NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

     XTIFFOpen,	XTIFFFdOpen - open an extended TIFF file for reading or
     writing

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

     #include <xtiffio.h>
     TIFF* XTIFFOpen(const char* filename, const char* mode)
     TIFF* XTIFFFdOpen(int fd, const char* filename, const char* mode)

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     The XTIFFOpen() and XTIFFFdOpen() open a given TIFF file. For
     XTIFFOpen(), the file to open is given by filename. Like XTIFFOpen(),
     XTIFFdOpen() requires the name of the underlying file in filename,	but
     assumes that the file has already been opened by the caller. The
     descriptor	for this opened	file is	given by fd. The file can be opened
     for reading, writing or appending as given	by mode	values of 'r', 'w' or
     'a' respectively.

     The XTIFFOpen() and XTIFFFdOpen() functions differ	from their
     TIFF
 analogs in	that they extend the set of
     tags interpreted by libtiff. This implementation adds support for the
     GeoTIFF tag set and is required to	support	libgeotiff.
