Hi

I looking for a TBitmap (Handle) independent graphic lib.

I like to use this in an ISAPI application and with handle/tbitmap based
graphics I have ressouren problems with multitasking access under heavy
load.

You could have a look at Graphics32, but I have no idea whether it would
suit your needs. (As far as I know it doesn't use any Windows API stuff
under the hood, so no handles, but I've never used it.) But I think if
you're running out of handles it may indicate a more serious problem, and
changing libraries might hide it rather than solve it.

To see if you're leaking handles, try running Process Explorer
(sysinternals.com) while your app is running and watch the handle count. It
should stay roughly the same (ie if it goes up, it should go down again.)
If it steadily goes up, you're probably leaking them. (Check any places you
use Win32 calls on your bitmaps instead of VCL wrapper calls.) Even one
leak can cause problems over time.
