The FILEINFO structure, which is loaded by calling the L_FileInfo function, provides information about the specified file.

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

Note: The LTFIL.H header file describes the entire FILEINFO structure.

Member	Data Type	Description
uStructSize	L_UINT	Size of this structure, in bytes (for versioning). Use the sizeof() macro to calculate this value.
Format	L_INT	File format. For possible values, refer to Summary of All Supported Image File Formats.
Name[_MAX_FNAME+_MAX_EXT]	L_TCHAR	A character array containing the null-terminated string that is the filename. The name is truncated if it exceeds _MAX_FNAME + _MAX_EXT characters.
Width	L_INT	Image width, in pixels.
Height	L_INT	Image height, in pixels.
BitsPerPixel	L_INT	Bits per pixel.
SizeDisk	L_SSIZE_T	Size of the file on disk (in bytes).
SizeMem	L_SSIZE_T	Amount of memory (in bytes) required to load the file.
Compression[20]	L_TCHAR	A 20-character array containing the null-terminated string that describes the compression method.
ViewPerspective	L_INT	Where the beginning of the image is stored. The following values are valid: TOP_LEFT BOTTOM_LEFT TOP_RIGHT BOTTOM_RIGHT TOP_LEFT90 TOP_LEFT270. For descriptions, refer to Accounting for View Perspective.
Order	L_INT	Color order of the bitmap. This field is meaningful if the image does not have a palette. It indicates whether the color values are in red-green-blue or blue-green-red order. The following values are valid: ORDER_RGB ORDER_BGR ORDER_GRAY
PageNumber	L_INT	The page number in a multi-page file. To determine the total number of pages in a file, call L_FileInfo with uFlags set to FILEINFO_TOTALPAGES.
TotalPages	L_INT	The total number of pages present in a file. To update this field, call L_FileInfo with uFlags set to FILEINFO_TOTALPAGES. If you do not want this field updated, call L_FileInfo with uFlags set to 0.
XResolution	L_INT	Horizontal resolution, in dots per inch. Some file formats save this value in the file header.
YResolution	L_INT	Vertical resolution, in dots per inch. Some file formats save this value in the file header.
Flags	L_UINT	File characteristics. For possible values, refer to FILEINFO Flags.
GlobalLoop	L_UINT	Global animation loop count. 0 = infinity. This field is valid only if the FILEINFO_HAS_GLOBALLOOP flag is set.
GlobalWidth	L_INT	Global width for animation playback
GlobalHeight	L_INT	Global height for animation playback
GlobalBackground	L_COLORREF	Global background color for animation playback (FILEINFO Flags)
GlobalPalette[256]	L_RGBQUAD	Global palette for animation playback (FILEINFO Flags).
IFD	L_SIZE_T	Offset within a TIFF file where a page starts. This member is updated when L_FileInfo is called.
Layers	L_INT	The number of layers the PSD file contains (only PSD files can have layers). Layers is 0 if the file is not a PSD file, or if the file is a PSD file but does not have any layers.
ColorSpace	L_INT	Color space of the file. The possible values are:
		Value	Meaning
		COLORSPACE_BGR	[0] RGB or BGR
		COLORSPACE_YUV	[1] YUV or YCbCr
		COLORSPACE_CMYK	[2] CMYK
		COLORSPACE_CIELAB	[3] CIELab
Channels	L_INT	The number of channels the PSD file contains (only PSD files can have channels). If this value is 0, then the file does not contain channels.
bIsDocFile	L_BOOL	TRUE if the image file or stream is a document format, FALSE otherwise. When the value of this member is TRUE, then the image file or stream passed to the L_FileInfo is a document file such as PDF or XPS and dDocPageWidth, dDocPageHeight and uDocUnit will contain the original document logical size. The physical load (rasterization size) is calculated based on the current rasterization values and is stored in Width, Height, XResolution and YResolution. When the value of this member is FALSE, then the image file or stream is a raster image such as JPEG or TIFF. These files have physical size so dDocPageWidth, dDocPageHeight and uDocUnit should not be used.
dDocPageWidth	L_DOUBLE	The logical width of the document. This value is in uDocUnit. The logical width and height of the document is the original size before rasterization. LEADTOOLS usually returns the logical size in inches. Use dDocPageWidth only if the value of bIsDocFile is TRUE.
dDocPageHeight	L_DOUBLE	The logical height of the document. This value is in uDocUnit. The logical width and height of the document is the original size before rasterization. LEADTOOLS usually returns the logical size in inches. Use dDocPageHeight only if the value of bIsDocFile is TRUE.
uDocUnit	RASTERIZEDOC_UNIT	The unit for dDocPageWidth and dDocPageHeight. Valid values are as follows:
		Value	Meaning
		RASTERIZEDOC_UNIT_PIXEL	[0] Page width and height measurements are in pixels.
		RASTERIZEDOC_UNIT_INCH	[1] Page width and height measurements are in inches.
		RASTERIZEDOC_UNIT_MILLIMETER	[2] Page width and height measurements are in millimeters.
bIsVectorFile	L_BOOL	TRUE if the image file or stream is a vector format, FALSE otherwise.
VectorParallelogram	VECTORPARALLELOGRAM	Parallelogram structure that contains the bounding parallelogram for the vector. Only valid when loading vector files and the value of bIsVectorFile is TRUE. When loading vector files such as DXF and DWG, the parallelogram values retrieved by L_FileInfo and set in FILEINFO may not always be correct because the values depend on the file's saved data. L_FileInfo does not load file objects but reads the file dimensions which may not be saved within the file.
MessageCount	L_INT	Total number of messages (for PST files only).
nHorzTiles	L_INT	Number of horizontal tiles.
nVertTiles	L_INT	Number of vertical tiles.
pFilterData	L_VOID *	A pointer to a filter data structure used to speed up loading. pFilterData is valid only if the FILEINFO_USEFILTERDATA flag was passed to L_FileInfo. If not NULL, pass the data through the LOADFILEOPTION structure and free it by calling L_FreeFilterData when it is no longer needed. See the Using Filter Data to Speed up Loading Large Files topic for more information.
uFilterDataSize	L_SIZE_T	Size of the filter data. Returned only if the FILEINFO_USEFILTERDATA flag was passed to L_FileInfo. If 0, it is possible that the filter data contains handles or pointers that are valid only in the current process. Also, if 0, the filter data can be used only in one thread at a time. Currently, this is the case for most filters. If not 0, the filter data is flat and can be saved to disk and reloaded later. See the Using Filter Data to Speed up Loading Large Files topic for more information.
nFilter	L_INT	The filter that allocated the filter data. Returned only if the FILEINFO_USEFILTERDATA flag was passed to L_FileInfo. See the Using Filter Data to Speed up Loading Large Files topic for more information.

