25.TH TIFFReadTile 3TIFF "December 16, 1991" "libtiff"
26.SH NAME
27TIFFReadTile \- read and decode a tile of data from an open
28.SM TIFF
29file
30.SH SYNOPSIS
31.B "#include <tiffio.h>"
32.sp
33.BI "tsize_t TIFFReadTile(TIFF *" tif ", tdata_t " buf ", uint32 " x ", uint32 " y ", uint32 " z ", tsample_t " sample ")"
34.SH DESCRIPTION
35Return the data for the tile
36.I containing
37the specified coordinates. The data placed in
38.I buf
39are returned decompressed and, typically, in the native byte- and
40bit-ordering, but are otherwise packed (see further below). The buffer must be
41large enough to hold an entire tile of data. Applications should call the
42routine
43.IR TIFFTileSize
44to find out the size (in bytes) of a tile buffer. The
45.I x
46and
47.I y
48parameters are always used by
49.IR TIFFReadTile .
50The
51.I z
52parameter is used if the image is deeper than 1 slice (\c
53.IR ImageDepth >1).
54The
55.I sample
56parameter is used only if data are organized in separate planes (\c
57.IR PlanarConfiguration =2).
58.SH NOTES
59The library attempts to hide bit- and byte-ordering differences between the
60image and the native machine by converting data to the native machine order.
61Bit reversal is done if the
62.I FillOrder
63tag is opposite to the native machine bit order. 16- and 32-bit samples are
64automatically byte-swapped if the file was written with a byte order opposite
65to the native machine byte order,
66.SH "RETURN VALUES"
67.IR TIFFReadTile
68returns \-1 if it detects an error; otherwise the number of bytes in the
69decoded tile is returned.
70.SH DIAGNOSTICS
71All error messages are directed to the
72.BR TIFFError (3TIFF)
73routine.
