.TH CODEC 3TIFF "October 29, 2004" "libtiff"
.SH NAME
TIFFFindCODEC, TIFFRegisterCODEC, TIFFUnRegisterCODEC, TIFFIsCODECConfigured
\- codec-related utility routines
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B "#include <tiffio.h>"
.sp
.BI "const TIFFCodec* TIFFFindCODEC(uint16_t " scheme ");"
.br
.BI "TIFFCodec* TIFFRegisterCODEC(uint16_t " scheme ", const char *" method ", TIFFInitMethod " init ");"
.br
.BI "void TIFFUnRegisterCODEC(TIFFCodec *" codec ");"
.br
.BI "int TIFFIsCODECConfigured(uint16_t " scheme ");"
.SH DESCRIPTION
.I libtiff
supports a variety of compression schemes implemented by software
.IR codecs .
Each codec adheres to a modular interface that provides for
the decoding and encoding of image data; as well as some other
methods for initialization, setup, cleanup, and the control
of default strip and tile sizes.
Codecs are identified by the associated value of the
.SM TIFF
.I Compression
tag; e.g. 5 for
.SM LZW
compression.
.PP
The
.I TIFFRegisterCODEC
routine can be used to
augment or override the set of codecs available to an application.
If the specified
.I scheme
already has a registered codec then it is
.I overridden
and any images with data encoded with this
compression scheme will be decoded using the supplied codec.
.PP
.I TIFFIsCODECConfigured
returns 1 if the codec is configured and working. Otherwise 0 will be returned.
.SH DIAGNOSTICS
.BR "No space to register compression scheme %s" .
.I TIFFRegisterCODEC
was unable to allocate memory for the data structures needed
to register a codec.
.PP
.BR "Cannot remove compression scheme %s; not registered" .
.I TIFFUnRegisterCODEC
did not locate the specified codec in the table of registered
compression schemes.
