NAME

       TIFFWriteEncodedTile - 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 planes (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 TIFFErrorExtR() 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().

       %s: Must set "ImageWidth" before writing data:
          The  image's  width has not been set before the first write. See TIFFSetField() 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()  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.
