  26. .SH NAME
  27. TIFFReadEncodedStrip \- read and decode a strip of data from an open
  28. .SM TIFF
  29. file
  30. .SH SYNOPSIS
  31. .B "#include <tiffio.h>"
  32. .sp
  33. .BI "tmsize_t TIFFReadEncodedStrip(TIFF *" tif ", uint32_t " strip ", void *" buf ", tmsize_t " size ")"
  34. .SH DESCRIPTION
  35. Read the specified strip of data and place up to
  36. .I size
  37. bytes of decompressed information in the (user supplied) data buffer.
  38. .SH NOTES
  39. The value of
  40. .I strip
  41. is a ``raw strip number.''
  42. That is, the caller must take into account whether or not the data are
  43. organized in separate planes (\c
  44. .IR PlanarConfiguration =2).
  45. To read a full strip of data the data buffer should typically be at least as
  46. large as the number returned by
  47. .BR TIFFStripSize (3TIFF).
  48. If the -1 passed in
  49. .I size
  50. parameter, the whole strip will be read. You should be sure you have enough
  51. space allocated for the buffer.
  52. .PP
  53. The library attempts to hide bit- and byte-ordering differences between the
  54. image and the native machine by converting data to the native machine order.
  55. Bit reversal is done if the
  56. .I FillOrder
  57. tag is opposite to the native machine bit order. 16- and 32-bit samples are
  58. automatically byte-swapped if the file was written with a byte order opposite
  59. to the native machine byte order,
  60. .SH "RETURN VALUES"
  61. The actual number of bytes of data that were placed in
  62. .I buf
  63. is returned;
  64. .IR TIFFReadEncodedStrip
  65. returns \-1 if an error was encountered.
  66. .SH DIAGNOSTICS
  67. All error messages are directed to the
  68. .BR TIFFError (3TIFF)
  69. routine.
