Hi, i am building a texture importer in java. I need to convert the textures imported by the user to some dds types.
I was seraching for an api that allows me to do it, i was thinking in use jmonkey or jogl, but in any of them i found a way to convert one given texture to another desired dds format.
Could someone tell me a way or an api to do it?
I'm in no way a whizz in Java, but maybe this will help you:

Here is a detailed look at BufferedImage and ImageIO

@Shippou - OP is looking for DDS support. Java2D's ImageIO doesn't support DDS texture formats. From the link you posted:
Image I/O has built-in support for GIF, PNG, JPEG, BMP, and WBMP. Image I/O is also extensible so that developers or administrators can "plug-in" support for additional formats. For example, plug-ins for TIFF and JPEG 2000 are separately available.
I did a quick search for a DDS plugin for ImageIO, but I couldn't find one.
