SetUserData Method

Summary

Sets the data for the image to the specified unmanaged memory buffer.

Syntax

Objective-C

C++/CLI

Java

Python

public void SetUserData( 
   IntPtr data, 
   long size 
)

- (BOOL)setUserData:(nullable unsigned char *)userData 
       userDataSize:(unsigned long)userDataSize 
              error:(NSError **)error

public void setUserData( 
  byte data[],  
  long size 
)

public: 
void SetUserData(  
   IntPtr data, 
   int64 size 
)

def SetUserData(self,data,size):

Parameters

data
Pointer to the unmanaged memory buffer containing the image new data.

size
Number of bytes in data.

Remarks

The data that you specify will not be copied, but instead will be referenced by the image until the image is disposed, or until you call this method again.

To set up a RasterImage object with unmanaged user data, call the /#ctor constructor passing RasterMemoryFlags.User to the flags parameter.

Some image processing commands, such as RotateCommand and ColorResolutionCommand, need to re-allocate the image data. If you create an image with RasterMemoryFlags.User, and pass it to these command, they will change the image to RasterMemoryFlags.Conventional and re-allocate memory. Your original memory will no longer be used.

You are responsible for managing the image data. Dispose will not free data.

Example

This example uses GetPixelData and SetPixelData methods to swap the R and G values for a particular pixel.
