L_MrcSegmentBitmap

#include "ltsgm.h"

L_LTSGM_API L_INT L_MrcSegmentBitmap (hSegment, pBitmap, pSegOption)

HSEGMENTATION hSegment;	segmentation handle
pBITMAPHANDLE pBitmap;	pointer to a bitmap handle
pSEGMENTEXTOPTIONS pSegOption;	pointer to a structure

Automatically segments the specified bitmap, finding the best segment combination without specifying minimum segment dimensions.

Parameter	Description
hSegment	An existing segmentation handle. This handle is obtained by calling the L_MrcStartBitmapSegmentation function.
pBitmap	Pointer to the bitmap handle that references the bitmap to be segmented.
pSegOption	Pointer to the SEGMENTEXTOPTIONS structure that controls the automatic segmentation process. This cannot be NULL.

Returns

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

Comments

Call this function to segment the bitmap automatically. LEAD will process the bitmap and break it into appropriate picture, grayscale, text and background segments.

Call the L_MrcStartBitmapSegmentation function before using any of the segmentation functions. When the handle to the segmentation is no longer needed, free it by calling the L_MrcStopBitmapSegmentation function.

Example

The following example loads a bitmap and then performs automatic segmentation using the L_MrcSegmentBitmap function.

/* pMRCENUMSEGMENTSPROC callback function */ 
static L_INT EXT_CALLBACK EnumAutoSegments (HSEGMENTATION       hSegment, 
const pSEGMENTDATA  pSegment, 
L_INT               nSegId, 
L_VOID*             pUserData) 
{ 
   UNREFERENCED_PARAMETER(hSegment); 
   UNREFERENCED_PARAMETER(pUserData); 
   L_UINT SegArea; 
   L_TCHAR szSegmentId[256]; 
   memset(szSegmentId, 0, 256); 
   wsprintf(szSegmentId, TEXT("Error Segment size in Segment %d"), nSegId); 
   SegArea = (pSegment->rcBitmapSeg.bottom - pSegment->rcBitmapSeg.top) * 
   (pSegment->rcBitmapSeg.right - pSegment->rcBitmapSeg.left); 
   if(SegArea == 0) 
      MessageBox(NULL, szSegmentId, TEXT("Error"), MB_OK); 
   return SUCCESS; 
}
