IG_fltr_ctrl

This function allows you to set a control parameter value for the specified format filter.

Declaration:

	Copy Code
AT_ERRCODE ACCUAPI IG_fltr_ctrl_set( DWORD dwFormatID, const LPCHAR lpcsCtrlName, LPVOID lpValue, DWORD dwValueSize );

Arguments:

Name	Type	Description
dwFormatID	DWORD	A constant indicating the format filter for which the control parameter should be set. See enumIGFormats for possible values.
lpcsCtrlName	const LPCHAR	Specifies the name of control parameter you want to set. The list of names of supported control parameters can be obtained using IG_fltr_ctrl_list.
lpValue	LPVOID	Specifies the new value for the control parameter. See Remarks.
dwValueSize	DWORD	Specifies the size (in bytes) of the control parameter value.

Return Value:

Returns 0 if successful. Otherwise, returns the number of ImageGear errors that occurred during this function call.

Supported Raster Image Formats:

This function does not process image pixels.

Sample:

Filter, Vector, ASCII.

Example:

	Copy Code
AT_ERRCOUNT nErrcount; // Count of returned errors on stack DWORD bufferSize = 32767; // Get a type and a size of the control parameter nErrcount = IG_fltr_ctrl_set(IG_FORMAT_TIF, "BUFFER_SIZE", (LPVOID)(AT_UINT)bufferSize, sizeof(bufferSize));

Copy Code

AT_ERRCOUNT nErrcount;            // Count of returned errors on stack
DWORD bufferSize = 32767;
// Get a type and a size of the control parameter
nErrcount = IG_fltr_ctrl_set(IG_FORMAT_TIF, "BUFFER_SIZE", (LPVOID)(AT_UINT)bufferSize, sizeof(bufferSize));

Remarks:

See ImageGear Supported File Formats Reference section for description of all control parameters supported by ImageGear file format filters.

Use IG_fltr_ctrl_list to get the list of supported control parameters for a specific format. Use IG_fltr_ctrl_get to get the information about a specific control parameter, as well as its current value.

The rules for passing values to this function are as follows:

For platform-dependent integers AT_INT and AT_UINT, as well as types derived from them, such as AT_DIMENSION, lpValue should contain the actual value.
For other types, if the value size is less than or equal to sizeof(DWORD), then lpValue should contain the actual value; otherwise it should contain a pointer to the value.
