Detailed Description

BufferImage represents an image resource as a pixel data buffer.

Deprecated:
Deprecated since 4.0, DALi version 1.2.41

Its pixel buffer data is provided by the application developer.

If the pixel format of the pixel buffer contains an alpha channel, then the image is considered to be have transparent pixels without regard for the actual content of the channel, and will be blended.

Since:
2.4, DALi version 1.0.0

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Dali::BufferImage::BufferImage ( )

Constructor which creates an uninitialized BufferImage object.

Deprecated:
Deprecated since 4.0, DALi version 1.2.41

Use BufferImage::New(...) to create an initialized object.

Since:
2.4, DALi version 1.0.0
Dali::BufferImage::~BufferImage ( )

Destructor.

Deprecated:
Deprecated since 4.0, DALi version 1.2.41

This is non-virtual since derived Handle types must not contain data or virtual methods.

Since:
2.4, DALi version 1.0.0
Dali::BufferImage::BufferImage ( const BufferImage &  handle)

This copy constructor is required for (smart) pointer semantics.

Deprecated:
Deprecated since 4.0, DALi version 1.2.41
Since:
2.4, DALi version 1.0.0
Parameters:
[in]handleA reference to the copied handle

Member Function Documentation

static BufferImage Dali::BufferImage::DownCast ( BaseHandle  handle) [static]

Downcasts a handle to BufferImage handle.

Deprecated:
Deprecated since 4.0, DALi version 1.2.41

If the handle points to a BufferImage, the downcast produces valid handle. If not, the returned handle is left uninitialized.

Since:
2.4, DALi version 1.0.0
Parameters:
[in]handleHandle to an object
Returns:
Handle to a BufferImage or an uninitialized handle

Reimplemented from Dali::Image.

PixelBuffer* Dali::BufferImage::GetBuffer ( )

Returns the pixel buffer of the Image.

Deprecated:
Deprecated since 4.0, DALi version 1.2.41

The application can write to the buffer to modify its contents.

Whilst the image is on stage, after writing to the buffer the application should call Update() and wait for the Image::UploadedSignal() method before writing again.

Since:
2.4, DALi version 1.0.0
Returns:
The pixel buffer
unsigned int Dali::BufferImage::GetBufferSize ( ) const

Returns buffer size in bytes.

Deprecated:
Deprecated since 4.0, DALi version 1.2.41
Since:
2.4, DALi version 1.0.0
Returns:
The buffer size in bytes
unsigned int Dali::BufferImage::GetBufferStride ( ) const

Returns buffer stride (in bytes).

Deprecated:
Deprecated since 4.0, DALi version 1.2.41
Since:
2.4, DALi version 1.0.0
Returns:
The buffer stride
Pixel::Format Dali::BufferImage::GetPixelFormat ( ) const

Returns the pixel format of the contained buffer.

Deprecated:
Deprecated since 4.0, DALi version 1.2.41
Since:
2.4, DALi version 1.0.0
Returns:
The pixel format
bool Dali::BufferImage::IsDataExternal ( ) const

Returns whether BufferImage uses external data source or not.

Deprecated:
Deprecated since 4.0, DALi version 1.2.41

If not, dali holds ownership of the PixelBuffer, otherwise the application is responsible for freeing it.

The application must not destroy an external PixelBuffer on a staged image if it has called Update() and hasn't received a Image::UploadedSignal.

Since:
2.4, DALi version 1.0.0
Returns:
true if application owns data, false otherwise
static BufferImage Dali::BufferImage::New ( unsigned int  width,
unsigned int  height,
Pixel::Format  pixelformat = Pixel::RGBA8888 
) [static]

Creates a new BufferImage.

Deprecated:
Deprecated since 4.0, DALi version 1.2.41

Also a pixel buffer for image data is allocated. Dali has ownership of the buffer. For better performance and portability use power of two dimensions. The maximum size of the image is limited by GL_MAX_TEXTURE_SIZE.

Since:
2.4, DALi version 1.0.0
Parameters:
[in]widthImage width in pixels
[in]heightImage height in pixels
[in]pixelformatThe pixel format (rgba 32 bit by default)
Returns:
A handle to a new instance of BufferImage
Precondition:
width & height are greater than zero
Note:
default resource management policies are Immediate and Never
static BufferImage Dali::BufferImage::New ( PixelBuffer *  pixelBuffer,
unsigned int  width,
unsigned int  height,
Pixel::Format  pixelFormat = Pixel::RGBA8888,
unsigned int  stride = 0 
) [static]

Creates a new BufferImage, which uses an external data source.

Deprecated:
Deprecated since 4.0, DALi version 1.2.41

The PixelBuffer has to be allocated by application.

The application holds ownership of the buffer. It must not destroy the PixelBuffer on a staged image if it has called Update() and hasn't received a Image::UploadedSignal, or if it has just added it to the stage and has not received a Image::UploadedSignal.

For better performance and portability use power of two dimensions. The maximum size of the image is limited by GL_MAX_TEXTURE_SIZE.

Since:
2.4, DALi version 1.0.0
Parameters:
[in]pixelBufferPixel buffer has to be allocated by application
[in]widthImage width in pixels
[in]heightImage height in pixels
[in]pixelFormatThe pixel format (rgba 32 bit by default)
[in]strideThe internal stride of the pixelbuffer in pixels
Returns:
A handle to a new instance of BufferImage
Precondition:
width & height are greater than zero
BufferImage& Dali::BufferImage::operator= ( const BufferImage &  rhs)

This assignment operator is required for (smart) pointer semantics.

Deprecated:
Deprecated since 4.0, DALi version 1.2.41
Since:
2.4, DALi version 1.0.0
Parameters:
[in]rhsA reference to the copied handle
Returns:
A reference to this
void Dali::BufferImage::Update ( )

Inform Dali that the contents of the buffer have changed.

Deprecated:
Deprecated since 4.0, DALi version 1.2.41

Image::UploadedSignal will be sent in response if the image is on stage and the image data has been successfully copied to graphics memory. To avoid visual tearing, the application should wait for the Image::UploadedSignal before modifying the data.

The application must not destroy an external PixelBuffer on a staged image after calling this method until the Image::UploadedSignal has been successfully received.

Since:
2.4, DALi version 1.0.0
Note:
BufferImage::Update might not work with BGR/BGRA formats!
Some GPUs may not support Non power of two buffer updates (for example C110/SGX540)
void Dali::BufferImage::Update ( RectArea  updateArea)
Deprecated:
Deprecated since 4.0, DALi version 1.2.41
