XImage

XImage is the X client side storage mechanism for a X Window System pixel map. The structure of an XImage as defined by the X Window core protocol is the following:

typedef struct XImage XImage; struct XImage { int width, height; /* size of image */ int xoffset; /* number of pixels offset in X direction */ int format; /* XYBitmap, XYPixmap, ZPixmap */ char *data; /* pointer to image data */ int byte_order; /* data byte order, LSBFirst, MSBFirst */ int bitmap_unit; /* quant. of scanline 8, 16, 32 */ int bitmap_bit_order; /* LSBFirst, MSBFirst */ int bitmap_pad; /* 8, 16, 32 either XY or ZPixmap */ int depth; /* depth of image */ int bytes_per_line; /* accelerator to next scanline */ int bits_per_pixel; /* bits per pixel (ZPixmap) */ unsigned long red_mask; /* bits in z arrangement */ unsigned long green_mask; unsigned long blue_mask; XPointer obdata; /* hook for the object routines to hang on */ struct funcs { /* image manipulation routines */ XImage *(*create_image)(); int (*destroy_image)(); unsigned long (*get_pixel)(); int (*put_pixel)(); XImage *(*sub_image)(); int (*add_pixel)(); } f; };
