L_ConvertBitmapUnsignedToSigned

Show in webframe

#include "l_bitmap.h"

L_LTIMGCOR_API L_INT L_ConvertBitmapUnsignedToSigned(pBitmap, uFlags)

pBITMAPHANDLE pBitmap;

/* pointer to the bitmap handle */

L_UINT uFlags;

/* flag */

Converts an unsigned bitmap to signed.

Parameter

Description

pBitmap

Pointer to the bitmap handle referencing the bitmap.

uFlags

Flag that indicates how to process bits outside the low bit to high bit range. Possible values are:

 

Value

Meaning

 

PROCESS_RANGE_ONLY

[0x0001] Shift data by adding half the range to each pixel without changing bits outside the (LowBit-HighBit) range.

 

PROCESS_OUTSIDE_RANGE

[0x0002] Shift data by adding half the range to each pixel and set to zero all bits outside the (LowBit-HighBit) range.

Returns

SUCCESS

The function was successful.

< 1

An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.

Comments

This function updates pBitmap->MaxVal and pBitmap-> MinVal with new values that reflect the bitmap's new signed data. In addition, the pBitmap->Flags.Signed value will be set to one.

This function supports 12 and 16-bit grayscale images. Support for 12 and 16-bit grayscale images is available in the Document and Medical Imaging toolkits.

This function does not support 32-bit grayscale images. It returns the error code ERROR_GRAY32_UNSUPPORTED if a 32-bit grayscale image is passed to this function.
