 String ext)

Get a list of compatible ImageWriters compatible with a specific server.

Type Parameters:

T -

Parameters:

server -

ext -

Returns:

getCompatibleWriters(Class, String)

getCompatibleWriters

public static <T> List<ImageWriter<T>> getCompatibleWriters(Class<T> imageClass,
 String ext)

Get a list of compatible ImageWriters for a specific image class.

The returned list is sorted, with the 'preferred' server coming first. This decision is made based upon whether the writer supports pixel calibration information and

Type Parameters:

T -

Parameters:

imageClass - the image class (e.g. BufferedImage.class)

ext - the desired output file extension (e.g. ".jpg", ".tif").

Returns:

getCompatibleWriters(ImageServer, String)

writeImageRegion

public static boolean writeImageRegion(ImageServer<BufferedImage> server,
 RegionRequest request,
 String path)
                                throws IOException

Write a 2D image region using the default writer based on the file path.

Parameters:

server - the image to write

request - region to write; if null, the default plane of the entire image will be written

path - the file path; the extension will be used to identify an appropriate writer
