Compress(IntPtr) Method

Summary

Does buffer-to-buffer JPEG or LEAD CMP compression using an unmanaged memory buffer.

Syntax

Objective-C

C++/CLI

Python

public void Compress( 
   IntPtr data 
)

- (BOOL)compress:(unsigned char *)data error:(NSError **)error

public: 
void Compress(  
   IntPtr data 
)

def Compress(self,data):

Parameters

data
Pointer to unmanaged memory that holds the data to be compressed.

Remarks

You must call StartCompress before using this method, and you must call StopCompress to end the compression process. For a description of how these methods work together, refer to StartCompress.
