Detailed Description

A class containing image data and associated meta data.

This class is a lightweight container for image data and the description required for interpreting the data, such as the image format, its dimensions, number of sub-images (i.e. cubemap faces, mip levels and array sub-images). However, it does not provide any methods for interpreting or modifying of the image data.

The sub-images are stored in a predefined order compatible with the layout of DDS files, that is, it first stores the mip chain for each image, then all faces in a case of a cubemap, then the individual images of an image array.

Member Function Documentation

◆ ResetAndAlloc()

void ezImage::ResetAndAlloc ( const ezImageHeader header)

Constructs an image with the given header and ensures sufficient storage is allocated.

Note
If this ezImage was previously attached to external storage, this will reuse that storage. However, if the external storage is not sufficiently large, ResetAndAlloc() will detach from it and allocate internal storage.

◆ ResetAndCopy()

void ezImage::ResetAndCopy ( const ezImageView other)

Constructs from an image view. Copies the image data to internal storage.

If the image is currently attached to external storage, the attachment is discarded.

◆ ResetAndMove()

void ezImage::ResetAndMove ( ezImage &&  other)

Moves the given data into this object.

If other is attached to an external storage, this object will also be attached to it, so life-time requirements for the external storage are now bound to this instance.

◆ ResetAndUseExternalStorage()

void ezImage::ResetAndUseExternalStorage ( const ezImageHeader header,
ezByteBlobPtr  externalData 
)

Constructs an image with the given header and attaches to the user-supplied external storage.

The user is responsible to keep the external storage alive as long as this ezImage is alive.
