List of all members.


Detailed Description

The SbImage class is an abstract datatype for 2D and 3D images.

Be aware that this class is an extension for Coin, and it is not available in the original SGI Open Inventor v2.1 API.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

SbImage::SbImage void   ) 
 

Default constructor.

SbImage::SbImage const unsigned char *  bytes,
const SbVec2s size,
const int  bytesperpixel
 

Constructor which sets 2D data using setValue().

See also:
setValue()

SbImage::SbImage const unsigned char *  bytes,
const SbVec3s size,
const int  bytesperpixel
 

Constructor which sets 3D data using setValue().

This function is an extension for Coin, and it is not available in the original SGI Open Inventor v2.1 API.

See also:
setValue()
Since:
Coin 2.0

SbImage::~SbImage void   ) 
 

Destructor.


Member Function Documentation

void SbImage::setValue const SbVec2s size,
const int  bytesperpixel,
const unsigned char *  bytes
 

Convenience 2D version of setValue.

void SbImage::setValue const SbVec3s size,
const int  bytesperpixel,
const unsigned char *  bytes
 

Sets the image to size and bytesperpixel. If bytes != NULL, data is copied from bytes into this class' image data. If bytes == NULL, the image data is left uninitialized.

The image data will always be allocated in multiples of four. This means that if you set an image with size == (1,1,1) and bytesperpixel == 1, four bytes will be allocated to hold the data. This is mainly done to simplify the export code in SoSFImage and normally you'll not have to worry about this feature.

If the depth of the image (size[2]) is zero, the image is considered a 2D image.

Coin 2.0

void SbImage::setValuePtr const SbVec2s size,
const int  bytesperpixel,
const unsigned char *  bytes
 

Convenience 2D version of setValuePtr.

See also:
setValue()
Since:
Coin 2.0

void SbImage::setValuePtr const SbVec3s size,
const int  bytesperpixel,
const unsigned char *  bytes
 

Sets the image data without copying the data. bytes will be used directly, and the data will not be freed when the image instance is destructed.

If the depth of the image (size[2]) is zero, the image is considered a 2D image.

setValue()

Coin 2.0

unsigned char * SbImage::getValue SbVec2s size,
int &  bytesperpixel
const
 

Returns the 2D image data.

unsigned char * SbImage::getValue SbVec3s size,
int &  bytesperpixel
const
 

Returns the 3D image data.

Since:
Coin 2.0

SbVec3s SbImage::getSize void   )  const
 

Returns the size of the image. If this is a 2D image, the z component is zero. If this is a 3D image, the z component is >= 1.

Since:
Coin 2.0

SbBool SbImage::readFile const SbString filename,
const SbString *const *  searchdirectories = NULL,
const int  numdirectories = 0
 

Reads image data from filename. In Coin, simage is used to load image files, and several common file formats are supported. simage can be downloaded from our webpages. If loading fails for some reason this method returns FALSE, and the instance is set to an empty image. If the file is successfully loaded, the file image data is copied into this class.

If numdirectories > 0, this method will search for filename in all directories in searchdirectories.

int SbImage::operator== const SbImage image  )  const
 

Compare image of image with the image in this class and return TRUE if they are equal.

int SbImage::operator!= const SbImage image  )  const [inline]
 

Compare image of image with the image in this class and return FALSE if they are equal.

SbImage & SbImage::operator= const SbImage image  ) 
 

Assignment operator.

SbString SbImage::searchForFile const SbString basename,
const SbString *const *  dirlist,
const int  numdirs
[static]
 

Given a basename for a file and and array of directories to search (in dirlist, of length numdirs), returns the full name of the file found.

In addition to looking at the root of each directory in dirlist, we also look into the subdirectories texture/, textures/, images/, pics/ and pictures/ of each dirlist directory.

If no file matching basename could be found, returns an empty string.

SbBool SbImage::hasData void   )  const
 

Returns TRUE if the image is not empty. This can be useful, since getValue() will start loading the image if scheduleReadFile() has been used to set the image data.

Since:
Coin 2.0

void SbImage::readLock void   )  const
 

Apply a read lock on this image. This will make it impossible for other threads to change the image while this lock is active. Other threads can do read-only operations on this image, of course.

For the single thread version of Coin, this method does nothing.

See also:
readUnlock()
Since:
Coin 2.0

void SbImage::readUnlock void   )  const
 

Release a read lock on this image.

For the single thread version of Coin, this method does nothing.

readLock()

Coin 2.0

SbBool SbImage::scheduleReadFile SbImageScheduleReadCB *  cb,
void *  closure,
const SbString filename,
const SbString *const *  searchdirectories = NULL,
const int  numdirectories = 0
 

Schedule a file for reading. cb will be called the first time getValue() is called for this image, and the callback should then start a thread to read the image. Do not read the image in the callback, as this will lock up the application.

readFile()
