.TH TIFFReadScanline 3T "October 15, 1995"
|
|
.SH NAME
|
|
TIFFReadScanline \- read and decode a scanline of data from an open
|
|
.SM TIFF
|
|
file
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.B "#include <tiffio.h>"
|
|
.br
|
|
.B "int TIFFReadScanline(TIFF* tif, tdata_t buf, uint32 row, tsample_t sample)"
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
Read the data for the specified row into the (user supplied)
|
|
data buffer
|
|
.IR buf .
|
|
The data are returned decompressed and, in the native byte-
|
|
and bit-ordering, but are otherwise packed (see further below).
|
|
The buffer must be large enough to hold an entire scanline of data.
|
|
Applications should call the routine
|
|
.IR TIFFScanlineSize
|
|
to find out the size (in bytes) of a scanline buffer.
|
|
The
|
|
.I row
|
|
parameter is always used by
|
|
.IR TIFFReadScanline ;
|
|
the
|
|
.I sample
|
|
parameter is used only if data are organized in separate planes (\c
|
|
.IR PlanarConfiguration =2).
|
|
.SH NOTES
|
|
The library attempts to hide bit- and byte-ordering differences
|
|
between the image and the native machine by converting data
|
|
to the native machine order.
|
|
Bit reversal is done if the
|
|
.I FillOrder
|
|
tag is opposite to the native machine bit order.
|
|
16- and 32-bit samples are automatically byte-swapped if the
|
|
file was written with a byte order opposite to the native
|
|
machine byte order,
|
|
.PP
|
|
In C++ the
|
|
.I sample
|
|
parameter defaults to 0.
|
|
.SH "RETURN VALUES"
|
|
.IR TIFFReadScanline
|
|
returns \-1 if it detects an error; otherwise 1 is returned.
|
|
.SH DIAGNOSTICS
|
|
All error messages are directed to the
|
|
.IR TIFFError (3T)
|
|
routine.
|
|
.PP
|
|
.BR "Compression algorithm does not support random access" .
|
|
Data was requested in a non-sequential order from a file that
|
|
uses a compression algorithm and that has
|
|
.I RowsPerStrip
|
|
greater than one.
|
|
That is, data in the image is stored in a compressed form,
|
|
and with multiple rows packed into a strip.
|
|
In this case, the library does not support random access to the data.
|
|
The data should either be accessed sequentially, or the file
|
|
should be converted so that each strip is made up of one row
|
|
of data.
|
|
.SH BUGS
|
|
Reading subsampled YCbCR data does not work correctly
|
|
because, for
|
|
.IR PlanarConfiguration =2
|
|
the size of a scanline is not calculated on a per-sample basis,
|
|
and for
|
|
.IR PlanarConfiguration =1
|
|
the library does not unpack the block-interleaved samples; use
|
|
the strip- and tile-based interfaces to read these formats.
