DESCRIPTION
TIFFOpen opens a TIFF file whose name is filename and returns a handle to be used in sub-
sequent calls to routines in libtiff. If the open operation fails, then zero is returned.
The mode parameter specifies if the file is to be opened for reading (``r''), writing
(``w''), or appending (``a'') and, optionally, whether to override certain default aspects
of library operation (see below). When a file is opened for appending, existing data will
not be touched; instead new data will be written as additional subfiles. If an existing
file is opened for writing, all previous data is overwritten.
If a file is opened for reading, the first TIFF directory in the file is automatically
read (also see TIFFSetDirectory(3TIFF) for reading directories other than the first). If
a file is opened for writing or appending, a default directory is automatically created
for writing subsequent data. This directory has all the default values specified in TIFF
Revision 6.0: BitsPerSample=1, ThreshHolding=bilevel art scan, FillOrder=1 (most signifi-
cant bit of each data byte is filled first), Orientation=1 (the 0th row represents the
visual top of the image, and the 0th column represents the visual left hand side), Sam-
plesPerPixel=1, RowsPerStrip=infinity, ResolutionUnit=2 (inches), and Compression=1 (no
compression). To alter these values, or to define values for additional fields, TIFFSet-
Field(3TIFF) must be used.
TIFFFdOpen is like TIFFOpen except that it opens a TIFF file given an open file descriptor
fd. The file's name and mode must reflect that of the open descriptor. The object asso-
ciated with the file descriptor must support random access.
TIFFClientOpen is like TIFFOpen except that the caller supplies a collection of functions
that the library will use to do UNIX-like I/O operations. The readproc and writeproc are
called to read and write data at the current file position. seekproc is called to change
the current file position a la lseek(2). closeproc is invoked to release any resources
associated with an open file. sizeproc is invoked to obtain the size in bytes of a file.
mapproc and unmapproc are called to map and unmap a file's contents in memory; c.f.
mmap(2) and munmap(2). The clientdata parameter is an opaque ``handle'' passed to the
client-specified routines passed as parameters to TIFFClientOpen.
OPTIONS
The open mode parameter can include the following flags in addition to the ``r'', ``w'',
and ``a'' flags. Note however that option flags must follow the read-write-append speci-
fication.
l When creating a new file force information be written with Little-Endian byte order
(but see below). By default the library will create new files using the native CPU
byte order.
b When creating a new file force information be written with Big-Endian byte order
(but see below). By default the library will create new files using the native CPU
byte order.
L Force image data that is read or written to be treated with bits filled from Least
Significant Bit (LSB) to Most Significant Bit (MSB). Note that this is the oppo-
site to the way the library has worked from its inception.
B Force image data that is read or written to be treated with bits filled from Most
Significant Bit (MSB) to Least Significant Bit (LSB); this is the default.
H Force image data that is read or written to be treated with bits filled in the same
order as the native CPU.
M Enable the use of memory-mapped files for images opened read-only. If the underly-
ing system does not support memory-mapped files or if the specific image being
opened cannot be memory-mapped then the library will fallback to using the normal
system interface for reading information. By default the library will attempt to
use memory-mapped files.
m Disable the use of memory-mapped files.
C Enable the use of ``strip chopping'' when reading images that are comprised of a
single strip or tile of uncompressed data. Strip chopping is a mechanism by which
the library will automatically convert the single-strip image to multiple strips,
each of which has about 8 Kilobytes of data. This facility can be useful in reduc-
ing the amount of memory used to read an image because the library normally reads
each strip in its entirety. Strip chopping does however alter the apparent con-
tents of the image because when an image is divided into multiple strips it looks
as though the underlying file contains multiple separate strips. Finally, note
that default handling of strip chopping is a compile-time configuration parameter.
The default behaviour, for backwards compatibility, is to enable strip chopping.
c Disable the use of strip chopping when reading images.
h Read TIFF header only, do not load the first image directory. That could be useful
in case of the broken first directory. We can open the file and proceed to the
other directories.
BYTE ORDER
The TIFF specification (all versions) states that compliant readers must be capable of
reading images written in either byte order. Nonetheless some software that claims to
support the reading of TIFF images is incapable of reading images in anything but the
native CPU byte order on which the software was written. (Especially notorious are appli-
cations written to run on Intel-based machines.) By default the library will create new
files with the native byte-order of the CPU on which the application is run. This ensures
optimal performance and is portable to any application that conforms to the TIFF specifi-
cation. To force the library to use a specific byte-order when creating a new file the
``b'' and ``l'' option flags may be included in the call to open a file; for example,
``wb'' or ``wl''.
RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion TIFFOpen, TIFFFdOpen, and TIFFClientOpen return a TIFF pointer.
Otherwise, NULL is returned.
DIAGNOSTICS
All error messages are directed to the TIFFError(3TIFF) routine. Likewise, warning mes-
sages are directed to the TIFFWarning(3TIFF) routine.
"%s": Bad mode. The specified mode parameter was not one of ``r'' (read), ``w'' (write),
or ``a'' (append).
%s: Cannot open. TIFFOpen() was unable to open the specified filename for read/writing.
Cannot read TIFF header. An error occurred while attempting to read the header informa-
tion.
Error writing TIFF header. An error occurred while writing the default header information
for a new file.
Not a TIFF file, bad magic number %d (0x%x). The magic number in the header was not (hex)
0x4d4d or (hex) 0x4949.
Not a TIFF file, bad version number %d (0x%x). The version field in the header was not 42
(decimal).
Cannot append to file that has opposite byte ordering. A file with a byte ordering oppo-
site to the native byte ordering of the current machine was opened for appending (``a'').
This is a limitation of the library.
