.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
The following routines are used by the library to swap
|
||
|
16- and 32-bit data and to reverse the order of bits in bytes.
|
||
|
.PP
|
||
|
.IR TIFFSwabShort
|
||
|
and
|
||
|
.IR TIFFSwabLong
|
||
|
swap the bytes in a single 16-bit and 32-bit item, respectively.
|
||
|
.IR TIFFSwabArrayOfShort
|
||
|
and
|
||
|
.IR TIFFSwabArrayOfLong
|
||
|
swap the bytes in an array of 16-bit and 32-bit items, respectively.
|
||
|
.PP
|
||
|
.IR TIFFReverseBits
|
||
|
replaces each byte in
|
||
|
.I data
|
||
|
with the equivalent bit-reversed value.
|
||
|
This operation is done with a lookup table,
|
||
|
.I TIFFBitRevTable
|
||
|
which is declared public.
|
||
|
A second table,
|
||
|
.I TIFFNoBitRevTable
|
||
|
is also declared public; it is a lookup table that
|
||
|
can be used as an
|
||
|
.IR "identity function" ;
|
||
|
i.e.
|
||
|
.IR "TIFFNoBitRevTable[n] == n" .
|
||
|
.SH DIAGNOSTICS
|
||
|
None.
|
||
|
