Maybe instead of the GraphicClass.ClassName the first extension can be

That means, that an old IDE cannot read the graphic.
This will break Delphi compatibility, i.e. forms with an image in which the Picture has been loaded by Delphi will not be readable by Lazarus any more, and vice versa. Just checked again the signature that Delphi writes to the begin of the Picture.Data: it's the class name, not the extension.

And what about writing the extension to the data end?

    Picture.Data = {
      0B 54 49 6D 61 67 69 6E 67 50 4E 47 89 50 4E 47 0D 0A 1A 0A 00 00 00 0D 49 48 44 52 00 00 01 C6       11 T  I  m  a  g  i  n  g  P  N  G                // 11 is the length byte
      03 p  n  g

That should be both Delphi and legacy Lazarus compatible if the reader reads only the defined count of bytes for the classname?

But isn't this the same problem? When Vampyre is not installed, and the streamer sees the TImageingPNG classname there is no way how to find the end of the Picture.Data block.


Newer Lazarus versions would first search the extension and if not found they search for the classname.

Where's that? AFAICS, TPicture only looks for the classname. From Laz/main:

procedure TPicture.ReadData(Stream: TStream);
var
  GraphicClassName: Shortstring;
  NewGraphic: TGraphic;
  GraphicClass: TGraphicClass;
  ok: boolean;
begin
*  Stream.Read(GraphicClassName[0], 1);**
**  Stream.Read(GraphicClassName[1], length(GraphicClassName));*
  GraphicClass := GetPicFileFormats.FindClassName(GraphicClassName);
  NewGraphic := nil;
  if GraphicClass <> nil then begin
    NewGraphic := GraphicClass.Create;
    ok:=false;
    try
      NewGraphic.ReadData(Stream);
      ok:=true;
    finally
      if not ok then NewGraphic.Free;
    end;
  end;
  FGraphic.Free;
  FGraphic := NewGraphic;
  if NewGraphic <> nil then begin
    NewGraphic.OnChange := @Changed;
    NewGraphic.OnProgress := @Progress;
  end;
  Changed(Self);
end;

procedure TPicture.WriteData(Stream: TStream);
var
  GraphicClassName: ShortString;
begin
  with Stream do
  begin
    if Graphic <> nil then
      GraphicClassName := Graphic.ClassName
    else
      GraphicClassName := '';
*    Write(GraphicClassName, Length(GraphicClassName) + 1);*
    if Graphic <> nil then
      Graphic.WriteData(Stream);
  end;
end;
