getImage Method

Returns a reference to raw image store. Should be used to gain direct access to image pixels.

Syntax

public abstract ImGearArrayRef getImage()

ImGearArrayRef structure instance.

May be used to obtain direct access to the entire image store.

Structure of image store depends on channels structure and may differ for different DIBs.

Rasters in ImageGear for Java pixel storage are DWORD-aligned.

Raster size for standard DIBs (not run-ends) in ImageGear for Java can be calculated using the following formula:

((Width * BitsPerChannel * ChannelCount + 31) & ~31) / BitsPerChannel

Note that the +31 and & ~31 indicate DWORD alignment.
