Parameters

uri
The System.Uri containing the input image data.
totalPages
true to query the URI for total number of pages, false otherwise.

Return Value

A CodecsImageInfo object that contains the information about the specified image.

Remarks

Specifying true for totalPages can cause the process to be slow for files with large number of pages.

LEADTOOLS supports the following URI schemes:

Scheme Description
System.Uri.UriSchemeFile Specifies that the URI is a disk file in local machine or universal naming convention (UNC) path.
System.Uri.UriSchemeHttp Specifies that the URI is accessed through the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP).
System.Uri.UriSchemeHttps Specifies that the URI is accessed through the Secure Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTPS).
System.Uri.UriSchemeFtp Specifies that the URI is accessed through the File Transfer Protocol (FTP).

If uri points to a resource in a System.Uri.UriSchemeHttp, System.Uri.UriSchemeHttps or System.Uri.UriSchemeFtp, then this RasterCodecs will attempt to download image data in an iterative fashion by creating a temporary buffer. The size of this buffer can be determined and changed by setting up the UriOperationBufferSize prior to calling this method.

For authentical and proxy settings, refer to UriOperationCredentials and UriOperationProxy.

Requirements

Target Platforms: Silverlight, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003 family, Windows Server 2008 family, Windows Vista, Windows 7, MAC OS/X (Intel Only)
