Re: [Boost-users] [GIL] Inspecting any_image

Is it possible to find out which of allowed image formats any_image actually has?

For example, if image is loaded with code provided in dynamic_image.cpp:

   typedef boost::mpl::vector my_images_t;

   any_image dynamic_img;    jpeg_read_image("test.jpg",dynamic_img);

how to figure out which colorspace / layout loaded image have?

An any_image is derived from gil::variant which lets you get the index from the type vector you specified. There also is a member called "current_type_is()". But normally you don't need to cast an any_image to a specific type since it should behave like a normal image or view. Let me know if you have more questions. Regards, Christian
