The SoSFImage class is used to store pixel images.
The SoSFImage class provides storage for inline 2D image maps. Images in Coin are mainly used for texture mapping support.
SoSFImage instances can be exported and imported as any other field class in Coin.
The components of an SoSFImage is: its image dimensions (width and height), the number of bytes used for describing each pixel (number of components) and an associated pixel buffer. The size of the pixel buffer will be width*height*components.
For texture maps, the components / bytes-per-pixel setting translates as follows: use 1 for a grayscale imagemap, 2 for grayscale + opacity (i.e. alpha value), 3 for RGB (1 byte each for red, green and blue) and 4 components means 3 bytes for RGB + 1 byte opacity value (aka RGBA).
This field is serializable into the Inventor / Coin file format in the following manner:
"X" and "Y" are the image dimensions along the given axes, "C" is the number of components in the image. The number of 0xRRGGBBAA pixel color specifications needs to equal the exact number of pixels, which of course is given by X*Y. Each part of the pixel color value is in the range 0x00 to 0xff (hexadecimal, 0 to 255 decimal).
For 3-component images, the pixel-format is 0xXXRRGGBB, where the byte in the pixel color value marked as "XX" is ignored and can be left out.
For 2-component images, the pixel-format is 0xXXXXGGAA, where the bytes in the pixel color values marked as "XX" are ignored and can be left out. "GG" is the part which gives a grayscale value and "AA" is for opacity.
For 1-component images, the pixel-format is 0xXXXXXXGG, where the bytes in the pixel color values marked as "XX" are ignored and can be left out.
The pixels are read as being ordered in rows along X (width) and columns along Y (height, bottom to top).
Here's a simple example of the file format serialization, for a 2x2 RGB-image inside an SoTexture2 node, as mapped onto an SoCube:
The mini-scene graph above results in the following mapping on the cube:
The cube has only been slightly rotated, so as you can see from the snapshot, the Y-rows are mapped from bottom to top, while the X-column pixels are mapped onto the cube from left to right.
Copy value(s) from f into this field. f must be of the same type as this field.
Implements SoField.
This API member is considered internal to the library, as it is not likely to be of interest to the application programmer.
Creates a new instance of the class type corresponding to the SoType object.
Notify the field's auditors that the image data have been modified.
This static method returns the SoType object associated with objects of this class.
Return pixel buffer, set size to contain the image dimensions and nc to the number of components in the image.
SbBool SoSFImage::hasSubTextures | ( | int & | numsubtextures | ) |
Returns whether or not sub textures was set up for this field.
If TRUE
is returned, the numsubtextures argument will be set to the number of sub textures in this image. This number can be used for iterating over all textures with the SoSFImage::getSubTextures() method.
SbBool SoSFImage::hasTransparency | ( | void | ) | const |
Returns TRUE
if at least one pixel of the image in this field is not completely opaque, otherwise FALSE
.
Internal method called upon initialization of the library (from SoDB::init()) to set up the type system.
SbBool SoSFImage::isNeverWrite | ( | void | ) | const |
Returns value of "never write texture data" flag.
Check for equal type and value(s).
Implements SoField.
Compare image of field with the image in this field and return FALSE
if they are equal.
Compare image of field with the image in this field and return TRUE
if they are equal.
void SoSFImage::setNeverWrite | ( | SbBool | flag | ) |
Set this flag to true to avoid writing out the texture to file. This can save a lot on file size.
Default value is FALSE
(i.e. write texture data to file.)
(Note: yet unimplemented for Coin.)
void SoSFImage::setValue | ( | const SbVec2s & | size, |
const int | nc, | ||
const unsigned char * | pixels, | ||
SoSFImage::CopyPolicy | copypolicy = COPY ) |
Initialize this field to size and nc.
If pixels is not NULL
, the image data is copied from pixels into this field. If pixels is NULL
, the image data is cleared by setting all bytes to 0 (note that the behavior on passing a NULL
pointer is specific for Coin, Open Inventor will crash if you try it).
The image dimensions is given by the size argument, and the nc argument specifies the number of bytes-pr-pixel. A 24-bit RGB image would for instance have an nc equal to 3.
The copypolicy argument makes it possible to share image data with SoSFImage without the data being copied (thereby using less memory resources). The default is to copy image data from the pixels source into an internal copy.
Important note: if you call this with copypolicy as either NO_COPY_AND_DELETE
or NO_COPY_AND_FREE
, and your application is running on Microsoft Windows, be aware that you will get mysterious crashes if your application is not using the same C library runtime as the Coin library.
The cause of this is that a memory block would then be allocated by the application on the memory heap of one C library runtime (say, for instance MSVCRT.LIB
), but attempted deallocated in the memory heap of another C library runtime (e.g. MSVCRTD.LIB
), which typically leads to hard-to-debug crashes.
Return pixel buffer. Return the image size and components in size and nc.
You cannot use this method to set a new image size. Use setValue() to change the size of the image buffer.
The field's container will not be notified about the changes until you call finishEditing().
