NAME

xil_cis_get_compressor − return the name of a specific compressor

SYNOPSIS

#include <xil/xil.h>

char ∗xil_cis_get_compressor (XilCis cis);

DESCRIPTION

This function returns a character pointer to a string description of a specific compressor for the cis (the specified compressed image sequence). 

NOTES

This routine is very similar in operation to xil_cis_get_compression_type(3).  In the future, there may be different types of JPEG compressions from different vendors, and this routine will be used to distinguish between them. 

For example, any cis that returns a type of JPEG through a call to xil_cis_get_compression_type(3) should be able to decode a valid JPEG bitstream. 

ERRORS

For a complete list of XIL error messages by number, consult Appendix B of the XIL Programmer’s Guide. 

EXAMPLES

XilCis cis;
