As for baseaddr.StringValue(0,1024), you might try creating a
Picture object and set the pixels to known values, then poke around
and if you can find them using these functions.
of course you're right on the size... i've spent too much time
playing with singles recently, and I read all the shorts as singles.
grm. anyways... still cant get a reasonable result for the ostype,
it seems MBS always returns "". so i wrote my own little function to
do it...
Function LongToOSType(Long as Integer) As string
Dim s As String
dim m as new MemoryBlock(4)
m.Long(0) = Long
s = Encodings.MacRoman.CHR(m.Byte(0)) +Encodings.MacRoman.CHR
(m.Byte(1)) + Encodings.MacRoman.CHR(m.Byte(2)) +
Encodings.MacRoman.CHR(m.Byte(3))
Return s
End Function
still im getting gibberish for the pixeltype. i was hoping to see
this work before i start digging around in the baseaddr more, but i'm
starting to wonder if RB isnt properly setting it?
