IG_load_CCITT

This function has been deprecated and will be removed from the public API in a future release. Please use IG_load_raw_mem instead.

Declaration:

	Copy Code
AT_ERRCOUNT ACCUAPI IG_load_CCITT_mem( LPVOID lpImage, AT_UINT nSize, AT_DIMENSION nWidth, AT_DIMENSION nHeight, AT_MODE nType, AT_MODE nFillOrder, LPHIGEAR lphIGear );

Arguments:

Name	Type	Description
lpImage	LPVOID	Memory buffer containing raw Fax data to be loaded.
nSize	AT_UINT	Size of the memory buffer lpImage.
nWidth	AT_DIMENSION	Number of pixels in each row of data to be read.
nHeight	AT_DIMENSION	Number of rows of data.
nType	AT_MODE	Specifies the type of compression: IG_COMPRESSION_CCITT_G3, IG_COMPRESSION_CCITT_G4 or IG_COMPRESSION_G32D. There is no default for this property.
nFillOrder	AT_MODE	IG_FILL_MSB or IG_FILL_LSB, specifying whether the most-significant-bit-first or least-significant-bit-first. There is no default for this property.
lphIGear	LPHIGEAR	Pointer to HIGEAR variable to return a newly created image.

Return Value:

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

Supported Raster Image Formats:

All pixel formats supported by ImageGear Professional.

Example:

	Copy Code
HIGEAR hIGear = 0; // Will receive HIGEAR image handle AT_BYTE* lpImage; // Memory buffer to keep an image AT_INT fileSize; // Size of the memory buffer FILE* fd = NULL; // File Descriptor AT_ERRCOUNT nErrcount; // Returned count of errors / // Open a file and get its size fopen_s(&fd, "Group4.raw", "rb"); if(fd != NULL) { fseek(fd, 0, SEEK_END); fileSize = (AT_UINT)ftell(fd); fseek(fd, 0, SEEK_SET); // Allocate memory and read the image into the memory buffer lpImage = (AT_BYTE)malloc(fileSize); fread(lpImage, 1, fileSize, fd); // File is no longer needed - close it fclose(fd); // Load image from the memory nErrcount = IG_load_CCITT_mem(lpImage, fileSize, 2320, 3408, IG_COMPRESSION_CCITT_G4, IG_FILL_MSB, &hIGear ); // Delete memory buffer free(lpImage); //... // Destroy the image if(IG_image_is_valid(hIGear)) { IG_image_delete(hIGear); } }

FILE* fd = NULL;        // File Descriptor
AT_ERRCOUNT nErrcount;  // Returned count of errors */

// Open a file and get its size
fopen_s(&fd, "Group4.raw", "rb");
if(fd != NULL)
{
    fseek(fd, 0, SEEK_END);
    fileSize = (AT_UINT)ftell(fd);
    fseek(fd, 0, SEEK_SET);
    // Allocate memory and read the image into the memory buffer
    lpImage = (AT_BYTE*)malloc(fileSize);
    fread(lpImage, 1, fileSize, fd);
    // File is no longer needed - close it
    fclose(fd);
    
    // Load image from the memory
    nErrcount = IG_load_CCITT_mem(lpImage, fileSize, 2320, 3408,
        IG_COMPRESSION_CCITT_G4, IG_FILL_MSB, &hIGear );
    // Delete memory buffer
    free(lpImage);

    //...

    // Destroy the image
    if(IG_image_is_valid(hIGear))
    {
        IG_image_delete(hIGear);
    }
}

Remarks:

This function creates an ImageGear image from raw CCITT Compressed data located in memory.

This function operates similarly to function IG_load_CCITT_FD. Note that lpImage must point to the start of the actual data (not to the start of any header information that may be present).

The functionality of this API call has been upgraded and supported by the new function IG_load_raw_mem. The reason that this new function has been created is that the old function restricted you to loading raw images that are stored with CCITT formatting.

In the interest of backward compatibility, we have left the old function in its original form and have retained support for it. If you have already used the old function in your code, it is not mandatory that you modify your code, but it is recommended. Consider using IG_load_raw_mem instead.
