NAME
     TIFFbuffer, TIFFReadBufferSetup, TIFFWriteBufferSetup -  I/O
     buffering control routines

SYNOPSIS
     #include 
     int TIFFReadBufferSetup(TIFF*, tdata_t buffer, tsize_t size);
     int TIFFWriteBufferSetup(TIFF*, tdata_t buffer, tsize_t size);




     The following routines are provided  for  client-control  of
     the I/O buffers used by the library. Applications need never
     use these routines.  The  routines  are  provided  only  for
     "intelligent  clients"  that  wish  to optimize memory usage
     and/or eliminate potential copy operations  that  can  occur
     when  working  with  images  that  have  data stored without
     compression.


     TIFFReadBufferSetup sets up the data buffer used to read raw
     (encoded) data from a file. If the specified pointer is NULL
     (zero), then a buffer of the appropriate size is  allocated.
     Otherwise,  the  caller  must  guarantee  that the buffer is
     large enough to hold any individual strip of raw data.  TIF-
     FReadBufferSetup  returns  a non-zero value if the setup was
     successful.

     TIFFWriteBufferSetup sets up the data buffer used  to  write
     raw  (encoded)  data  to a file. If the specified size is -1
     then the buffer size is selected to hold a complete tile  or
     strip, or at least 8 kilobytes, whichever is greater. If the
     specified buffer is  NULL  (zero),  then  a  buffer  of  the
     appropriate  size is dynamically allocated. TIFFWriteBuffer-
     Setup returns a non-zero value if the setup was successful.

  Diagnostics
     %s: No space for data buffer at scanline %ld.

         TIFFReadBufferSetup was unable to  dynamically  allocate
         space for a data buffer.



     %s: No space for output buffer.

         TIFFWriteBufferSetup was unable to dynamically  allocate
         space for a data buffer.
