Luis,

I think the memory allocation is actually done in
ImageFileReader::GenerateData().  I think the only modification would be to:
1) remove the call to ReadHeader() in CanReadFile() inside each file reader.
2) add a call to m_ImageIO->ReadHeader() in ImageFileReader::GenerateData()
before the space is allocated for the image.


thanks,
