NAME

TIFFReadFromUserBuffer - decode data using an user defined buffer

SYNOPSIS

#include <tiffio.h>



DESCRIPTION

Use the provided input buffer (inbuf, insize) and decompress it into (outbuf, outsize). This function replaces the use of TIFFReadEncodedStrip() <#c.TIFFReadEncodedStrip> / TIFFReadEncodedTile() <#c.TIFFReadEncodedTile> when the user can provide the buffer for the input data, for example when he wants to avoid libtiff to read the strile offset/count values from the StripOffsets / StripByteCounts or TileOffsets / TileByteCounts arrays. inbuf content must be writable (if bit reversal is needed).

RETURN VALUES

Returns 1 in case of success, 0 otherwise.

DIAGNOSTICS

All error messages are directed to the TIFFErrorExtR() <#c.TIFFErrorExtR> routine.
