.TH TIFFSetField 3TIFF "October 29, 2004" "libtiff"
.SH NAME
TIFFSetField, TIFFVSetField \- set the value(s) of a tag in a
.SM TIFF
file open for writing
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B "#include <tiffio.h>"
.sp
.BI "int TIFFSetField(TIFF *" tif ", ttag_t " tag ", " ... ")"
.sp
.B "#include <stdarg.h>"
.sp
.BI "int TIFFVSetField(TIFF *" tif ", ttag_t " tag ", va_list " ap ")"
.SH DESCRIPTION
.IR TIFFSetField
sets the value of a field
or pseudo-tag in the current directory associated with
the open
.SM TIFF
file
.IR tif .
(A
.I pseudo-tag 
is a parameter that is used to control the operation of the
.SM TIFF
library but whose value is not read or written to the underlying file.)
To set the value of a field
the file must have been previously opened for writing with
.IR TIFFOpen (3TIFF);
pseudo-tags can be set whether the file was opened for reading
or writing.
The field is identified by
.IR tag ,
one of the values defined in the include file
.B tiff.h
(see also the table below).
The actual value is specified using a variable argument list,
as prescribed by the
.IR stdarg (3)
interface (\c
or, on some machines, the
.IR varargs (3)
interface.)
.PP
.IR TIFFVSetField
is functionally equivalent to
.IR TIFFSetField
except that it takes a pointer to a variable
argument list.
.I TIFFVSetField
is useful for writing routines that are layered
on top of the functionality provided by
.IR TIFFSetField .
.PP
The tags understood by
.IR libtiff ,
the number of parameter values, and the
expected types for the parameter values are shown below.
The data types are:
.I char*
is null-terminated string and corresponds to the
.SM ASCII
data type;
.I uint16_t
is an unsigned 16-bit value;
.I uint32_t
is an unsigned 32-bit value;
.I uint16_t*
is an array of unsigned 16-bit values.
.I void*
is an array of data values of unspecified type.

Consult the
.SM TIFF
specification for information on the meaning of each tag.

* The contents of this field are quite complex.  See 
.BR "The ICC Profile Format Specification" ,
Annex B.3 "Embedding ICC Profiles in TIFF Files"
(available at http://www.color.org) for an explanation.

.SH "RETURN VALUES"
1 is returned if the operation was successful.
Otherwise, 0 is returned if an error was detected.
.SH DIAGNOSTICS
All error messages are directed to the
.BR TIFFError (3TIFF)
routine.
.PP
\fB%s: Cannot modify tag "%s" while writing\fP.
Data has already been written to the file, so the
specified tag's value can not be changed.
This restriction is applied to all tags that affect
the format of written data.
.PP
\fB%d: Bad value for "%s"\fP.
An invalid value was supplied for the named tag.
