L_DotRemoveBitmap

#include "l_bitmap.h"

L_LTIMGCOR_API L_INT L_DotRemoveBitmap(pBitmap, pDotRemove, pfnCallback, pUserData, uFlags)

Finds and removes dots and specks of various sizes.

Parameters

pBITMAPHANDLE pBitmap

Pointer to the bitmap handle referencing the bitmap from which to remove dots.

pDOTREMOVE pDotRemove

Pointer to the DOTREMOVE structure that LEADTOOLS uses to remove dots.

DOTREMOVECALLBACK pfnCallback

Optional callback function for additional processing.

If you do not provide a callback function, use NULL as the value of this parameter.

If you do provide a callback function, use the function pointer as the value of this parameter.

The callback function must adhere to the function prototype described in DOTREMOVECALLBACK Function.

L_VOID *pUserData

Void pointer that you can use to pass one or more additional parameters that the callback function needs.

To use this feature, assign a value to a variable or create a structure that contains as many fields as you need. Then, in this parameter, pass the address of the variable or structure, casting it to L_VOID *. The callback function, which receives the address in its own pUserData parameter, can cast it to a pointer of the appropriate data type to access your variable or structure.

If the additional parameters are not needed, you can pass NULL in this parameter.

L_UINT32 uFlags

Reserved for future use. Must be 0.

Returns

Value Meaning
SUCCESS The function was successful.
< 1 An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.

Comments

This function does not support signed data images. It returns the error code ERROR_SIGNED_DATA_NOT_SUPPORTED if a signed data image is passed to this function.

(Document) This function finds and removes dots, specks, and blobs of various sizes in 1-bit documents. The dots, specks, and blobs may or may not be all black. The behavior of this function can be modified by using its callback.

This function works only on 1-bit black and white images.

If a region is selected, only the selected region will be changed by this function. If no region is selected, the whole image will be processed.

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.

Example

This example returns a region of all 1x1 to 3x3 specks that are solid black
If a speck has any white pixels, it is NOT part of the returned region
The call is configured to return a single LEAD region corresponding to all changes
The image itself is unchanged
A callback is used to display information about each speck that is removed
The callback does NOT return a region
