.TH TIFFWriteTile 3TIFF "November 29, 1999" "libtiff"
.SH NAME
TIFFWriteTile \- encode and write a tile of data to an open
.SM TIFF
file
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B "#include <tiffio.h>"
.sp
.BI "tsize_t TIFFWriteTile(TIFF *" tif ", tdata_t " buf ", uint32 " x ", uint32 " y ", uint32 " z ", tsample_t " sample ")"
.SH DESCRIPTION
Write the data for the tile
.I containing
the specified coordinates. The data in
.I buf
are is (potentially) compressed, and written to the indicated file, normally
being appended to the end of the file. The buffer must be contain an entire
tile of data. Applications should call the routine
.IR TIFFTileSize
to find out the size (in bytes) of a tile buffer. The
.I x
and
.I y
parameters are always used by
.IR TIFFWriteTile .
The
.I z
parameter is used if the image is deeper than 1 slice (\c
.IR ImageDepth >1).
The
.I sample
parameter is used only if data are organized in separate planes (\c
.IR PlanarConfiguration =2).
.SH "RETURN VALUES"
.IR TIFFWriteTile
returns \-1 if it detects an error; otherwise the number of bytes in the tile
is returned.
.SH DIAGNOSTICS
All error messages are directed to the
.BR TIFFError (3TIFF)
routine.
