I noticed the boost::gil::extension::io only supports png or jpeg files.. While this is often enough I'm wondering how to load a bitmap (*.bmp) file into an image? Shouldn't this be actually easier than jpeg etc?

    Interesting - it seems there was a support for BMP in GIL IO before it got accepted by BOOST: http://code.google.com/p/gil-contributions/source/browse/trunk/gil_2/boost/gil/extension/io/bmp_io.hpp?spec=svn70&r=70 – piokuc Jan 21 '13 at 16:46

Hopefully you solved it. Just to add: install latest version of GIL on existing boost and then compile. The bitmap files comes under new 'io_new' folder.
