Class PngEncoder

public class PngEncoder extends Object

PngEncoder takes a Java Image object and creates a byte string which can be saved as a PNG file. The Image is presumed to use the DirectColorModel.

Method Detail

filterSub

protected void filterSub(byte[] pixels, int startPos, int width)
Perform "sub" filtering on the given row. Uses temporary array leftBytes to store the original values of the previous pixels. The array is 16 bytes long, which will easily hold two-byte samples plus two-byte alpha.
