Examples

The following example demonstrates how to retrieve the Author property of a given BitmapEncoder. You can use the same approach to retrieve other BitmapCodecInfo.

FileStream stream = new FileStream("empty.tif", FileMode.Create);
TiffBitmapEncoder encoder = new TiffBitmapEncoder();
TextBlock myTextBlock = new TextBlock();
myTextBlock.Text = "Codec Author is: " + encoder.CodecInfo.Author.ToString();
encoder.Frames.Add(BitmapFrame.Create(image));
MessageBox.Show(myPalette.Colors.Count.ToString());
encoder.Save(stream);

Dim stream As New FileStream("empty.tif", FileMode.Create)
Dim encoder As New TiffBitmapEncoder()
Dim myTextBlock As New TextBlock()
myTextBlock.Text = "Codec Author is: " + encoder.CodecInfo.Author.ToString()
encoder.Frames.Add(BitmapFrame.Create(image))
MessageBox.Show(myPalette.Colors.Count.ToString())
encoder.Save(stream)
