Description

This function gets array(s) of values from an image processing context.

The number of arrays and the nature of the values depend on the image processing context used and on the specified type of information to get. Before you can inquire the content of the array(s), they must be set using MimPut().

To determine the size of the arrays required to store the requested values, call this function and set Param1Ptr and Param2Ptr to M_NULL. Alternatively, when dealing with a dead pixel correction image processing context, to determine the size of the arrays required to store the X- and Y- coordinates of the dead pixels, you can also use MimInquire() with M_XY_DEAD_PIXELS_ARRAY_SIZE. When dealing with a rearrangement image processing context, to determine the size of the arrays required to store the X- and Y- coordinates of the areas to move from the source to the destination and to determine the number of areas to be copied, you can also use MimInquire() with M_XY_DESTINATION_ARRAY_SIZE, M_XY_SIZE_ARRAY_SIZE, and M_XY_SOURCE_ARRAY_SIZE, respectively.

Note that this function reference has not been updated for a MIL system added during a MIL update. Refer to the MIL system's release note to see if there is complementary information.
Parameters
This function is not supported on the selected boards.
Parameters
ContextImId

Specifies the identifier of the image processing context. The image processing context must have been previously allocated with MimAlloc().

See the Parameter associations section for possible values that can be specified.

GetType

Specifies the type of information in the array(s).

See the Parameter associations section for possible values that can be specified.

ArraySize

Specifies the number of values in the array(s).

Param1Ptr
Accepts the address of one of the following (see the Parameter associations section for specifics on which is expected):
  • array of type char
  • array of type MIL_DOUBLE
  • array of type MIL_FLOAT
  • array of type MIL_INT
  • array of type MIL_INT16
  • array of type MIL_INT32
  • array of type MIL_INT64

Specifies the address of the array in which to store the first set of values. Note that this parameter can be set to M_NULL when trying to establish the required size for the arrays.

See the Parameter associations section for possible values that can be returned.

Param2Ptr
Accepts the address of one of the following (see the Parameter associations section for specifics on which is expected):
  • array of type char
  • array of type MIL_DOUBLE
  • array of type MIL_FLOAT
  • array of type MIL_INT
  • array of type MIL_INT16
  • array of type MIL_INT32
  • array of type MIL_INT64

Specifies the address of the array in which to store the second set of values. Note that this parameter can be set to M_NULL when trying to establish the required size for the arrays.

Note that the second array must have the same number of elements as the first array.

See the Parameter associations section for possible values that can be returned.

ControlFlag

Reserved for future expansion and must be set to M_DEFAULT.

The table below lists possible values for the ContextImId and GetType parameters and possible values returned to the Param1Ptr and Param2Ptr parameters.

The following ContextImId, GetType, Param1Ptr, and Param2Ptr settings can be specified to get values from an image processing context.

Unless otherwise specified, the following values require that you pass the Param1Ptr parameter and the Param2Ptr parameter the address of an array of type MIL_INT with a size equal to a value large enough to hold the requested information. You can determine the required size by calling MimGet(), with Param1Ptr and Param2Ptr set to M_NULL.
