25 // We need to access our raw bitmap data (1) portably and (2) efficiently.
26 // We do this using a two-dimensional "iteration" interface. Performance
27 // is extremely important here: these functions will be called hundreds
28 // of thousands of times in a row, and even small inefficiencies will
29 // make applications seem slow.
30 //
31 // We can't always rely on inline functions, because not all compilers actually
32 // bother to inline them unless we crank the optimization levels way up.
33 // Therefore, we also provide macros to wring maximum speed out of compiler
34 // unconditionally (e.g. even in debug builds). Of course, if the performance
35 // isn't absolutely crucial for you you shouldn't be using them but the inline
36 // functions instead.

47 {

49 return;

51
52 if ( data.GetWidth() < 20 || data.GetHeight() < 20 )
53 {
54 ... complain: the bitmap it too small ...
55 return;

58 PixelData::Iterator p(data);

91 wxPixelFormat is a template class describing the bitmap data format. It
92 contains the constants describing the format of pixel data, but does not
93 describe how the entire bitmap is stored (i.e. top-to-bottom,
94 bottom-to-top, ...). It is also a "traits"-like class, i.e. it only
95 contains some constants and maybe static methods but nothing more, so it
96 can be safely used without incurring any overhead as all accesses to it are
97 done at compile-time.
98
99 Current limitations: we don't support RAGABA and ARAGAB formats supported
100 by Mac OS X. If there is sufficient interest, these classes could be
101 extended to deal with them. Neither do we support alpha channel having
102 different representation from the RGB ones (happens under QNX/Photon I
103 think), but again this could be achieved with some small extra effort.
104
105 Template parameters are:
106 - type of a single pixel component
107 - size of the single pixel in bits
108 - indices of red, green and blue pixel components inside the pixel
109 - index of the alpha component or -1 if none
110 - type which can contain the full pixel value (all channels)

264 wxPixelData represents the entire bitmap data, i.e. unlike
265 wxPixelFormat (which it uses) it also stores the global bitmap
266 characteristics such as its size, inter-row separation and so on.
267
268 Because of this it can be used to move the pixel iterators (which don't
269 have enough information about the bitmap themselves). This may seem a bit
270 unnatural but must be done in this way to keep the iterator objects as
271 small as possible for maximum efficiency as otherwise they wouldn't be put
272 into the CPU registers by the compiler any more.
273
274 Implementation note: we use the standard workaround for lack of partial
275 template specialization support in VC (both 6 and 7): instead of partly
276 specializing the class Foo<T, U> for some T we introduce FooOut<T> and
277 FooIn<U> nested in it, make Foo<T, U> equivalent to FooOut<T>::FooIn<U> and
278 fully specialize FooOut.
279
280 Also note that this class doesn't have any default definition because we
281 can't really do anything without knowing the exact image class. We do
282 provide wxPixelDataBase to make it simpler to write new wxPixelData
283 specializations.

742 wxPixel::Iterator represents something which points to the pixel data and
743 allows us to iterate over it. In the simplest case of wxBitmap it is,
744 indeed, just a pointer, but it can be something more complicated and,
745 moreover, you are free to specialize it for other image classes and bitmap
746 formats.
747
748 Note that although it would have been much more intuitive to have a real
749 class here instead of what we have now, this class would need two template
750 parameters, and this can't be done because we'd need compiler support for
751 partial template specialization then and neither VC6 nor VC7 provide it.
