GetData Method (RasterRegion)

Summary

Returns an array of Byte that represents the information that describes this RasterRegion.

Syntax

Java

WinRT C#

C++

public byte[] GetData()

Public Function GetData() As Byte()

public byte[] GetData()

public byte[] getData()

 function Leadtools.RasterRegion.GetData()

public: 
array<byte>^ GetData();

Return Value

An array of Byte that represents the information that describes this RasterRegion.

Remarks

You can use the GetData and SetData methods to save and load the content of a region to disk or memory.

If this RasterRegion is empty, then this method will return an array of 0 items.

Example

This example will loads an image, adds a region to it, gets the RasterRegion object from the image and set it to disk. It will then re-load this data from disk and set it back to another image.
