Function Documentation

BufferTo()

template<class OutType >

OutType peak::BufferTo

(

const std::shared_ptr< peak::core::Buffer > &

buffer

)

Converts a core::Buffer into a different type.

This function converts the buffer into the format requested as template argument. Implement a template specialization for your custom data type yourself. For an example, have a look at the implementation to convert the buffer to a peak::ipl::Image, i.e. see file converters/peak_buffer_converter_ipl.hpp.

Usage:

auto image = peak::BufferTo<CustomImageType>(buffer);

Parameters

[in]

buffer

A core::Buffer that contains image data.

Returns

Image data in the requested image container/class.

Since

1.0

Exceptions

InvalidArgumentException	The given buffer is invalid.
InternalErrorException	An internal error has occurred.

BufferTo< peak::ipl::Image >()

template<>

peak::ipl::Image peak::BufferTo< peak::ipl::Image > ( const std::shared_ptr< peak::core::Buffer > &  buffer )

inline

Converts a core::Buffer into a peak::ipl::Image.

This creates a peak::ipl::Image as a shallow copy of the buffer (i.e. using the same memory). Remember that the buffer's memory is only under your control until you re-queue the buffer.

Note

To use this method, this file needs to be included explicitly:
