TIFFReadRawStrip(3tiff)

NAME

       TIFFReadRawStrip  -  return  the  undecoded contents of a strip of data
       from an open TIFF file

SYNOPSIS

       #include <tiffio.h>

       tsize_t  TIFFReadRawStrip(TIFF  *tif,  tstrip_t  strip,  tdata_t   buf,
       tsize_t size)

DESCRIPTION

       Read  the contents of the specified strip into the (user supplied) data
       buffer.  Note that the value of strip is a ``raw strip  number.''  That
       is,  the caller must take into account whether or not the data is orga-
       nized in separate planes (PlanarConfiguration=2).  To read a full strip
       of  data  the  data buffer should typically be at least as large as the
       number returned by TIFFStripSize.

RETURN VALUES

       The actual number of bytes of data that were placed in buf is returned;
       TIFFReadEncodedStrip returns -1 if an error was encountered.

DIAGNOSTICS

       All error messages are directed to the TIFFError(3TIFF) routine.
