GifBitmapDecoder Class
Defines a decoder for Graphics Interchange Format (GIF) encoded images.
Assembly: PresentationCore (in PresentationCore.dll)
The following examples show how to decode and encode a Graphics Interchange Format (GIF) image using the specific GifBitmapDecoder and GifBitmapEncoder objects. For the complete sample, see GIF Encoder and Decoder Sample
This example demonstrates how to decode a GIF image using a GifBitmapDecoder from a FileStream.
// Open a Stream and decode a GIF image Stream imageStreamSource = new FileStream("tulipfarm.gif", FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read, FileShare.Read); GifBitmapDecoder decoder = new GifBitmapDecoder(imageStreamSource, BitmapCreateOptions.PreservePixelFormat, BitmapCacheOption.Default); BitmapSource bitmapSource = decoder.Frames[0]; // Draw the Image Image myImage = new Image(); myImage.Source = bitmapSource; myImage.Stretch = Stretch.None; myImage.Margin = new Thickness(20);
This example demonstrates how to encode a BitmapSource into a GIF image using a GifBitmapEncoder.
int width = 128; int height = width; int stride = width / 8; byte[] pixels = new byte[height * stride]; // Define the image palette BitmapPalette myPalette = BitmapPalettes.WebPalette; // Creates a new empty image with the pre-defined palette BitmapSource image = BitmapSource.Create( width, height, 96, 96, PixelFormats.Indexed1, myPalette, pixels, stride); FileStream stream = new FileStream("new.gif", FileMode.Create); GifBitmapEncoder encoder = new GifBitmapEncoder(); TextBlock myTextBlock = new TextBlock(); myTextBlock.Text = "Codec Author is: " + encoder.CodecInfo.Author.ToString(); encoder.Frames.Add(BitmapFrame.Create(image)); encoder.Save(stream);
