TIFFWriteEncodedStrip(3T)

NAME
TIFFWritedEncodedStrip - compress and write a strip of data to an open TIFF file

SYNOPSIS
#include <tiffio.h>
tsize_t TIFFWriteEncodedStrip(TIFF* tif, tstrip_t strip, tdata_t buf, tsize_t size)

DESCRIPTION
Compress size bytes of raw data from buf and append the result to the end of the specified strip. Note that the value of strip is a ``raw strip number.'' That is, the caller must take into account whether or not the data are organized in separate places (PlanarConfiguration=2).

NOTES
The library writes encoded data using the native machine byte order. Correctly implemented TIFF readers are expected to do any necessary byte-swapping to correctly process image data with BitsPerSample greater than 8.

RETURN VALUES
-1 is returned if an error was encountered. Otherwise, the value of size is returned.

DIAGNOSTICS
All error messages are directed to the TIFFError(3T) routine.

%s: File not open for writing. The file was opened for reading, not writing.

Can not write scanlines to a tiled image. The image is assumed to be organized in tiles because the TileWidth and TileLength tags have been set with TIFFSetField(3T).

%s: Must set "ImageWidth" before writing data. The image's width has not be set before the first write. See TIFFSetField(3T) for information on how to do this.

%s: Must set "PlanarConfiguration" before writing data. The organization of data has not be defined before the first write. See TIFFSetField(3T) for information on how to do this.

%s: No space for strip arrays". There was not enough space for the arrays that hold strip offsets and byte counts.
