L_ConvertBuffer

#include "l_bitmap.h"

L_LTKRN_API L_INT L_ConvertBuffer(pBuffer, nWidth, nBitsPerPixelSrc, nBitsPerPixelDst, nOrderSrc, nOrderDst, pPaletteSrc, pPaletteDst)

L_UCHAR* pBuffer;	pointer to the input buffer
L_INT nWidth;	image width, in pixels
L_INT nBitsPerPixelSrc;	input bits per pixel
L_INT nBitsPerPixelDst;	output bits per pixel
L_INT nOrderSrc;	input color order
L_INT nOrderDst;	output color order
L_RGBQUAD* pPaletteSrc;	pointer to the palette for the existing data
L_RGBQUAD* pPaletteDst;	pointer to the palette for the converted data

Converts data in the specified buffer to the specified bits per pixel and color order. You can convert from any bits per pixel to any bits per pixel.

Parameter	Description
pBuffer	Pointer to the input buffer.
nWidth	Image width, in pixels.
nBitsPerPixelSrc	Input bits per pixel. Possible values are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 16, 24, 32, 48, and 64.
nBitsPerPixelDst	Output bits per pixel. Use 0 for 8-bit grayscale.
nOrderSrc	The input color order. Possible values are:
	Value	Meaning
	ORDER_RGB	[0] The input colors are in red-green-blue order.
	ORDER_BGR	[1] The input colors are in blue-green-red order.
	ORDER_GRAY	[2] 12, 16 or 32-bit grayscale image. 12, 16 and 32-bit grayscale images are only supported in Document and Medical Imaging toolkits.
	0	The data is 8 bits per pixel or less.
	ORDER_ROMM	[5] The input colors are in ROMM order. ROMM only supports 24 and 48-bit images.
nOrderDst	The output color order. Possible values are:
	Value	Meaning
	ORDER_RGB	[0] The output colors are in red-green-blue order.
	ORDER_BGR	[1] The output colors are in blue-green-red order.
	ORDER_GRAY	[2] 12, 16 or 32-bit grayscale image. 12, 16 and 32-bit grayscale images are only supported in Document and Medical Imaging toolkits.
	0	The data is 8 bits per pixel or less.
	ORDER_ROMM	[5] The output colors are in ROMM order. ROMM only supports 24 and 48-bit images.
pPaletteSrc	Pointer to the palette for the existing data, before conversion. If the data is converted from 16 or 24 bits per pixel, use NULL for no palette.
pPaletteDst	Pointer to the palette for the converted data. If the data is converted to 16 or 24 bits per pixel, use NULL for no palette.

Returns

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

Comments

Support for 12, 16 and 32-bit grayscale images is only available in the Document and Medical Imaging toolkits.

The conversion uses only one buffer, which must be large enough to hold the data before and after conversion.

Image data that is 8 bits per pixel or less must use a palette, and this function can use such data as input, output, or both. Therefore, you may need to specify the palette for the input, or for the output, or both.

Example

This example loads a temporary bitmap at 8 bits per pixel, creates a new bitmap at 16 bits per pixel, and uses L_ConvertBuffer to convert data from the temporary bitmap to the new one.
