IG_fltr_compressionlist

This function returns the list of compressions available for saving the specified image to a particular file format. This is an obsolete function, see remarks.

Declaration:

	Copy Code
AT_ERRCOUNT ACCUAPI IG_fltr_compressionlist_get( LPAT_DIB lpDIB, AT_MODE nFormatID, LPAT_MODE lpComprList, UINT nCListSize, LPUINT lpnCListCount );

Arguments:

Name	Type	Description
lpDIB	LPAT_DIB	Pointer to the AT_DIB structure that contains image parameters. If NULL, then this function returns all possible compressions.
nFormatID	AT_MODE	File format identifier. See enumIGFormats for possible values.
lpComprList	LPAT_MODE	Pointer to the array to return the list of compression constants to. See enumIGCompressions for possible values. Set to NULL if you only need to obtain the number of available compressions.
nCListSize	UINT	Size of the lpCompList array.
lpnCListCount	LPUINT	Pointer to a variable which will receive the actual number of compression constants.

Return Value:

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

Supported Raster Image Formats:

Indexed RGB - 1, 4, 8 bpp;
Grayscale - 9...16 bpp;
RGB - 24 bpp;
CMYK - 32 bpp.

Sample:

None
