Class BufferedImage

  extended by java.awt.Image
      extended by java.awt.image.BufferedImage
All Implemented Interfaces:
RenderedImage, WritableRenderedImage, Transparency

public class BufferedImage
extends Image
implements WritableRenderedImage, Transparency

The BufferedImage subclass describes an Image with an accessible buffer of image data. A BufferedImage is comprised of a ColorModel and a Raster of image data. The number and types of bands in the SampleModel of the Raster must match the number and types required by the ColorModel to represent its color and alpha components. All BufferedImage objects have an upper left corner coordinate of (0, 0). Any Raster used to construct a BufferedImage must therefore have minX=0 and minY=0.

This class relies on the data fetching and setting methods of Raster, and on the color characterization methods of ColorModel.

public static final int TYPE_BYTE_BINARY
Represents an opaque byte-packed 1, 2, or 4 bit image. The image has an IndexColorModel without alpha.

Images with 2 or 4 bits per pixel may be constructed via the BufferedImage constructor that takes a ColorModel argument by supplying a ColorModel with an appropriate map size.

Images with 8 bits per pixel should use the image types TYPE_BYTE_INDEXED or TYPE_BYTE_GRAY depending on their ColorModel.

When color data is stored in an image of this type, the closest color in the colormap is determined by the IndexColorModel and the resulting index is stored. Approximation and loss of alpha or color components can result, depending on the colors in the IndexColorModel colormap.

Constant Field Values

TYPE_BYTE_INDEXED

public static final int TYPE_BYTE_INDEXED
Represents an indexed byte image. When this type is used as the imageType argument to the BufferedImage constructor that takes an imageType argument but no ColorModel argument, an IndexColorModel is created with a 256-color 6/6/6 color cube palette with the rest of the colors from 216-255 populated by grayscale values in the default sRGB ColorSpace.

When color data is stored in an image of this type, the closest color in the colormap is determined by the IndexColorModel and the resulting index is stored. Approximation and loss of alpha or color components can result, depending on the colors in the IndexColorModel colormap.

                     IndexColorModel cm)
Constructs a BufferedImage of one of the predefined image types: TYPE_BYTE_BINARY or TYPE_BYTE_INDEXED.

If the image type is TYPE_BYTE_BINARY, the number of entries in the color model is used to determine whether the image should have 1, 2, or 4 bits per pixel. If the color model has 1 or 2 entries, the image will have 1 bit per pixel. If it has 3 or 4 entries, the image with have 2 bits per pixel. If it has between 5 and 16 entries, the image will have 4 bits per pixel. Otherwise, an IllegalArgumentException will be thrown.

Parameters:
width - width of the created image
height - height of the created image
imageType - type of the created image
cm - IndexColorModel of the created image
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if the imageType is not TYPE_BYTE_BINARY or TYPE_BYTE_INDEXED or if the imageType is TYPE_BYTE_BINARY and the color map has more than 16 entries.

BufferedImage

public BufferedImage(ColorModel cm,
                     WritableRaster raster,

Properties for this BufferedImage can be established by passing in a Hashtable of String/Object pairs.

Parameters:
cm - ColorModel for the new image
raster - Raster for the image data
isRasterPremultiplied - if true, the data in the raster has been premultiplied with alpha.
properties - Hashtable of String/Object pairs.
Throws:
RasterFormatException - if the number and types of bands in the SampleModel of the Raster do not match the number and types required by the ColorModel to represent its color and alpha components.
IllegalArgumentException - if raster is incompatible with cm

public WritableRaster getAlphaRaster()
Returns a WritableRaster representing the alpha channel for BufferedImage objects with ColorModel objects that support a separate spatial alpha channel, such as ComponentColorModel and DirectColorModel. Returns null if there is no alpha channel associated with the ColorModel in this image. This method assumes that for all ColorModel objects other than IndexColorModel, if the ColorModel supports alpha, there is a separate alpha channel which is stored as the last band of image data. If the image uses an IndexColorModel that has alpha in the lookup table, this method returns null since there is no spatially discrete alpha channel. This method creates a new WritableRaster, but shares the data array.

Returns:

An ArrayOutOfBoundsException may be thrown if the coordinates are not in bounds. However, explicit bounds checking is not guaranteed.

Parameters:
x - the X coordinate of the pixel from which to get the pixel in the default RGB color model and sRGB color space

With a specified coordinate (x, y) in the image, the ARGB pixel can be accessed in this way:

ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException - if both tileX and tileY are not equal to 0

Returns the image as one large tile. The Raster returned is a copy of the image data is not updated if the image is changed.

Specified by:
getData in interface RenderedImage
Returns:
a Raster that is a copy of the image data.
See Also:
setData(Raster)

getData

public Raster getData(Rectangle rect)
Computes and returns an arbitrary region of the BufferedImage. The Raster returned is a copy of the image data and is not updated if the image is changed.

Specified by:
getData in interface RenderedImage
Parameters:
rect - the region of the BufferedImage to be returned.
Returns:
a Raster that is a copy of the image data of the specified region of the BufferedImage
See Also:
setData(Raster)

copyData

public WritableRaster copyData(WritableRaster outRaster)
Computes an arbitrary rectangular region of the BufferedImage and copies it into a specified WritableRaster. The region to be computed is determined from the bounds of the specified WritableRaster. The specified WritableRaster must have a SampleModel that is compatible with this image. If outRaster is null, an appropriate WritableRaster is created.

Specified by:

Parameters:
tileX - the x index of the tile.
tileY - the y index of the tile.

Returns:
a Point array that indicates the tiles that are checked out for writing, or null if no tiles are checked out for writing.

hasTileWriters

Returns whether or not any tile is checked out for writing. Semantically equivalent to
 (getWritableTileIndices() != null).
 

Specified by:
hasTileWriters in interface WritableRenderedImage

getWritableTile

public WritableRaster getWritableTile(int tileX,
                                      int tileY)
Checks out a tile for writing. All registered TileObservers are notified when a tile goes from having no writers to having one writer.

Specified by:
getWritableTile in interface WritableRenderedImage
Parameters:
tileX - the x index of the tile
tileY - the y index of the tile
Returns:
a WritableRaster that is the tile, indicated by the specified indices, to be checked out for writing.

releaseWritableTile

public void releaseWritableTile(int tileX,
                                int tileY)
Relinquishes permission to write to a tile. If the caller continues to write to the tile, the results are undefined. Calls to this method should only appear in matching pairs with calls to getWritableTile(int, int). Any other leads to undefined results. All registered TileObservers are notified when a tile goes from having one writer to having no writers.

Specified by:
releaseWritableTile in interface WritableRenderedImage
Parameters:
tileX - the x index of the tile
tileY - the y index of the tile

getTransparency

public int getTransparency()
Returns the transparency. Returns either OPAQUE, BITMASK, or TRANSLUCENT.

Specified by:
getTransparency in interface Transparency
Returns:
the transparency of this BufferedImage.
