<i>TIFFGetField</i> returns the value of a tag or pseudo-tag
associated with the the current directory of the open
<small>TIFF</small> file <i>tif</i>. (A <i>pseudo-tag</i> is
a parameter that is used to control the operation of the
<small>TIFF</small> library but whose value is not read or
written to the underlying file.) The file must have been
previously opened with <i>TIFFOpen</i>(3T). The tag is
identified by <i>tag</i>, one of the values defined in the
include file <b>tiff.h</b> (see also the table below). The
type and number of values returned is dependent on the tag
being requested. The programming interface uses a variable
argument list as prescribed by the <i>stdarg</i>(3)
interface. The returned values should only be interpreted if
<i>TIFFGetField</i> returns 1.</td></table>

<i>TIFFVGetField</i> is functionally equivalent to
2002-10-07 09:47:36 -04:00
<i>TIFFGetField</i> except that it takes a pointer to a
variable argument list. <i>TIFFVGetField</i> is useful for
layering interfaces on top of the functionality provided by
2003-11-27 10:07:01 -05:00
<i>TIFFGetField</i>.</td></table>

a tag is not defined in the current directory and it has a
2003-11-27 10:07:01 -05:00
default value, then the default value is
returned.</td></table>

The tags understood by <i>libtiff</i>, the number of
2002-10-07 09:47:36 -04:00
parameter values, and the types for the returned values are
shown below. The data types are specified as in C and
correspond to the types used to specify tag values to
<i>TIFFSetField</i>(3T). Remember that <i>TIFFGetField</i>
returns parameter values, so all the listed data types are
pointers to storage where values should be returned. Consult
the <small>TIFF</small> specification for information on the
2003-11-27 10:07:01 -05:00
meaning of each tag and their possible values.</td></table>
