Name

im_writeline - writes a line of data in the image descriptor

Synopsis

#include <vips/vips.h>

int im_writeline(ypos, image, buffer)
int ypos;
IMAGE *image;
char *buffer;

Description

im_writeline(3) writes the ypos line of an image held in buffer to either the output buffer image (previously set by im_setbuf(3) ) or to an output file (previously set by im_openput(3) ). The function provides uniform treatment of output irrespectively whether it is a file or a buffer image.

You should be careful that the buffer does indeed contain enough data for a complete line of pels --- see lsize(3) .

Any evaluation callbacks which have been added to image are triggered --- see im_generate(3) and im_add_eval_callback(3) .

Bugs

This function changed in VIPS6: programs written previously must be modified by removing the last argument of the old im_writeline(3) .

Return Value

The function returns 0 on success and -1 on error.
