L_INT EXT_FUNCTION L_GetObjectInfo (pBitmap,puX, puY, pnAngle, puRoundness, bWeighted)

pBITMAPHANDLE pBitmap;	/* pointer to the bitmap handle */
L_UINT L_FAR * puX;	/* pointer to a variable to be updated */
L_UINT L_FAR * puY;	/* pointer to a variable to be updated */
L_INT L_FAR * pnAngle;	/* pointer to a variable to be updated */
L_UINT L_FAR * puRoundness;	/* pointer to a variable to be updated */
L_BOOL bWeighted;	/* flag */

Determines the position, orientation and roundness of the object in the image. This function is available in the Raster Pro and above toolkits.

Parameter	Description
pBitmap	Pointer to the bitmap handle.
puX	Address of a variable to be updated with the x coordinate (in pixels) of the object’s center of mass.
puY	Address of a variable to be updated with the y coordinate (in pixels) of the object’s center of mass.
pnAngle	Address of a variable to be updated with the orientation angle of the object’s axis. Valid values are in degrees from –180.00 to 180.00, with negative values produced from clockwise rotation and where 0 is the horizon.
puRoundness	Address of a variable to be updated with the object’s roundness (compactness). This ratio will be 0 for a line and 100 for a circle.
bWeighted	Flag that indicates the weighting factor. Possible values are:
	Value	Meaning
	TRUE	The pixel intensity value (color) will be used as a weighting factor.
	FALSE	All non-zero pixels will have the same weight.

Returns

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

Comments

All the objects in the image are considered to be a single object. This function determines various attributes of the object in the image to identify the objects and to determine their position and orientation. If you do not need certain values pass NULL instead.

The results puX, puY and pnAngle obtained by this function are multiplied by 100 in order to obtain more precision. To get the actual results, divide by 100.

To update a status bar or detect a user interrupt during execution of this function, refer to L_SetStatusCallback.

This function supports 12 and 16-bit grayscale and 48 and 64-bit color images. Support for 12 and 16-bit grayscale and 48 and 64-bit color images is available only in the Document/Medical toolkits.

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.
