LBitmapBase::GetRowCompressed

#include "ltwrappr.h"

virtual L_INT32 LBitmapBase::GetRowCompressed(pLRunBuffer, nRow, nLines=1, pWorkBuffer=NULL)

LBuffer L_FAR * pLRunBuffer;

/* pointer to an LBuffer object */

L_INT nRow;

/* number of the first row to retrieve */

L_INT nLines;

/* the number of rows to retrieve */

LBuffer L_FAR * pWorkBuffer;

/* pointer to an optional work buffer */

Retrieves one or more rows of 1-bit compressed data from a class object’s bitmap that has been loaded in its compressed format. This function is available in the Document/Medical toolkits only.

Parameter

Description

pLRunBuffer

Pointer to an LBuffer object that will receive the retrieved row(s).

nRow

The number of the row to retrieve. The first row is 0 and the last row is 1 less than the bitmap height.

nLines

The number of lines to retrieve.

pWorkBuffer

A pointer to an optional work buffer. You can also pass NULL. Allocating the work buffer speeds processing if you call this function more than once, because if you do not allocate a work buffer, the function allocates and frees a temporary buffer each time it is called. The size of this buffer should be the same as the value returned by LBitmapBase::GetBytesPerLine.

Returns

SUCCESS

The function was successful.

< 1

An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.

Comments

Retrieves a row (or part of a row) of 1-bit compressed data from a class objects bitmap that has been loaded in its compressed format.

This function is useful for working with 1-bit images that are loaded in their compressed formats for faster loading and display. For more information, refer to Speeding Up 1-Bit Documents.
