Member Function Documentation

virtual bool ImageIO::supportsExtension (  const char *  extension  )  [pure virtual]

Determine if this plugin supports the given extension. Parameters: [in]  extension  A lowercase string extension (e.g. "tif") Returns: True if the plugin supports this extension, false otherwise. Implemented in PPMIO, and TIFFIO.

virtual void ImageIO::registerExtensions (  DynArray< std::string > &  extensions  )  [pure virtual]

Build a list of all the extensions this plugin can support Parameters: [out]  extensions  A DynArray to hold the list of extensions. Returns: The return is by reference (extensions parameter). Implemented in PPMIO, and TIFFIO.

virtual bool ImageIO::readImage (  const char *  filename, Image *&  result )  [pure virtual]

Given an Image and a filename, try to create an Image. The system will guarantee that the extension is supported by this plugin. Parameters: [in]  filename  The name of the file to read from. [out]  result  The resulting Image. Memory has to be allocated. Returns: readImage returns true if everything went smoothly. Implemented in PPMIO, and TIFFIO.

virtual bool ImageIO::writeImage (  const char *  filename, const Image *  image )  [pure virtual]

Given an Image and a filename, try to write the Image to disk. The system will guarantee that the extension is supported by this plugin. Parameters: [in]  filename  The name of the file to write to. [in]  image  The Image data to write out. Returns: writeImage returns true if everything went smoothly. Implemented in PPMIO, and TIFFIO.
