| 27 | .SH NAME |
| 28 | TIFFWriteTile \- encode and write a tile of data to an open |
| 29 | .SM TIFF |
| 30 | file |
| 31 | .SH SYNOPSIS |
| 32 | .B "#include <tiffio.h>" |
| 33 | .sp |
| 34 | .BI "tsize_t TIFFWriteTile(TIFF *" tif ", tdata_t " buf ", uint32 " x ", uint32 " y ", uint32 " z ", tsample_t " sample ")" |
| 35 | .SH DESCRIPTION |
| 36 | Write the data for the tile |
| 37 | .I containing |
| 38 | the specified coordinates. The data in |
| 39 | .I buf |
| 40 | are is (potentially) compressed, and written to the indicated file, normally |
| 41 | being appended to the end of the file. The buffer must be contain an entire |
| 42 | tile of data. Applications should call the routine |
| 43 | .IR TIFFTileSize |
| 44 | to find out the size (in bytes) of a tile buffer. The |
| 45 | .I x |
| 46 | and |
| 47 | .I y |
| 48 | parameters are always used by |
| 49 | .IR TIFFWriteTile . |
| 50 | The |
| 51 | .I z |
| 52 | parameter is used if the image is deeper than 1 slice (\c |
| 53 | .IR ImageDepth >1). |
| 54 | The |
| 55 | .I sample |
| 56 | parameter is used only if data are organized in separate planes (\c |
| 57 | .IR PlanarConfiguration =2). |
| 58 | .SH "RETURN VALUES" |
| 59 | .IR TIFFWriteTile |
| 60 | returns \-1 if it detects an error; otherwise the number of bytes in the tile |
| 61 | is returned. |
| 62 | .SH DIAGNOSTICS |
| 63 | All error messages are directed to the |
| 64 | .BR TIFFError (3TIFF) |
| 65 | routine. |
