TIFFReadRGBAImage(3T)		     Image Format Library C++ Reference	Manual


NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

     TIFFReadRGBAImage - read and decode an image into a fixed-format raster

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

     #include <tiffio.h>
     #define TIFFGetR(abgr)   ((abgr) &	0xff)
     #define TIFFGetG(abgr)   (((abgr) >> 8) & 0xff)
     #define TIFFGetB(abgr)   (((abgr) >> 16) &	0xff)
     #define TIFFGetA(abgr)   (((abgr) >> 24) &	0xff)

     int TIFFReadRGBAImage(TIFF* tif, u_long width, u_long height, u_long* raster, int stopOnError)

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     TIFFReadRGBAImage reads a strip- or tile-based image into memory, storing
     the result	in the user supplied raster.  The raster is assumed to be an
     array of width times height 32-bit	entries, where width must be less than
     or	equal to the width of the image	(height	may be any non-zero size).  If
     the raster	dimensions are smaller than the	image, the image data is
     cropped to	the raster bounds.  If the raster height is greater than that
     of	the image, then	the image data are placed in the lower part of the
     raster.  (Note that the raster is assume to be organized such that	the
     pixel at location (x,y) is	raster[y*width+x]; with	the raster origin in
     the lower-left hand corner.)

     Raster pixels are 8-bit packed red, green,	blue, alpha samples.  The
     macros TIFFGetR, TIFFGetG,	TIFFGetB, and TIFFGetA should be used to
     access individual samples.	 Images	without	Associated Alpha matting
     information have a	constant Alpha of 1.0 (255).

     TIFFReadRGBAImage converts	non-8-bit images by scaling sample values.
     Palette, grayscale, bilevel, CMYK,	and YCbCr images are converted to RGB
     transparently.  Raster pixels are returned	uncorrected by any colorimetry
     information present in the	directory.

     The paramater stopOnError specifies how to	act if an error	is encountered
     while reading the image.  If stopOnError is non-zero, then	an error will
     terminate the operation; otherwise	TIFFReadRGBAImage will continue
     processing	data until all the possible data in the	image have been
     requested.

NOTES    [Toc]    [Back]

     In	C++ the	stopOnError parameter defaults to 0.

     Samples must be either 1, 2, 4, 8,	or 16 bits.  Colorimetric
     samples/pixel must	be either 1, 3,	or 4 (i.e.  SamplesPerPixel minus
     ExtraSamples).

     Palettte image colormaps that appear to be	incorrectly written as 8-bit
     values are	automatically scaled to	16-bits.

TIFFReadRGBAImage(3T)		     Image Format Library C++ Reference	Manual



     TIFFReadRGBAImage is just a wrapper around	the more general
     TIFFRGBAImage(3T) facilities.

RETURN VALUES    [Toc]    [Back]

     1 is returned if the image	was successfully read and converted.
     Otherwise,	0 is returned if an error was encountered and stopOnError is
     zero.

DIAGNOSTICS    [Toc]    [Back]

     All error messages	are directed to	the TIFFError(3T) routine.

     Sorry, can	not handle %d-bit pictures.  The image had BitsPerSample other
     than 1, 2,	4, 8, or 16.

     Sorry, can	not handle %d-channel images.  The image had SamplesPerPixel
     other than	1, 3, or 4.

     Missing needed "PhotometricInterpretation"	tag.  The image	did not	have a
     tag that describes	how to display the data.

     No	"PhotometricInterpretation" tag, assuming RGB.	The image was missing
     a tag that	describes how to display it, but because it has	3 or 4
     samples/pixel, it is assumed to be	RGB.

     No	"PhotometricInterpretation" tag, assuming min-is-black.	 The image was
     missing a tag that	describes how to display it, but because it has	1
     sample/pixel, it is assumed to be a grayscale or bilevel image.

     No	space for photometric conversion table.	 There was insufficient	memory
     for a table used to convert image samples to 8-bit	RGB.

     Missing required "Colormap" tag.  A Palette image did not have a required
     Colormap tag.

     No	space for tile buffer.	There was insufficient memory to allocate an
     i/o buffer.

     No	space for strip	buffer.	 There was insufficient	memory to allocate an
     i/o buffer.

     Can not handle format.  The image has a format (combination of
     BitsPerSample, SamplesPerPixel, and PhotometricInterpretation) that
     TIFFReadRGBAImage can not handle.

     No	space for B&W mapping table.  There was	insufficient memory to
     allocate a	table used to map grayscale data to RGB.

     No	space for Palette mapping table.  There	was insufficient memory	to
     allocate a	table used to map data to 8-bit	RGB.

BUGS    [Toc]    [Back]

     Orientations other	than bottom-left, or top-left are not handled
     correctly.
