IWICBitmapSource interface (wincodec.h)
Exposes methods that refers to a source from which pixels are retrieved, but cannot be written back to.
Inheritance
The IWICBitmapSource interface inherits from the IUnknown interface. IWICBitmapSource also has these types of members:
Methods
The IWICBitmapSource interface has these methods.
| IWICBitmapSource::CopyPalette Retrieves the color table for indexed pixel formats. |
| IWICBitmapSource::CopyPixels Instructs the object to produce pixels. |
| IWICBitmapSource::GetPixelFormat Retrieves the pixel format of the bitmap source.. |
| IWICBitmapSource::GetResolution Retrieves the sampling rate between pixels and physical world measurements. |
| IWICBitmapSource::GetSize Retrieves the pixel width and height of the bitmap. |
Remarks
This interface provides a common way of accessing and linking together bitmaps, decoders, format converters, and scalers. Components that implement this interface can be connected together in a graph to pull imaging data through.
This interface defines only the notion of readability or being able to produce pixels. Modifying or writing to a bitmap is considered to be a specialization specific to bitmaps which have storage and is defined in the descendant interface IWICBitmap.
