LBitmapBase::ConvertFromDIB

#include "ltwrappr.h"

virtual L_INT LBitmapBase::ConvertFromDIB(pInfo, pBits)

BITMAPINFO * pInfo;	pointer to the Windows BITMAPINFO structure
L_UCHAR * pBits;	pointer to the DIB image data

Converts a Windows device independent bitmap (DIB) into an LBitmapBase object. When this function is completed, there are two copies of the image in memory: the original DIB and the LEAD bitmap. Freeing one will not affect the other.

Parameter	Description
pInfo	Pointer to the Windows BITMAPINFO structure.
pBits	Pointer to a buffer containing the DIB image data.

Returns

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

Comments

This function updates information in the bitmap handle and copies the DIB image data into the LEAD bitmap.

This function supports the standard DIB formats (BI_RGB and BI_BITFIELDS) as well as some FOURCC (Four Character Code) formats that some capture cards output.

These are the FOURCC that LEADTOOLS supports at the moment:

YVU9 (YUV9), I420 (YUV12), YUV2 , YV12 , IF09 , IYUV , UYVY , cyuv, YUY2, YVYU, Y41P, Y211, Y41T, Y42T

Platforms

Win32, x64.

Example

This example loads a bitmap, converts it to a DIB, then converts the DIB back to a bitmap

L_INT LBitmapBase__ConvertFromDIBExample(HWND hWnd,LBitmapBase LeadBitmap) 
{ 
   UNREFERENCED_PARAMETER(hWnd); 
 
   L_INT nRet; 
   LBitmapBase  TmpBitmap;     
   HGLOBAL hDIB;               
   BITMAPINFO  * pInfo;   
   L_UCHAR  * pBits;      
   L_INT nColorData;           
 
   /* Load a bitmap at 8 bits per pixel so that we can demonstrate palette handling */ 
   nRet =TmpBitmap.Load (MAKE_IMAGE_PATH(TEXT("ImageProcessingDemo\\Image3.cmp")), 8, ORDER_BGR); 
   if(nRet !=SUCCESS) 
      return nRet; 
   hDIB = TmpBitmap.ConvertToDIB(DIB_BITMAPV5HEADER); 
   pInfo = (BITMAPINFO  *) GlobalLock( hDIB ); 
   if(pInfo->bmiHeader.biBitCount <= 8) 
      nColorData = 1 << pInfo->bmiHeader.biBitCount; 
   else 
      nColorData = 0; 
 
   pBits = (L_UCHAR  *) pInfo + sizeof(BITMAPINFOHEADER) + (nColorData * sizeof(RGBQUAD)); 
    
   nRet =LeadBitmap.ConvertFromDIB(pInfo, pBits); 
   if(nRet !=SUCCESS) 
      return nRet; 
 
   GlobalUnlock(hDIB); 
   GlobalFree(hDIB); 
   nRet =TmpBitmap.Free(); 
   if(nRet !=SUCCESS) 
      return nRet; 
 
   return SUCCESS;
