Vips.Image.sink_disc (original) (raw)

Method

VipsImagesink_disc

Declaration [src]

int
vips_sink_disc (
  VipsImage* im,
  VipsRegionWrite write_fn,
  void* a
)

Description [src]

vips_sink_disc() loops over im, top-to-bottom, generating it in sections. As each section is produced, write_fn is called.

write_fn is always called single-threaded (though not always from the same thread), it’s always given image sections in top-to-bottom order, and there are never any gaps.

This operation is handy for making image sinks which output to things like disc files. Things like vips_jpegsave(), for example, use this to write images to files in JPEG format.

Parameters

write_fn

Type: VipsRegionWrite

Called for every batch of pixels.

a

Type: void*

Client data.

Return value

Type: int

0 on success, -1 on error.
