NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

     TIFFReverseBits, TIFFSwabShort, TIFFSwabLong, TIFFSwabArrayOfShort,
     TIFFSwabArrayOfLong - byte- and bit-swapping routines

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

     #include <tiffio.h>
     const unsigned char* TIFFGetBitRevTable(int reversed);
     void TIFFReverseBits(u_char* data,	unsigned long nbytes)
     void TIFFSwabShort(uint16*	data)
     void TIFFSwabLong(uint32* data)
     void TIFFSwabArrayOfShort(uint16* data, unsigned long nshorts)
     void TIFFSwabArrayOfLong(uint32* data, unsigned long nlongs)

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     The following routines are	used by	the library to swap 16-	and 32-bit
     data and to reverse the order of bits in bytes.

     TIFFSwabShort and TIFFSwabLong swap the bytes in a	single 16-bit and 32-
     bit item, respectively.  TIFFSwabArrayOfShort and TIFFSwabArrayOfLong
     swap the bytes in an array	of 16-bit and 32-bit items, respectively.

     TIFFReverseBits replaces each byte	in data	with the equivalent bitreversed
 value.  This operation is	done with a lookup table,
     TIFFBitRevTable which is declared public.	A second table,
     TIFFNoBitRevTable is also declared	public;	it is a	lookup table that can
     be	used as	an identity function; i.e.  TIFFNoBitRevTable[n] == n.
