TIFFSetDirectory(3tiff)


NAME

   TIFFSetDirectory,  TIFFSetSubDirectory  - set the current directory for
   an open TIFF file

SYNOPSIS

   #include <tiffio.h>

   int TIFFSetDirectory(TIFF *tif, tdir_t dirnum)
   int TIFFSetSubDirectory(TIFF *tif, uint32 diroff)

DESCRIPTION

   TIFFSetDirectory changes the current directory and reads  its  contents
   with   TIFFReadDirectory.    The   parameter   dirnum   specifies   the
   subfile/directory as  an  integer  number,  with  the  first  directory
   numbered zero.

   TIFFSetSubDirectory acts like TIFFSetDirectory, except the directory is
   specified as a file offset instead of an index; this  is  required  for
   accessing subdirectories linked through a SubIFD tag.

RETURN VALUES

   On  successful return 1 is returned. Otherwise, 0 is returned if dirnum
   or diroff specifies a  non-existent  directory,  or  if  an  error  was
   encountered while reading the directory's contents.

DIAGNOSTICS

   All error messages are directed to the TIFFError(3TIFF) routine.

   %s:  Error  fetching  directory  count.  An error was encountered while
   reading the ``directory count'' field.

   %s: Error fetching directory link.   An  error  was  encountered  while
   reading the ``link value'' that points to the next directory in a file.
