Get the default value of a tag of type long.

Declaration:

 
Copy Code
AT_ERRCOUNT ACCUAPI IG_ISIS_tag_get_long_default(
        HISISDRV hDriver,
        AT_MODE nTag,
        WORD wIndex,
        LPLONG lplValue
);

Arguments:

Name Type Description
hDriver HISISDRV The handle to the driver.
nTag AT_MODE Specifies the type long tag for which to return the default value.
wIndex WORD Specifies the index of the element to get. Most tags have only one element, in which case wIndex must be zero. Use IG_ISIS_tag_get_length_default to determine how many elements a tag contains.
lplValue LPLONG Points to the default value of the tag after this function completes.

Return Value:

Returns the number of ImageGear errors that occurred during this function call. If there are no errors, the return value is IGE_SUCCESS.

Supported Raster Image Formats:

This function does not process image pixels.

Remarks:

The IG_ISIS_tag_get_long_default function retrieves the long value that is the default value of the specified tag. The default value of a tag is specified in the driver.

Use IG_ISIS_tag_get_long_default to retrieve the default value of the type long tag specified in nTag. Use IG_ISIS_tag_get_length_default to get the number of elements in the tag. If the tag has only one element, wIndex must be zero. If the tag has multiple elements (such as IG_ISIS_TAG_GAMMA_TABLE1), loop on IG_ISIS_tag_get_long_default to obtain all elements of the default value of the tag.

Use of IG_ISIS_tag_get_long_default on a tag other than one of type long, short, or byte is undefined. At best, this will cause an invalid return value or a operating system error message, and at worst will cause the system to crash. Passing anything other than a pointer to a long to lplValue, even if the tag is of type byte or short, is also undefined. On some systems, a proper value may be returned, but memory corruption will occur on others.