Comments

pFILEINFO is a pointer to a FILEINFO structure. Where the function parameter type is pFILEINFO, you can declare a FILEINFO variable, update the structure's fields, and pass the variable's address in the parameter. Declaring a pFILEINFO variable is necessary only if your program requires a pointer.

Some functions which take this structure as a parameter require that the structure must be initialized prior to the function call. You must set the uStructSize member to the total size, in bytes, of the structure. Use the sizeof() macro to calculate this value. Functions that do not require the structure be initialized will take the total size of the structure, in bytes, as an additional function parameter.

Multi-page files can be loaded more quickly using two mechanisms, as follows:

1. TIFF files can use the IFD (offset of each page). For more information about loading and saving large TIFF files more quickly, refer to Loading and Saving Large TIFF/BigTIFF Files.

2. Files other than TIFF files can use a filter data mechanism. Retrieve the filter data by calling L_FileInfo with the FILEINFO_USEFILTERDATA flag. If the filter supports this mechanism, the filter data is returned by filling the pFilterData, uFilterDataSize and nFilter members of the FILEINFO structure. You then pass the filter data through LOADFILEOPTION structures to the load or convert functions and then free them with L_FreeFilterData when they are not needed anymore. See the Using Filter Data to Speed up Loading Large Files topic for more information.

Please note that if FILEINFO.Format is FILE_JPEG or FILE_TIF_JPEG and FILEINFO.BitsPerPixel is 8, then the image uses the 4:0:0 color space, not the 4:4:4 color space.

Currently only PSD files support layers.
