EnumerateImages


Header:AVL.h
Namespace:avl

Scans a disk directory for image files and then returns the images one by one in consecutive iterations.

Syntax

bool avl::EnumerateImages
(
	EnumerateFilesState& ioState,
	const atl::Directory& inDirectory,
	atl::Optional<avl::ImageFileFormat::Type> inFileType,
	avl::FileSortingOrder::Type inSortingOrder,
	bool inRepeat,
	bool inProcessSubdirectories,
	bool inInvert,
	bool inLoadAlphaChannel,
	avl::Image& outImage,
	atl::File& outFilePath,
	atl::String& outFileName,
	atl::Optional<bool> outIsFirst = atl::NIL,
	atl::Optional<bool> outIsLast = atl::NIL
)

Parameters

Name Type Default Description
ioState EnumerateFilesState& Object used to maintain state of the function.
inDirectory const Directory& Input directory
inFileType Optional<ImageFileFormat::Type> NIL File format of the images
inSortingOrder FileSortingOrder::Type Sorting order
inRepeat bool Determines whether to repeat reading directory after reading all files
inProcessSubdirectories bool Flag indicating whether to load images from the subdirectories or not
inInvert bool Flag indicating whether to enumerate images backwards or not
inLoadAlphaChannel bool Flag indicating whether to load alpha channel of the image or not
outImage Image& Output image
outFilePath File& Output file path
outFileName String& Output file name
outIsFirst Optional<bool> NIL Flag indicating the first iteration
outIsLast Optional<bool> NIL Flag indicating the last iteration

Optional Outputs

The computation of following outputs can be switched off by passing value atl::NIL to these parameters: outIsFirst, outIsLast.

Hints

  • Set inDirectory to specify where on your disk are the images you want to load.
  • This filter can also be added easily by dragging and dropping a disk directory from Windows Explorer to the Program Editor in Adaptive Vision Studio.
