF;
  m, u, resunit: Cardinal;
  xres, yres: integer;
begin
  if OpenDialog1.Execute then
  begin
    han:=TIFFOpen(OpenDialog1.Filename,'ru');
    if TIFFGetField(han, TIFFTAG_IMAGEWIDTH,@m)>0 then label1.caption:= inttostr(m);
    if TIFFGetField(han, TIFFTAG_IMAGELENGTH,@u)>0 then label2.caption:= inttostr(u);
    TIFFGetField(han, TIFFTAG_RESOLUTIONUNIT,@resunit);
    case  resunit of
     1: label5.caption:= '?';
     2: label5.caption:= 'inch';
     3: label5.caption:= 'cm';
    end;
    xres:= 0;
    yres:= 0;
    TIFFGetField(han, TIFFTAG_XRESOLUTION,@xres);
    TIFFGetField(han, TIFFTAG_yRESOLUTION,@yres);
    label3.caption:= inttostr(xres);
    label4.caption:= inttostr(yres);
  end;
end;
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

when i define xres and yres as double i obtain 5.56078e-315 and when defined as integer i obtain 1125515264

but if i open the file with astifftagviewer i can see the correct resolution (150 pixels per inch)

What is wrong in my code? There is an example in delphi for that?

Thanks in advance
