TIFFDeferStrileArrayWriting
===========================
Synopsis
--------
.. highlight:: c
::
#include <tiffio.h>
.. c:function:: int TIFFDeferStrileArrayWriting(TIFF* tif)
.. c:function:: int TIFFForceStrileArrayWriting(TIFF* tif)
Description
-----------
:c:func:`TIFFDeferStrileArrayWriting` is an advanced writing function
that must be used in a particular sequence, and generally together
with :c:func:`TIFFForceStrileArrayWriting`, to achieve its intended
effect. Their aim is to control when and where the
``StripOffsets`` / ``StripByteCounts`` or ``TileOffsets`` / ``TileByteCounts``
arrays are written into the file.
The purpose of this is to generate 'cloud-optimized geotiff' files where
the first KB of the file only contain the IFD entries without the potentially
large strile arrays. Those are written afterwards.
More precisely, when :c:func:`TIFFWriteCheck` is called, the tag entries for
those arrays will be written with type = count = offset = 0 as a temporary value.
Its effect is only valid for the current directory, and before
:c:func:`TIFFWriteDirectory` is first called, and will be reset
when changing directory.
The typical sequence of calls is:
.. highlight:: c
::
TIFFOpen()
/* or TIFFCreateDirectory(tif) */
/* Set fields with calls to TIFFSetField(tif, ...) */
TIFFDeferStrileArrayWriting(tif)
TIFFWriteCheck(tif, ...)
TIFFWriteDirectory(tif)
/* ... potentially create other directories and come back to the above directory */
TIFFForceStrileArrayWriting(tif) /* emit the arrays at the end of file */
Returns
-------
1 in case of success, 0 otherwise.
Diagnostics
-----------
All error messages are directed to the :c:func:`TIFFErrorExtR` routine.
Likewise, warning messages are directed to the :c:func:`TIFFWarningExtR` routine.
