MemoryImageSource

Name

MemoryImageSource

[Graphic: Figure from the text]

Description

The MemoryImageSource class allows you to create images completely in memory. You provide an array of data; it serves as an image producer for that data. In the 1.1 release, new methods support using this class for animation (notably setAnimated() and the various overrides of newPixels()).

Class Methods

addConsumer

public synchronized void addConsumer (ImageConsumer ic)

Parameters

ic

ImageConsumer requesting image data.

Implements

ImageProducer.addConsumer(ImageConsumer)

Description

Registers an ImageConsumer as interested in Image information.

isConsumer

public synchronized boolean isConsumer (ImageConsumer ic)

Parameters

ic

ImageConsumer to check.

Returns

true if ImageConsumer is registered with this ImageProducer, false otherwise.

Implements

ImageProducer.isConsumer(ImageConsumer)

newPixels

public synchronized void newPixels() (New)

Description

Notifies the MemoryImageSource that there is new data available. The MemoryImageSource notifies all ImageConsumers that there is new data, sending the full rectangle and notifying the consumers that the frame is complete.

public synchronized void newPixels (int x, int y, int w, int h, boolean framenotify) (New)

Parameters

x

x coordinate of the top left corner of the new image data.

y

y coordinate of the top left corner of the new image data.

w

Width of the new image data.

h

Height of the new image data.

Description

Notifies the MemoryImageSource that there is new data available. The MemoryImageSource notifies all ImageConsumers that there is new data in the rectangle described by x, y, w, and h. The consumers are notified that the frame is complete.

public synchronized void newPixels (int x, int y, int w, int h, boolean framenotify) (New)

Parameters

x

x coordinate of the top left corner of the new image data.

y

y coordinate of the top left corner of the new image data.

w

Width of the new image data.

h

Height of the new image data.

framenotify

Determines whether this is a complete frame or not.

Description

Notifies the MemoryImageSource that there is new data available. The MemoryImageSource notifies all ImageConsumers that there is new data in the rectangle described by x, y, w, and h. If framenotify is true, the consumers will also be notified that a frame is complete.

public synchronized void newPixels (byte[] newpix, ColorModel newmodel, int offset, int scansize) (New)

Parameters

newpix

New array of image data.

newmodel

The color model to use for the new data.

offset

Offset into the data array

scansize

Size of each line.

Description

Changes the image data for this MemoryImageSource and notifies its ImageConsumers that new data is available.

public synchronized void newPixels (int[] newpix, ColorModel newmodel, int offset, int scansize) (New)

Parameters

newpix

New array of image data.

newmodel

The color model to use for the new data.

offset

Offset into the data array

scansize

Size of each line.

Description

Changes the image data for this MemoryImageSource and notifies its ImageConsumers that new data is available.

removeConsumer

public void removeConsumer (ImageConsumer ic)

Parameters

ic

ImageConsumer to remove.

Implements

ImageProducer.removeConsumer(ImageConsumer)

Description

Removes an ImageConsumer from registered consumers for this ImageProducer.

requestTopDownLeftRightResend

public void requestTopDownLeftRightResend (ImageConsumer ic)

Parameters

ic

ImageConsumer requesting image data.

Implements

ImageProducer.requestTopDownLeftRightResend(ImageConsumer)

Description

Requests the retransmission of the Image data in top-down, left-to-right order.

setAnimated

public void setAnimated (boolean animated) (New)

Parameters

animated

Flag indicating whether this image is animated.

Description

To use this MemoryImageSource for animation, call setAnimated(true). The newPixels() methods will not work otherwise.

setFullBufferUpdates

public void setFullBufferUpdates (boolean fullbuffers) (New)

Parameters

fullbuffers

true to send full buffers; false otherwise.

Description

This method is only important for animations; i.e., you should call setAnimated(true) before using this function. If you do request to send full buffers, then any rectangle parameters passed to newPixels() will be ignored and the entire image will be sent to the consumers.

startProduction

public void startProduction (ImageConsumer ic)

Parameters

ic

ImageConsumer requesting image data.

Implements

ImageProducer.startProduction(ImageConsumer)

Description

Registers ImageConsumer as interested in Image information and tells ImageProducer to start sending the image data immediately.
