Overview

ToolBox provides collection of Boost.GIL extensions which are too small to be maintained as standalone extensions.

Content:

• Color converters: Gray to RGBA

• Color spaces: CMYKA, Gray with Alpha, HSL, HSV, Lab, XYZ

• Metafunctions:

  • channel_type

  • channel_type_to_index

  • get_num_bits

  • get_pixel_type

  • is_bit_aligned

  • is_homogeneous

  • is_similar

  • pixel_bit_size

• Image types:

  • indexed_image

This extension will hopefully be added on by the community.

Since the extension is header-only, user just needs to include its main header #include <boost/gil/extension/toolbox.hpp>.

All definitions of the toolbox belong to the boost::gil namespace.

Folder Structure

The toolbox structured in the following sub-directories:

• color_converters
