22 // Abstract Pixel API
23 //
24 // We need to access our raw bitmap data (1) portably and (2) efficiently.
25 // We do this using a two-dimensional "iteration" interface. Performance
26 // is extremely important here: these functions will be called hundreds
27 // of thousands of times in a row, and even small inefficiencies will
28 // make applications seem slow.
29 //
30 // We can't always rely on inline functions, because not all compilers actually
31 // bother to inline them unless we crank the optimization levels way up.
32 // Therefore, we also provide macros to wring maximum speed out of compiler
33 // unconditionally (e.g. even in debug builds). Of course, if the performance
34 // isn't absolutely crucial for you you shouldn't be using them but the inline
35 // functions instead.

46 {

48 return;
49 }
50
51 if ( data.GetWidth() < 20 || data.GetHeight() < 20 )
52 {
53 ... complain: the bitmap it too small ...
54 return;
55 }
56
57 PixelData::Iterator p(data);
58
59 // we draw a (10, 10)-(20, 20) rect manually using the given r, g, b

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

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

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