25.TH TIFFBUFFER 3TIFF "November 1, 2005" "libtiff"
26.SH NAME
27TIFFReadBufferSetup, TIFFWriteBufferSetup \- I/O buffering control routines
28.SH SYNOPSIS
29.nf
30.B "#include <tiffio.h>"
31.sp
32.BI "int TIFFReadBufferSetup(TIFF *" tif ", tdata_t " buffer ", tsize_t " size ");"
33.BI "int TIFFWriteBufferSetup(TIFF *" tif ", tdata_t " buffer ", tsize_t " size ");"

35.SH DESCRIPTION
36The following routines are provided for client-control of the I/O buffers used
37by the library. Applications need never use these routines; they are provided
38only for ``intelligent clients'' that wish to optimize memory usage and/or
39eliminate potential copy operations that can occur when working with images
40that have data stored without compression.
41.PP
42.I TIFFReadBufferSetup
43sets up the data buffer used to read raw (encoded) data from a file. If the
44specified pointer is
45.SM NULL
46(zero), then a buffer of the appropriate size is allocated. Otherwise the
47caller must guarantee that the buffer is large enough to hold any individual
48strip of raw data.
49.I TIFFReadBufferSetup
50returns a non-zero value if the setup was successful and zero otherwise.
51.PP
52.I TIFFWriteBufferSetup
53sets up the data buffer used to write raw (encoded) data to a file. If the
54specified
55.I size
56is \-1 then the buffer size is selected to hold a complete tile or strip, or
57at least 8 kilobytes, whichever is greater. If the specified
58.I buffer
59is
60.SM NULL
61(zero), then a buffer of the appropriate size is dynamically allocated.
62.I TIFFWriteBufferSetup
63returns a non-zero value if the setup was successful and zero otherwise.
64.SH DIAGNOSTICS
65.BR "%s: No space for data buffer at scanline %ld" .
66.I TIFFReadBufferSetup
67was unable to dynamically allocate space for a data buffer.
68.PP
69.BR "%s: No space for output buffer" .
70.I TIFFWriteBufferSetup
71was unable to dynamically allocate space for a data buffer.
