NAME

       TIFFReadEncodedStrip - read and decode a strip of data from an open TIFF file

SYNOPSIS

          #include <tiffio.h>

       tmsize_t TIFFReadEncodedStrip(TIFF *tif, uint32_t strip, void *buf, tmsize_t size)

DESCRIPTION

       Read  the  specified  strip  of  data and place up to size bytes of decompressed information in the (user
       supplied) data buffer.

NOTES

       The value of strip is a "raw strip number".  That is, the caller must take into account  whether  or  not
       the  data  are  organized 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().   If  -1  is
       passed  in  the  size  parameter,  the whole strip will be read. You should be sure you have enough space
       allocated for the buffer.

       The library attempts to hide bit- and byte-ordering differences between the image and the native  machine
       by converting data to the native machine order.  Bit reversal is done if the FillOrder tag is opposite to
       the  native  machine  bit  order.  16-  and 32-bit samples are automatically byte-swapped if the file was
       written with a byte order opposite to the native machine byte order.

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 TIFFErrorExtR() routine.
