NAME

6       TIFFReadEncodedStrip  -  read  and  decode a strip of data from an open
7       TIFF file
8

SYNOPSIS

10       #include <tiffio.h>
11
12       tmsize_t TIFFReadEncodedStrip(TIFF *tif, uint32 strip, void  *buf,  tm‐
13       size_t size)
14

DESCRIPTION

16       Read  the  specified strip of data and place up to size bytes of decom‐
17       pressed information in the (user supplied) data buffer.
18

NOTES

20       The value of strip is a ``raw strip number.''  That is, the caller must
21       take  into  account  whether  or not the data are organized in separate
22       planes (PlanarConfiguration=2).  To read a full strip of data the  data
23       buffer  should typically be at least as large as the number returned by
24       TIFFStripSize(3TIFF).  If the -1 passed in size  parameter,  the  whole
25       strip  will be read. You should be sure you have enough space allocated
26       for the buffer.
27
28       The library attempts to hide bit- and byte-ordering differences between
29       the  image  and the native machine by converting data to the native ma‐
30       chine order.  Bit reversal is done if the FillOrder tag is opposite  to
31       the  native machine bit order. 16- and 32-bit samples are automatically
32       byte-swapped if the file was written with a byte order opposite to  the
33       native machine byte order,
34

RETURN VALUES

36       The actual number of bytes of data that were placed in buf is returned;
37       TIFFReadEncodedStrip returns -1 if an error was encountered.

DIAGNOSTICS

40       All error messages are directed to the TIFFError(3TIFF) routine.
