Detailed Description

template<class T>
class dirac::ArithCodec< T >

This is an abtract binary arithmetic encoding class, used as the base for concrete classes that encode motion vectors and subband residues.

Parameters:

T	a container (most probably, or array) type

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

template<class T >

dirac::ArithCodec< T >::ArithCodec	(	ByteIO *	p_byteio,
		size_t	number_of_contexts
	)

Creates an ArithCodec object to decode input based on a set of parameters.

Parameters:

p_byteio	input/output for encoded bits
number_of_contexts	the number of contexts used

template<class T>

virtual dirac::ArithCodec< T >::~ArithCodec ( )

inlinevirtual

Destructor is virtual as this class is abstract.

Member Function Documentation

template<class T>

int dirac::ArithCodec< T >::Compress

(

T &

in_data

)

Compress takes a type T object (a container or array) and compresses it using the abstract function DoWorkCode() which is overridden in subclasses. It returns the number of bits written.

Parameters:

in_data

the input to be compressed. Non-const, since the compression may be lossy.

template<class T>

void dirac::ArithCodec< T >::Decompress	(	T &	out_data,
		const int	num_bytes
	)

Decompresses the bitstream, up to the number of bytes specified and writes into the output subclasses.

Parameters:

out_data	the output into which the decompressed data is written.
num_bytes	the number of bytes to be read from the bitstream.
