API Reference Guide > ISIS Component API Reference > ISIS Component Functions Reference > Tag Functions > IG_ISIS_tag_restore_file

Restore saved tag values from a file.

Declaration:

 
Copy Code
AT_ERRCOUNT ACCUAPI IG_ISIS_tag_restore_file(
        HISISDRV hDriver,
        LPSTR lpszSection,
        LPSTR lpszFileName
);

Arguments:

Name Type Description
hDriver HISISDRV The handle to the driver.
lpszSection LPSTR Specifies the name of the [Section] from which to restore the previously-saved values of all tags. [Section] is a standard *.INI file section name of the application's choosing. The name specified will be automatically enclosed in square brackets-do not include them in the lpszSection string. Note that if lpszSection is zero, the name pointed to by hDriver will be used as the section name.
lpszFileName LPSTR Specifies the name of the file from which to restore the tag values. If lpszFileName is zero, the name SETSCAN.INI is used, but an application-specific filename is recommended.

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_restore_file function restores the values of all tags from a specified file. This allows an application to implement a Restore Settings function that restores previously-saved settings in one operation. This function is only supported on Windows platforms.

Use IG_ISIS_tag_restore_file to restore the values of all tags that were previously saved in a file by a call to IG_ISIS_tag_save_file. Use this function to give the application the capability to restore the saved scanner settings.

By default, the settings file is read from the current Windows directory (for example, C:\WINDOWS.). Passing a full path name specification in lpszFileName overrides this default.

Example:

The following call restores the settings previously saved by IG_ISIS_tag_save_file for the particular scanner whose driver is currently loaded:

 
Copy Code
      IG_ISIS_tag_restore_file(hDriver, 0, "PIXVIEW.INI");
