TIFFWriteEncodedStrip(3TIFF) Image Format Library C++ Reference Manual
NAMETIFFWritedEncodedStrip - compress and write a strip of data to an open
TIFF file
SYNOPSIS
#include <tiffio.h>
tsize_t TIFFWriteEncodedStrip(TIFF *tif, tstrip_t strip, tdata_t buf
DESCRIPTION
Compress size bytes of raw data from buf and write the result to the
specified strip; replacing any previously written data. Note that the
value of strip is a ``raw strip number.'' That is, the caller must take
into account whether or not the data are organized in separate planes
(PlanarConfiguration=2).
NOTES
The library writes encoded data using the native machine byte order.
Correctly implemented TIFF readers are expected to do any necessary
byte-swapping to correctly process image data with BitsPerSample greater
than 8.
The strip number must be valid according to the current settings of the
ImageLength and RowsPerStrip tags. An image may be dynamically grown by
increasing the value of ImageLength prior to each call to
TIFFWriteEncodedStrip.
RETURN VALUES-1 is returned if an error was encountered. Otherwise, the value of size
is returned.
DIAGNOSTICS
All error messages are directed to the TIFFError(3TIFF) routine.
%s: File not open for writing. The file was opened for reading, not
writing.
Can not write scanlines to a tiled image. The image is assumed to be
organized in tiles because the TileWidth and TileLength tags have been
set with TIFFSetField(3TIFF).
%s: Must set "ImageWidth" before writing data. The image's width has not
be set before the first write. See TIFFSetField(3TIFF) for information on
how to do this.
%s: Must set "PlanarConfiguration" before writing data. The organization
of data has not be defined before the first write. See
TIFFSetField(3TIFF) for information on how to do this.
%s: No space for strip arrays". There was not enough space for the
arrays that hold strip offsets and byte counts.
