Tina supports a number of different image types. From 8 bit unsigned characters to images of type Complex (a C structure with a pair of floats representing real and imaginary parts). Edges and other types of feature can be indexed through a generic pointer image.
Tina image structure definitions and typedefs (amongst other things) can be included with
#include <tina/sys/sys.h> #include <tina/image/imageDef.h>
function declarations with
#include <tina/image/imagePro.h>
programs should be compiled with the libraries
-ltinaImage -ltinaMath -ltinaSys
