PXL_Raster - problem loading from file

[diula]

Hello,

I have a problem while trying to use PXL_Raster class (I'm using this as I need to read from a floating point image, and as far as I can tell IMG_Raster is 8/16 bits only). I'm trying to read a file, but it always fails - tried different formats (pic/tiff/etc). The way I'm using it is as follows:

std::string iname = "myfile.tiff";     
UT_IFStream istream( iname.c_str() );     
PXL_Raster  img;      

if( !img.load( istream ) ) {
    cerr << "Could not read image!" << endl;     
    return 1;     
}

Any tips: I am doing sth wrong, or is that the intended usage of the class?

Use IMG_File. First call open() to specify your image and then readImages() to parse specific image format data into a PXL_Raster. Don't forget to delete your PXL_Raster objects when done.
