Description

TRasterImage is a TGraphic descendant which implements the base class for images displayed as rasterized pixels on a canvas. It is used as the ancestor class for TCustomBitmap (TBitmap) and TCustomIcon (TIcon).

TRasterImage introduces the shared properties and methods common to the image formats. It is also provides a shared, reference-counted image that reduces resource requirements in graphical applications. Support is provided for bitmaps which use DIB (Device-Independent Bitmap) or DDB (Device-Dependent Bitmap) handles as well as common pixel storage formats used in the RawImage data. Handles are provided for the Bitmap, Mask, and Palette resources used in an image. TRasterImage also includes a Canvas used to render the pixels for the image.

Many of the methods in TRasterImage are defined as abstract virtual methods, and must be implemented in a descendent class to provide support for a specific image format.
