#include "l_bitmap.h"

L_LTIMGEFX_API L_INT L_BinaryFilterBitmap(pBitmap, pFilter, uFlags)

Imposes a binary filter on a bitmap.

Parameters

pBITMAPHANDLE pBitmap

Pointer to the bitmap handle that references the bitmap to be affected.

pBINARYFLT pFilter

Pointer to the binary filter to use. You can use one of the following predefined filters:

Value	Meaning
BFLT_EROSION_OMNI	[#define] Shrinks black objects in the image. The effect is biased in the specified direction.
BFLT_EROSION_HORZ
BFLT_EROSION_VERT
BFLT_EROSION_DIAG
BFLT_DILATION_OMNI	[#define] Enlarges black objects in the image. The effect is biased in the specified direction.
BFLT_DILATION_HORZ
BFLT_DILATION_VERT
BFLT_DILATION_DIAG

L_UINT32 uFlags

Reserved for future use. Must be 0.

Returns

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

Example

For complete sample code, refer to the CHILD.C module of the DEMO example.
This example loads a bitmap and dilates its black objects.

L_INT BinaryFilterBitmapExample(L_VOID) 
{ 
   L_INT nRet; 
   BITMAPHANDLE LeadBitmap;   /* Bitmap handle to hold the loaded image. */ 
   /* Load the bitmap, keeping the bits per pixel of the file */ 
   nRet = L_LoadBitmap (MAKE_IMAGE_PATH(TEXT("ImageProcessingDemo\\Image1.jpg")), &LeadBitmap, sizeof(BITMAPHANDLE), 0, ORDER_BGR, NULL, NULL); 
   if(nRet !=SUCCESS) 
      return nRet; 
   /* Dilate black objects */ 
   nRet = L_BinaryFilterBitmap(&LeadBitmap, BFLT_DILATION_OMNI , 0); 
   if(nRet !=SUCCESS) 
      return nRet; 
   nRet = L_SaveBitmap(MAKE_IMAGE_PATH(TEXT("Result.BMP")), &LeadBitmap, FILE_BMP, 24, 0, NULL); 
   if(nRet !=SUCCESS) 
      return nRet; 
   //free bitmap  
   if(LeadBitmap.Flags.Allocated)   
      L_FreeBitmap(&LeadBitmap);    
   return SUCCESS;
