Hi guys,
Before anything, I admit that probably my question is not an specifically Gtkmm question... but nevertheless I think you may know how Gdk::Pixbuf is done...
Having the following,
Glib::RefPtr<Gdk::Pixbuf> ref_orig = Gdk::Pixbuf::create_from_file ("./file.png");
I'm trying to temporary store (because I need so) the image data into a std::string object. It seems that get_pixels() could solve the problem, getting a pointer of type guint8.
So, I wrote as follows,
std::string image_pixels (reinterpret_cast<const char *>(ref_orig->get_pixels()), ref_orig->get_rowstride());
Glib::RefPtr<Gdk::Pixbuf> ref_dest = Gdk::Pixbuf::create_from_data (
reinterpret_cast<const guint8*>(image_pixels.c_str()),
Gdk::COLORSPACE_RGB, ref_orig->get_has_alpha(), ref_orig->get_bits_per_sample(), ....);
But, unfortunatelly the ref_dest image does not remain the same as ref_orig... Why ?
