 NAME
TIFFGetBitRevTable, TIFFReverseBits, TIFFSwabShort, TIFFSwabLong,
TIFFSwabArrayOfShort, TIFFSwabArrayOfLong - byte- and bit-swapping routines

 SYNOPSIS
 "#include <tiffio.h>"  "const unsigned char* TIFFGetBitRevTable(int " reversed ")" 

 "void TIFFReverseBits(u_char *" data ", unsigned long " nbytes ")" 

 "void TIFFSwabShort(uint16_t *" data ")" 

 "void TIFFSwabLong(uint32_t *" data ")" 

 "void TIFFSwabArrayOfShort(uint16_t *" data ", unsigned long " nshorts ")" 

 "void TIFFSwabArrayOfLong(uint32_t *" data ", unsigned long " nlongs ")" 
 DESCRIPTION
The following routines are used by the library to swap
16- and 32-bit data and to reverse the order of bits in bytes.


 TIFFSwabShort and
 TIFFSwabLong swap the bytes in a single 16-bit and 32-bit item, respectively.
 TIFFSwabArrayOfShort and
 TIFFSwabArrayOfLong swap the bytes in an array of 16-bit and 32-bit items, respectively.


 TIFFReverseBits replaces each byte in
 data with the equivalent bit-reversed value. This operation is performed with a
lookup table, which is returned using the
 TIFFGetBitRevTable function.
 reversed parameter specifies which table should be returned. Supply
 1 if you want bit reversal table. Supply
 0 to get the table that do not reverse bit values. It is a lookup table that can
be used as an
 "identity function" ; i.e.
 "TIFFNoBitRevTable[n] == n" . 
 DIAGNOSTICS
None.
