44.SH DESCRIPTION
45The following routines are used by the library to swap
4616- and 32-bit data and to reverse the order of bits in bytes.
47.PP
48.IR TIFFSwabShort
49and
50.IR TIFFSwabLong
51swap the bytes in a single 16-bit and 32-bit item, respectively.
52.IR TIFFSwabArrayOfShort
53and
54.IR TIFFSwabArrayOfLong
55swap the bytes in an array of 16-bit and 32-bit items, respectively.
56.PP
57.IR TIFFReverseBits
58replaces each byte in
59.I data
60with the equivalent bit-reversed value. This operation is performed with a
61lookup table, which is returned using the
62.IR TIFFGetBitRevTable
63function.
64.I reversed
65parameter specifies which table should be returned. Supply
66.I 1
67if you want bit reversal table. Supply
68.I 0
69to get the table that do not reverse bit values. It is a lookup table that can
70be used as an
71.IR "identity function" ;
72i.e.
73.IR "TIFFNoBitRevTable[n] == n" .
74.SH DIAGNOSTICS
75None.
