==================================

To make Bio-Formats accessible to software written in C++, we have
created a Bio-Formats C++ interface (BF-CPP for short). It uses LOCI's
`jar2lib <http://loci.wisc.edu/software/jar2lib>`_ program to generate
a C++ proxy class for each equivalent Bio-Formats Java class. The
created a Bio-Formats C++ interface. It uses LOCI's jar2lib_ program to
generate a C++ proxy class for each equivalent Bio-Formats Java class. The
resulting proxies are then compiled into a library, which represents
the actual interface from C++ to Bio-Formats. Using this library in
your projects gives you access to the image support of Bio-Formats.

BF-CPP comes with some standalone examples which you can use as a
starting point in your own project:

just wanted to ensure that you didn't intend "JACE" here too

Once this is done, simply include it in your project as you would any other
external library.
