Method
GdkPixbuf.Pixbuf.save_to_buffer
Declaration [src]
gboolean
gdk_pixbuf_save_to_buffer (
  GdkPixbuf* pixbuf,
  gchar** buffer,
  gsize* buffer_size,
  const char* type,
  GError** error,
  ...
)
Description [src]
Saves pixbuf to a new buffer in format type, which is currently “jpeg”,
“png”, “tiff”, “ico” or “bmp”.
This is a convenience function that uses gdk_pixbuf_save_to_callback()
to do the real work.
Note that the buffer is not NUL-terminated and may contain embedded NUL
characters.
If error is set, FALSE will be returned and buffer will be set to
NULL. Possible errors include those in the GDK_PIXBUF_ERROR
domain.
See gdk_pixbuf_save() for more details.
