McolAllocResult



Function Map
Synopsis
Allocate a color matching result buffer.
Syntax
MIL_ID McolAllocResult(
MIL_ID SystemId, //in
MIL_INT64 ResultType, //in
MIL_INT64 ControlFlag, //in
MIL_ID *ResultIdPtr //out
)
Description

This function allocates a result buffer, on the specified system, to store the results from an McolMatch() operation. You can read the results from the result buffer, using McolGetResult(). When the result buffer is no longer required, release its memory, using McolFree().

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 which MIL system’s documentation you should use in its place and any possible differences.
Parameters
This function is not supported on the selected boards.
This function reference has not been updated for the selected MIL system. To show the content of this page, choose a second MIL system; refer to the MIL system's release note to see which MIL system’s documentation to choose and any possible differences.
Parameters
SystemId INQ

Specifies the system on which to allocate the result buffer. This parameter should be set to one of the following values:

function map For specifying the system identifier
Click to summarizeValue Description
Click to summarize M_DEFAULT_HOST

Specifies the default Host system of the current MIL application.

Click to summarize MIL system identifier

Specifies a valid system identifier, previously allocated using MsysAlloc().

ResultType

Specifies the type of result buffer to allocate. This parameter can be set to one of the following values:

function map For specifying the type of result buffer to allocate
Click to summarizeValue Description
Click to summarize M_DEFAULT

Same as M_COLOR_MATCHING_RESULT.

Click to summarize M_COLOR_MATCHING_RESULT

Specifies to allocate a result buffer for color matching results.

ControlFlag

Reserved for future expansion and must be set to M_DEFAULT.

ResultIdPtr

Specifies the address of the variable in which to write the color matching result identifier. If allocation fails, M_NULL is returned as the identifier. Since McolAllocResult() also returns the color matching result identifier, you can set this parameter to M_NULL.

Return value
The returned value is the result buffer identifier if the allocation is successful. If allocation fails, M_NULL is returned.
