Image::Info::BMP3pm

Usage

 use Image::Info qw(image_info dim);
 my $info = image_info("image.bmp");
 if (my $error = $info->{error}) {
     die "Can't parse image info: $error\n";
 }
 my $color = $info->{color_type};
 my($w, $h) = dim($info);

Overview

This module supplies the standard key names except for Gamma, Interlace, LastModificationTime, as well as:

BMP_ColorsImportant

Specifies the number of color indexes that are required for displaying the bitmap. If this value is zero, all colors are required.

BMP_Origin

If true the bitmap is a bottom-up DIB and its origin is the lower-left corner. Otherwise, the bitmap is a top-down DIB and its origin is the upper-left corner.

ColorPalette

Reference to an array of all colors used. This key is only present if "image_info" is invoked as "image_info($file, ColorPalette=>1)".

ColorTableSize

The number of colors the image uses. If 0 then this is a true color image. The number of colors available is 2 ^ BitsPerSample.

Methods

        $info->process_file($source, $options);

Notes

For more information about BMP see <http://msdn.microsoft.com>.

Random notes:

  warn if height is negative and compress is not RGB or BITFILEDS (0 or 3)
  ICO and CUR support?
  ### v5
  If bit depth is 0, it relies upon underlying JPG/PNG :-(

Diagnostics

Size mismatch

The image may be correct, but the filesize does not match the internally stored value.
