cmsOpenProfile(3)

NAME
     cmsOpenProfile - open a profile for read or write

SYNOPSIS
     #include <cms.h>

     int32 cmsOpenProfile (ctxt, name, prof);
     CMSContext ctxt;
     char *name;
     CMSProfile *prof;

DESCRIPTION
     cmsOpenProfile must be called before reading from or writing to a
     profile.  It must also be called before adding a profile to a transform.
     0me is a pointer to a null-terminated string.  prof is a pointer to a
     CMSProfile.  The profile will be initialized by the color management
     system, and can be used in subsequent calls.  Tag data is only avail from
     an open profile.  An attempt to open a non-existent file will result in
     an error, CMS_PROFILE_NOT_FOUND.

     Profiles may be specified using either absolute or relative paths. If no
     path prefix is found before the profile name, the CMS uses a profile
     search path to look for the profile.  The profile search path may be set
     with the environment variable CMS_PROFILE_PATH, which is a colon
     separated list of paths. If that variable is not set, a default path is
     used. The default path may be found in the header file "cms.h".

ERRORS
     CMS_OUT_OF_MEMORY
               There is not enough memory available to open the profile.

     CMS_PROFILE_NOT_FOUND
               No profile was found corresponding to name.
