Member Functions

create()

virtual ImagePixelData::Ptr juce::ImageType::create ( Image::PixelFormat , int width, int height, bool shouldClearImage ) const

pure virtual

Creates a new image of this type, and the specified parameters.

Implemented in juce::NativeImageType, juce::OpenGLImageType, and juce::SoftwareImageType.

getTypeID()

virtual int juce::ImageType::getTypeID ( ) const

pure virtual

Must return a unique number to identify this type.

Implemented in juce::NativeImageType, juce::OpenGLImageType, and juce::SoftwareImageType.

convert()

virtual Image juce::ImageType::convert ( const Image & source ) const

virtual

Returns an image which is a copy of the source image, but using this type of storage mechanism.

For example, to make sure that an image is stored in-memory, you could use:

myImage = SoftwareImageType().convert (myImage);
