NAME
TIFFReadRGBAStrip - read and decode an image strip into a
fixed-format raster
SYNOPSIS
#include <tiffio.h>
#define TIFFGetR(abgr) ((abgr) & 0xff)
#define TIFFGetG(abgr) (((abgr) >> 8) & 0xff)
#define TIFFGetB(abgr) (((abgr) >> 16) & 0xff)
#define TIFFGetA(abgr) (((abgr) >> 24) & 0xff)
int TIFFReadRGBAStrip(TIFF *tif, uint32 row, uint32 *raster
DESCRIPTION
TIFFReadRGBAStrip reads a single strip of a strip-based
image into memory, storing the result in the user supplied
RGBA raster. The raster is assumed to be an array of width
times rowsperstrip 32-bit entries, where width is the width
of the image (TIFFTAG_IMAGEWIDTH) and rowsperstrip is the
maximum lines in a strip (TIFFTAG_ROWSPERSTRIP).
The row value should be the row of the first row in the
strip (strip * rowsperstrip, zero based).
Note that the raster is assume to be organized such that the
pixel at location (x,y) is raster[y*width+x]; with the ras-
ter origin in the lower-left hand corner of the strip. That
is bottom to top organization. When reading a partial last
strip in the file the last line of the image will begin at
the beginning of the buffer.
Raster pixels are 8-bit packed red, green, blue, alpha sam-
ples. The macros TIFFGetR, TIFFGetG, TIFFGetB, and TIFFGetA
should be used to access individual samples. Images without
Associated Alpha matting information have a constant Alpha
of 1.0 (255).
See the TIFFRGBAImage(3TIFF) page for more details on how
various image types are converted to RGBA values.
NOTES
Samples must be either 1, 2, 4, 8, or 16 bits. Colorimetric
samples/pixel must be either 1, 3, or 4 (i.e. SamplesPer-
Pixel minus ExtraSamples).
Palette image colormaps that appear to be incorrectly writ-
ten as 8-bit values are automatically scaled to 16-bits.

TIFFReadRGBAStrip is just a wrapper around the more general
TIFFRGBAImage(3TIFF) facilities. It's main advantage over
the similar TIFFReadRGBAImage() function is that for large
images a single buffer capable of holding the whole image
doesn't need to be allocated, only enough for one strip.
The TIFFReadRGBATile() function does a similar operation for
tiled images.
RETURN VALUES
1 is returned if the image was successfully read and con-
verted. Otherwise, 0 is returned if an error was encoun-
tered.
DIAGNOSTICS
All error messages are directed to the TIFFError(3TIFF) rou-
tine.
Sorry, can not handle %d-bit pictures. The image had
BitsPerSample other than 1, 2, 4, 8, or 16.
Sorry, can not handle %d-channel images. The image had Sam-
plesPerPixel other than 1, 3, or 4.
Missing needed "PhotometricInterpretation" tag. The image
did not have a tag that describes how to display the data.
No "PhotometricInterpretation" tag, assuming RGB. The image
was missing a tag that describes how to display it, but
because it has 3 or 4 samples/pixel, it is assumed to be
RGB.
No "PhotometricInterpretation" tag, assuming min-is-black.
The image was missing a tag that describes how to display
it, but because it has 1 sample/pixel, it is assumed to be a
grayscale or bilevel image.
No space for photometric conversion table. There was insuf-
ficient memory for a table used to convert image samples to
8-bit RGB.
Missing required "Colormap" tag. A Palette image did not
have a required Colormap tag.
No space for tile buffer. There was insufficient memory to
allocate an i/o buffer.
No space for strip buffer. There was insufficient memory to
allocate an i/o buffer.
Can not handle format. The image has a format (combination
of BitsPerSample, SamplesPerPixel, and PhotometricInterpre-
tation) that TIFFReadRGBAImage can not handle.

No space for B&W mapping table. There was insufficient
memory to allocate a table used to map grayscale data to
RGB.
No space for Palette mapping table. There was insufficient
memory to allocate a table used to map data to 8-bit RGB.
