Saves a bitmap to a file in memory. The output can be in any of the supported compressed or uncompressed file formats.
|
Parameter |
Description |
|
phHandle |
Pointer to the memory handle that will be updated with a new memory handle that contains the saved image. To append a page to an existing image, this pointer should point to a valid memory handle (*phHandle!=NULL). If you have no image saved in memory, this pointer should point to NULL (*phHandle=NULL). If you pass a valid memory handle, the old handle will become invalid and a new handle created. The new handle may have the same value as the old handle, however, this is not guaranteed. |
|
pBitmap |
Pointer to the bitmap handle referencing the bitmap that holds the image data. |
|
nFormat |
Output file format. For valid values, refer to Formats of Output Files. |
|
nBitsPerPixel |
Resulting file's pixel depth. Note that not all bits per pixel are available to all file formats. For valid values, refer to Formats of Output Files. If nBitsPerPixel is 0, the file will be stored using the closet BitsPerPixel value supported by that format. For example, if a file format supports 1, 4, and 24 BitsPerPixel, and the pBitmap->BitsPerPixel is 5, the file will be stored as 24 bit. Likewise, if the pBitmap->BitsPerPixel is 2, the file will be stored as 4 bit. |
|
nQFactor |
This parameter is used when saving an image file to FILE_CMP, FILE_JPEG, FILE_JPEG_411, FILE_JPEG_422, FILE_TIF_JPEG, FILE_LEAD1JTIF, FILE_LEAD2JTIF, FILE_FPX_JPEG_QFACTOR, and FILE_EXIF_JPEG. Qfactor is a number that determines the degree of loss in the compression process. |
|
|
For possible values, refer to Compression Quality Factors. |
|
puSize |
Address of a variable, which the function updates to give you the size of the file. |
|
pSaveOptions |
Pointer to optional extended save options. Pass NULL to use the default save options. |
Returns
|
SUCCESS |
The function was successful. |
|
< 1 |
An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes. |
Comments
To use this function, do the following:
|
1. |
Declare a memory handle. You can then pass its address in this function, which will allocate the memory, save the bitmap, and unlock the memory. Set the value of the HANDLE to NULL. |
|
2. |
Declare a long integer (L_UINT32) variable for the file-size. You can then pass its address in this function, which will update its value with the size of the file. |
|
3. |
Call this function to save the bitmap in the specified memory handle. |
Support for 12 and 16-bit grayscale images is only available in the Document/Medical Imaging editions .
This function cannot be used in combination with L_RedirectIO.
|
Note: |
More options are available in the SAVEFILEOPTION structure. However, please note that the PageNumber data member of the SAVEFILEOPTION structure is not valid with this function. Therefore you cannot save a multi-page file with this function. |
|
Note: |
This function does not support Kodak FlashPix (FPX), Kodak PhotoCD (PCD), or Microsoft FAX (AWD) files. |
This function supports signed data images, but only DICOM and TIFF formats support signed data. This function will return an error code if you attempt to save a signed image to a format other than DICOM or TIFF.
If the bitmap has a region, the region stored in the bitmap will be saved, if the image is saved as one of the TIFF file formats.

Example
For complete sample code, refer to the SAVEMEM example.
/* This example loads a temporary bitmap, saves it as a file in memory,
then loads the memory-resident file into a new bitmap handle */
BITMAPHANDLE LeadBitmap; /* Bitmap handle for the final image */
BITMAPHANDLE TmpBitmap; /* Bitmap handle for the initial image */
HGLOBAL hFileInMemory=NULL; /* Memory handle */
L_UINT32 uMemSize; /* Size of the data in memory */
L_CHAR L_FAR *pData; /* Pointer to the data in memory */
/* Load a bitmap at its own bits per pixel */
L_LoadBitmap (TEXT("image3.cmp"), &TmpBitmap, sizeof(BITMAPHANDLE), 0, ORDER_BGR, NULL, NULL);
/* Save the image as a CMP file in memory */
L_SaveBitmapMemory(&hFileInMemory, &TmpBitmap, FILE_CMP, 24, QS, &uMemSize, NULL);
/* Free the temporary bitmap */
L_FreeBitmap(&TmpBitmap);
/* Get the pointer to the memory-resident file */
pData = (L_CHAR L_FAR *) GlobalLock (hFileInMemory);
/* Load the new bitmap from memory at its own bits per pixel */
L_LoadBitmapMemory (pData, &LeadBitmap, sizeof(BITMAPHANDLE), 0, ORDER_BGR, uMemSize, NULL, NULL);
/* Clean up */
