.TH TIFFReadRawTile 3TIFF "October 15, 1995" "libtiff"

.SH NAME

TIFFReadRawTile \- return an undecoded tile of data from an open

.SM TIFF

file

.SH SYNOPSIS

.B "#include <tiffio.h>"

.sp

.BI "tsize_t TIFFReadRawTile(TIFF *" tif ", ttile_t " tile ", tdata_t " buf ", tsize_t " size ")"

.SH DESCRIPTION

Read the contents of the specified tile into the (user supplied) data buffer.

Note that the value of

.I tile

is a ``raw tile number.'' That is, the caller must take into account whether

or not the data is organized in separate planes (\c

.IR PlanarConfiguration =2).

.I TIFFComputeTile

automatically does this when converting an (x,y,z,sample) coordinate quadruple

to a tile number. To read a full tile of data the data buffer should typically

be at least as large as the value returned by

.IR TIFFTileSize .

.SH "RETURN VALUES"

The actual number of bytes of data that were placed in

.I buf

is returned;

.IR TIFFReadEncodedTile

returns \-1 if an error was encountered.

.SH DIAGNOSTICS

All error messages are directed to the

.BR TIFFError (3TIFF)

routine.
