IWritableBitmapDataWriteRawT Method

Sets the underlying raw value within the current IWritableBitmapData at the specified coordinates.

Definition

Namespace: KGySoft.Drawing.Imaging
Assembly: KGySoft.Drawing.Core (in KGySoft.Drawing.Core.dll) Version: 9.1.1

C#

void WriteRaw<T>(
	int x,
	int y,
	T data
)
where T : struct, new()

VB

Sub WriteRaw(Of T As {Structure, New}) ( 
	x As Integer,
	y As Integer,
	data As T
)

C++

generic<typename T>
where T : value class, gcnew()
void WriteRaw(
	int x, 
	int y, 
	T data
)

F#

abstract WriteRaw : 
        x : int * 
        y : int * 
        data : 'T -> unit  when 'T : struct, new()

Parameters

x Int32: The x-coordinate of the value to write. The valid range depends on the size of T.
y Int32: The y-coordinate of the value to write.
data T: The raw value to write.

Type Parameters

T: The type of the value to write. Must be a value type without managed references.

Remarks

This method writes the actual raw underlying data. T can have any size so you by using this method you can write multiple pixels as well as individual color channels.

To determine the row width in bytes use the RowSize property of this IWritableBitmapData instance.

To determine the actual pixel size use the PixelFormat property of this IWritableBitmapData instance.

Examples

The following example demonstrates how to write multiple pixels by a single WriteRaw call:

C#

using IReadWriteBitmapData bmp4bppIndexed = BitmapDataFactory.CreateBitmapData(4, 4, KnownPixelFormat.Format4bppIndexed);
using IReadWriteBitmapData bitmapData = bmp4bppIndexed.GetReadWriteBitmapData();

// Writing as uint writes 8 pixels at once in case of a 4 BPP indexed bitmap:
bitmapData.WriteRaw<uint>(0, 0, 0x12345678);

// because of little endianness and 4 BPP pixel order the color indices will be printed
// in the following order: 7, 8, 5, 6, 3, 4, 1, 2
for (int x = 0; x < bitmapData.Width; x++)
    Console.WriteLine(bitmapData.GetColorIndex(x, 0));

Tip

See also the example at the Examples section of the IReadableBitmapData.ReadRaw method.

Exceptions

ArgumentOutOfRangeException

x is less than zero or the calculated offset of the value (considering the size of T) at least partially exceeds the bounds of a row.
-or-
y is less than zero or is greater than or equal to Height.
