Description

These functions represent the core of the libMirage API. Before the library can be used, it must be initialized using mirage_initialize(), which loads the plugins containing image parsers and file filters. When library is no longer needed, it can be shut down using mirage_shutdown(), which unloads the plugins.

The core functions listed in this section enable enumeration of supported parsers and file filters. Most of the core functionality of libMirage, such as loading images, is encapsulated in MirageContext object, which can be obtained using GLib's g_object_new().

Details

MirageDebugMask

typedef struct {
    gchar *name;
    gint value;
} MirageDebugMask;

Structure containing debug mask information.

gchar *`name`;	name
