Member Function Documentation

getFormatName()

String GIFImageFormat::getFormatName ( )

overridevirtual

Returns a description of this file format.

E.g. "JPEG", "PNG"

Implements ImageFileFormat.

usesFileExtension()

bool GIFImageFormat::usesFileExtension ( const File &  possibleFile )

overridevirtual

Returns true if this format uses the file extension of the given file.

Implements ImageFileFormat.

canUnderstand()

bool GIFImageFormat::canUnderstand ( InputStream &  input )

overridevirtual

Returns true if the given stream seems to contain data that this format understands.

The format class should only read the first few bytes of the stream and sniff for header bytes that it understands.

Note that this will advance the stream and leave it in a new position, so if you're planning on re-using it, you may want to rewind it after calling this method.

See also

decodeImage

Implements ImageFileFormat.

decodeImage()

Image GIFImageFormat::decodeImage ( InputStream &  input )

overridevirtual

Tries to decode and return an image from the given stream.

This will be called for an image format after calling its canUnderStand() method to see if it can handle the stream.

Parameters

input

the stream to read the data from. The stream will be positioned at the start of the image data (but this may not necessarily be position 0)

Returns

the image that was decoded, or an invalid image if it fails.

See also

loadFrom

Implements ImageFileFormat.

writeImageToStream()

bool GIFImageFormat::writeImageToStream ( const Image &  sourceImage, OutputStream &  destStream  )

overridevirtual

Attempts to write an image to a stream.

To specify extra information like encoding quality, there will be appropriate parameters in the subclasses of the specific file types.

Returns

true if it nothing went wrong.

Implements ImageFileFormat.
