NAME

       TIFFWritedEncodedTile - compress and write a tile of data to an open TIFF file

SYNOPSIS

       #include <tiffio.h>

       tsize_t TIFFWriteEncodedTile(TIFF *tif, ttile_t tile, tdata_t buf, tsize_t size)

DESCRIPTION

       Compress size bytes of raw data from buf and append the result to the end of the specified
       tile. Note that the value of tile is a ``raw tile number.'' That is, the caller must  take
       into   account   whether   or   not   the   data   are   organized   in   separate  places
       (PlanarConfiguration=2).  TIFFComputeTile  automatically  does  this  when  converting  an
       (x,y,z,sample) coordinate quadruple to a tile number.

NOTES

       The library writes encoded data using the native machine byte order. Correctly implemented
       TIFF readers are expected to do any necessary byte-swapping  to  correctly  process  image
       data with BitsPerSample greater than 8.

RETURN VALUES

       -1 is returned if an error was encountered. Otherwise, the value of size is returned.

DIAGNOSTICS

       All error messages are directed to the TIFFError(3TIFF) routine.

       %s: File not open for writing.  The file was opened for reading, not writing.

       Can  not  write tiles to a stripped image.  The image is assumed to be organized in strips
       because  neither  of   the   TileWidth   or   TileLength   tags   have   been   set   with
       TIFFSetField(3TIFF).

       %s: Must set "ImageWidth" before writing data. The image's width has not be set before the
       first write. See TIFFSetField(3TIFF) for information on how to do this.

       %s: Must set "PlanarConfiguration" before writing data. The organization of data  has  not
       be  defined  before  the first write. See TIFFSetField(3TIFF) for information on how to do
       this.

       %s: No space for tile arrays".  There was not enough space for the arrays that  hold  tile
       offsets and byte counts.
