NAME

       gdk-pixbuf-csource - C code generation utility for GdkPixbuf images

SYNOPSIS

       gdk-pixbuf-csource [OPTION...] [IMAGE]

       gdk-pixbuf-csource [OPTION...] --build-list [[NAME] [IMAGE]...]

DESCRIPTION

       gdk-pixbuf-csource is a small utility that generates C code containing images, useful for compiling images directly into programs.

       gdk-pixbuf-csource either takes as input one image file name to generate code for, or, using the --build-list option, a list of (name,
       image) pairs to generate code for a list of images into named variables.

OPTIONS

       --stream
	   Generate pixbuf data stream (a single string containing a serialized GdkPixdata structure in network byte order).

       --struct
	   Generate GdkPixdata structure (needs the GdkPixdata structure definition from gdk-pixdata.h).

       --macros
	   Generate *_ROWSTRIDE, *_WIDTH, *_HEIGHT, *_BYTES_PER_PIXEL and *_RLE_PIXEL_DATA or *_PIXEL_DATA macro definitions for the image.

       --rle
	   Enables run-length encoding for the generated pixel data (default).

       --raw
	   Disables run-length encoding for the generated pixel data.

       --extern
	   Generate extern symbols.

       --static
	   Generate static symbols (default).

       --decoder
	   Provide a *_RUN_LENGTH_DECODE(image_buf, rle_data, size, bpp) macro definition to decode run-length encoded image data.

       --name=identifier
	   Specifies the identifier name (prefix) for the generated variables or macros (useful only if --build-list was not specified).

       --build-list
	   Enables (name, image) pair parsing mode.

       -h, --help
	   Print brief help and exit.

       -v, --version
	   Print version and exit.

       --g-fatal-warnings
	   Make warnings fatal (causes the program to abort).

SEE ALSO

       The GdkPixbuf documentation, shipped with the Gtk+ distribution, available from www.gtk.org[1].

BUGS

       The runlength encoder gets out of sync with the pixel boundaries, since it includes the rowstride padding in the encoded stream.
       Furthermore, it generates pixbufs with suboptimal rowstride in some cases.

NAME

       directfb-csource - C code generation utility for DirectFB surfaces

SYNOPSIS

       directfb-csource [options] <imagefiles>

DESCRIPTION

       directfb-csource is a small utility that reads PNG (Portable Network Graphics) image files and generates C code that can be used to compile
       an image into a DirectFB application.  Below is a simple example to illustrate this.

       If multiple PNG image files are passed to directfb-csource, they are combined into a single surface. The different images can then be blit-
       ted from this surface using the array of rectangles that is also dumped. This can be useful for example for icons or sprites.

OPTIONS

       --name=identifier
	      Specifies  the  identifier  name (prefix) for the generated variables.  If this option is not used, the identifier is generated from
	      the filename. You have to specify an identifer name when processing multiple images.

       --format=pixelformat
	      Specifies the pixel-format of the generated inline surface. Possible values are ARGB, RGB32, RGB24, RGB16,  RGB15,  RGB332,  A8  and
	      LUT8.  By default the format is ARGB if the PNG image has an alpha channel or RGB32 otherwise.

       --version
	      Output version information.

       --help Print brief help and exit.

EXAMPLE

       Generate a header file from a PNG image file:

	    directfb-csource --name=foo foo.png > foo.h

       Include the generated header in your application and create a surface using the surface description from the header file:

	 #include <directfb.h>
	 #include "foo.h"

	 IDirectFB	  *dfb;
	 IDirectFBSurface *surface;

	 ...

	 dfb->CreateSurface( dfb, &foo_desc, &surface );

OTHER INFO

       directfb-csource was inspired by and uses code from gdk-pixbuf-csource, a similar program written by Tim Janik.
