TIFFWriteTile(3TIFF)

NAME
     TIFFWriteTile - encode and write a tile of data to an open TIFF file

SYNOPSIS
     #include <tiffio.h>

     tsize_t TIFFWriteTile(TIFF *tif, tdata_t buf, uint32 x

DESCRIPTION
     Write the data for the tile containing the specified coordinates. The
     data in buf are is (potentially) compressed, and written to the indicated
     file, normally being appended to the end of the file. The buffer must be
     contain an entire tile of data. Applications should call the routine
     TIFFTileSize to find out the size (in bytes) of a tile buffer. The x and
     y parameters are always used by TIFFWriteTile.  The z parameter is used
     if the image is deeper than 1 slice (ImageDepth>1).  The sample parameter
     is used only if data are organized in separate planes
     (PlanarConfiguration=2).

RETURN VALUES
     TIFFWriteTile returns -1 if it detects an error; otherwise the number of
     bytes in the tile is returned.

DIAGNOSTICS
     All error messages are directed to the TIFFError(3TIFF) routine.
