L_INT nBitsPerPixel;

resulting bitmap pixel depth

flags that determine the behavior of LFile::FeedLoad

pLOADFILEOPTION pLoadFileOption;

pointer to optional extended load options

pFILEINFO pFileInfo;

pointer to a structure

Initializes a file-load process in which you control the input stream. You must call the LFile::FeedLoad function to supply buffered data, and you must call LFile::StopFeedLoad when the loading is complete.

Parameter Description
nBitsPerPixel Resulting bitmap pixel depth. Possible values are:
  Value Meaning
  0 Keep the original file's pixel depth (Do not convert).
  1 to 8 The specified bits per pixel in the resulting bitmap.
  12 12 bits per pixel in the resulting bitmap.
  16 16 bits per pixel in the resulting bitmap
  24 24 bits per pixel in the resulting bitmap
  32 32 bits per pixel in the resulting bitmap
  48 48 bits per pixel in the resulting bitmap
  64 64 bits per pixel in the resulting bitmap
nOrder The desired color order. Possible values are:
  Value Meaning
  ORDER_RGB [0] Red-green-blue order.
  ORDER_BGR [1] Blue-green-red order.
  ORDER_GRAY [2] 12- or 16-bit grayscale image. 12- and 16-bit grayscale images are only supported in the Document/Medical toolkits.
  0 The data is 8 bits per pixel or less.
  ORDER_RGBORGRAY [3] Load the image as red, green, blue OR as a 12- or 16-bit grayscale image. 12- and 16-bit grayscale images are supported in the Document/Medical toolkits only.
  ORDER_BGRORGRAY [4] Load the image as blue, green, red OR as a 12- or 16-bit grayscale image. 12- and 16-bit grayscale images are supported in the Document/Medical toolkits only.
uFlags Binary flags that determine the behavior of LFile::FeedLoad. You can specify one or more of the following values:
  Value Meaning
  LOADFILE_ALLOCATE [0x0001] The function allocates memory for the specified bitmap.
  LOADFILE_STORE [0x0002] The function loads data into the specified bitmap. (This takes place in addition to the actions of your callback function.)
  LOADFILE_FIXEDPALETTE [0x0004] This flag will force a palletized image to be dithered to a fixed palette.
  LOADFILE_NOINTERLACE [0x0008] The function passes image data in the order that is displayed, regardless of how it is stored in the file. (Set this flag if your program does not handle interlaced file formats.)
  LOADFILE_ALLPAGES [0x0010] The function loads all pages of a multipage file. Use this flag only if you are creating a bitmap list using the LPlayback::Append function.
  LOADFILE_COMPRESSED [0x0040] (Document/Medical only) If possible, load the file as a 1-bit RLE-compressed image. For more information, refer to Speeding Up 1-Bit Documents.
LOADFILE_CALLINANYTHREAD [0x00004000] If this flag is set, LEADTOOLS will call the LFile::LoadFileCallBack Function from a thread other than the thread which called StartFeedLoad. This will result in better performance. This is best if you do not use a LFile::LoadFileCallBack Function Function, or if you call the LFile::LoadFileCallBack Function function from a worker thread.
pLoadFileOption Pointer to optional extended load options. Pass NULL to use the default load options.
pFileInfo Pointer to a FILEINFO structure. This structure may contain file information used in loading an image, or it may be updated with information about the file being loaded.
  If nothing is known about the file, pass NULL for this parameter, or declare a variable of type FILEINFO and set the FILEINFO.Flags to 0, then pass the address of the FILEINFO structure in this parameter. In this case, if the address of a FILEINFO structure is passed, the FILEINFO structure will be updated with the results of LFile::GetInfo.
  If only the file type is known, set pFileInfo.Format to the file type and set pFileInfo.Flags to FILEINFO_FORMATVALID. This can also be done if LFile::GetInfo has been called previously, but values that affect the size of the image loaded have been changed (for example, by calling LFileSettings::SetPCDResolution or LFileSettings::SetWMFResolution). In this case the FILEINFO structure pointed to by pFileInfo will be updated with the results of LFile::GetInfo.
  If LFile::GetInfo has been called prior to calling this function, and no changes have been made to the contents of the structure filled by LFile::GetInfo, then the address of the filled FILEINFO structure can be passed for this parameter. In this case, the FILEINFO.Flags member should be set to FILEINFO_INFOVALID. The LFile::GetInfo function will set the FILEINFO.Flags to FILEINFO_INFOVALID. In this case the load will be faster since this function does not have to query the file filters for the file type.

Returns

SUCCESS

The function was successful.

< 1

An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.

Comments

This file-load process is useful when receiving transmitted images, such as those on the Internet. It works the same way as the LFile::LoadFile function, except that your code supplies the image data. The file-load process works as follows:

1.

You call the LFile::StartFeedLoad function to initialize the file-load process and identify the process with a handle (phLoad).

2.

You create a buffer, and each time you fill it with information, you call the LFile::FeedLoad function, which sends the data to the file-load process just as if the data were being read from a file on disk.

3.

Whenever it has enough data to do so, the file-load process behaves the same as in the LFile::LoadFile function. It allocates and begins loading the bitmap, according to the flags that you specify in the LFile::StartFeedLoad function. It calls LFile::FeedLoadCallBack callback function if the callback is enabled , whenever it has enough data in its input buffer.

 

The file-load process does not update information in the bitmap handle until it has received enough information to do so. (Usually, the information, such as the bitmap height and width, is in the file header.) The file-load process will make the first call to the callback function whenever this information is available.

4.

To end the file-load process, you call the LFile::StopFeedLoad function, which cleans up the process. If you call this function before supplying the complete file, it will successfully clean up the process, but will return a file-read error. You should trap the error if the load is canceled purposely.

ORDER_GRAY is only valid for 12- and 16-bit grayscale images. Support for 12- and 16-bit grayscale images is only available in the Document/Medical toolkits.

This function cannot be used in combination with the Redirect input / output functions.

Note: You should never pass an uninitialized FILEINFO structure to this function.
