Summary
Enables or disables allocating memory for storing image data.
Syntax
C#
Objective-C
C++/CLI
Java
Python
public bool AllocateImage { get; set; } 
@property (nonatomic, assign) BOOL allocateImage; 
public boolean getAllocateImage() 
public void setAllocateImage(boolean value) 
public: 
property bool AllocateImage { 
   bool get(); 
   void set (    bool ); 
} 
AllocateImage # get and set (CodecsLoadOptions) 

Property Value

Value Description
true To allows LEADTOOLS do the necessary allocation. The default value is true.
false To disable LEADTOOLS image allocation.
Remarks

If you do not allow LEADTOOLS to allocate the memory for the storage of the image data, then you should process the data manually using the RasterCodecs.LoadImage event.

Example
C#
using Leadtools; 
using Leadtools.Codecs; 
 
using Leadtools.ImageProcessing.Core; 
 
 
RasterImage image; 
private void Codecs_LoadImage(object sender, CodecsLoadImageEventArgs e) 
{ 
   //copy each row of data into our manually allocated RasterImage 
   image.SetRow(e.Row, e.Buffer.Data, image.BytesPerLine * e.Lines);
