NAME

       TIFFFieldPassCount - Get whether to pass a count to TIFFGet/SetField

SYNOPSIS

       #include <tiffio.h>

       int TIFFFieldPassCount(const TIFFField* fip)

DESCRIPTION

       TIFFFieldPassCount  returns true (nonzero) if TIFFGetField and TIFFSetField expect a count
       value to be passed before the actual data pointer.

       fip is a field information pointer previously returned by TIFFFindField, TIFFFieldWithTag,
       or TIFFFieldWithName.

       When  a  count  is  required,  it  will  be of type uint32 when TIFFFieldReadCount reports
       TIFF_VARIABLE2, and of type uint16 otherwise.  (This distinction is critical  for  use  of
       TIFFGetField, but normally not so for use of TIFFSetField.)

RETURN VALUES

       TIFFFieldPassCount returns an integer that is always 1 (true) or 0 (false).
