70<p>The routines described here provide a high-level
71interface through which <small>TIFF</small> images may be
72read into memory. Images may be strip- or tile-based and
73have a variety of different characteristics: bits/sample,
74samples/pixel, photometric, etc. Decoding state is
75encapsulated in a <i>TIFFRGBAImage</i> structure making it
76possible to capture state for multiple images and quickly
77switch between them. The target raster format can be
78customized to a particular application&rsquo;s needs by
79installing custom routines that manipulate image data
80according to application requirements.</p>
81<!-- INDENTATION -->
82<p>The default usage for these routines is: check if an
83image can be processed using <i>TIFFRGBAImageOK</i>,
84construct a decoder state block using
85<i>TIFFRGBAImageBegin</i>, read and decode an image into a
86target raster using <i>TIFFRGBAImageGet</i>, and then
87release resources using <i>TIFFRGBAImageEnd</i>.
88<i>TIFFRGBAImageGet</i> can be called multiple times to
89decode an image using different state parameters. If
90multiple images are to be displayed and there is not enough
91space for each of the decoded rasters, multiple state blocks
92can be managed and then calls can be made to
93<i>TIFFRGBAImageGet</i> as needed to display an image.</p>
94<!-- INDENTATION -->
95<p>The generated raster is assumed to be an array of
96<i>width</i> times <i>height</i> 32-bit entries, where
97<i>width</i> must be less than or equal to the width of the
98image (<i>height</i> may be any non-zero size). If the
99raster dimensions are smaller than the image, the image data
100is cropped to the raster bounds. If the raster height is
101greater than that of the image, then the image data are
102placed in the lower part of the raster. (Note that the
103raster is assume to be organized such that the pixel at
104location (<i>x</i>,<i>y</i>) is
105<i>raster</i>[<i>y</i>*<i>width</i>+<i>x</i>]; with the
106raster origin in the <b>lower-left</b> hand corner.)</p>
107<!-- INDENTATION -->
108<p>Raster pixels are 8-bit packed red, green, blue, alpha
109samples. The macros <i>TIFFGetR</i>, <i>TIFFGetG</i>,
110<i>TIFFGetB</i>, and <i>TIFFGetA</i> should be used to
111access individual samples. Images without Associated Alpha
112matting information have a constant Alpha of 1.0 (255).</p>
113<!-- INDENTATION -->
114<p><i>TIFFRGBAImageGet</i> converts non-8-bit images by
115scaling sample values. Palette, grayscale, bilevel,
116<small>CMYK</small> , and YCbCr images are converted to
117<small>RGB</small> transparently. Raster pixels are returned
118uncorrected by any colorimetry information present in the
119directory.</p>
120<!-- INDENTATION -->
121<p>The parameter <i>stopOnError</i> specifies how to act if
122an error is encountered while reading the image. If
123<i>stopOnError</i> is non-zero, then an error will terminate
124the operation; otherwise <i>TIFFRGBAImageGet</i> will
125continue processing data until all the possible data in the
126image have been requested.</p>

137<p>To use the core support for reading and processing
138<small>TIFF</small> images, but write the resulting raster
139data in a different format one need only override the
140&lsquo;&lsquo;<i>put methods</i>&rsquo;&rsquo; used to store
141raster data. These methods are are defined in the
142<i>TIFFRGBAImage</i> structure and initially setup by
143<i>TIFFRGBAImageBegin</i> to point to routines that pack
144raster data in the default <small>ABGR</small> pixel format.
145Two different routines are used according to the physical
146organization of the image data in the file:
147<i>PlanarConfiguration</i>=1 (packed samples), and
148<i>PlanarConfiguration</i>=2 (separated samples). Note that
149this mechanism can be used to transform the data before
150storing it in the raster. For example one can convert data
151to colormap indices for display on a colormap display.</p>

162<p>It is simple to display an image as it is being read into
163memory by overriding the put methods as described above for
164supporting alternate raster formats. Simply keep a reference
165to the default put methods setup by
166<i>TIFFRGBAImageBegin</i> and then invoke them before or
167after each display operation. For example, the
168<i>tiffgt</i>(1) utility uses the following put method to
169update the display as the raster is being filled:</p>

171<pre>static void
172putContigAndDraw(TIFFRGBAImage* img, uint32* raster,
