Java TGA loader

I am looking for a small and free TGA image loading clas开发者_StackOverflows or library for java. Ideally the result is a BufferedImage.

Yes, I have already googled, but most results are outdated, or are quite big libraries that contain a lot of other stuff i dont need. I am looking for something small and simple that reads just TGA images.

Thanks!

I had uncompressed targa images, so had to tweak example code. Here is my edit it should support uncompressed targa 24bit BGR and 32bit BGRA

// http://paulbourke.net/dataformats/tga/

                byte[] buf = new byte[(int)f.length()];
                BufferedInputStream bis = new BufferedInputStream(new FileInputStream(f));
                bis.read(buf);
                bis.close();
                return decode(buf);
        }

        private static int offset;

        private static int btoi(byte b) {
                int a = b;
                return (a<0?256+a:a);
        }

        private static int read(byte[] buf) {
                return btoi(buf[offset++]);
        }

        public static BufferedImage decode(byte[] buf) throws IOException {

We use this class copied from some open source project to read TGA files. It's really old. It can only handle Targa files with most basic encoding. Give it a try.

public class TargaReader
{
        public static Image getImage(String fileName) throws IOException
        {
                File f = new File(fileName);
                byte[] buf = new byte[(int)f.length()];
                BufferedInputStream bis = new BufferedInputStream(new FileInputStream(f));
                bis.read(buf);
                bis.close();
                return decode(buf);
        }

        }

        private static int read(byte[] buf)
        {
                return btoi(buf[offset++]);
        }

        public static Image decode(byte[] buf) throws IOException

I've added a standalone copy of Reality Interactive's ImageIO TGA library here (LGPL):

https://github.com/tmyroadctfig/com.realityinteractive.imageio.tga

Just add the the jar file to your classpath and register with ImageIO:

IIORegistry registry = IIORegistry.getDefaultInstance();
registry.registerServiceProvider(
    new com.realityinteractive.imageio.tga.TGAImageReaderSpi());

Just in case anyone is looking for the Android version of this (I had to replace BufferedImage with Bitmap).

Thanks for sharing it!

I've made some changes to improve performance. I'm only doing BGRA 32 Bits file decrypt, but it can help others people.

public static BufferedImage createTGAImage(byte[] buff) throws IOException {
    int offset = 0, width = 0, height = 0;
    int[] tgaBuffer = null;

    if (buff[2] == 0x02) { // BGRA File

        offset = 12;
        width = (buff[offset + 1] << 8 | buff[offset]);

        offset = 14;
        height = (buff[offset + 1] << 8 | buff[offset]);

        int colorDepth = buff[offset + 2];

        if (colorDepth == 0x20) { // 32 bits depth
            offset = 18;

            int count = width * height;
            tgaBuffer = new int[count];

            for (int i = 0; i < count; i++) {
                byte b = buff[offset++]; //This is for didatic prupose, you can remove it and make inline covert.
                byte g = buff[offset++];
                byte r = buff[offset++];
                byte a = buff[offset++];

                tgaBuffer[i] = ((a & 0xFF) << 24 | (r & 0xFF) << 16 | (g & 0xFF)<< 8 | b & 0xFF);
            }
        }
    }

    BufferedImage result = new BufferedImage(width, height, BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_ARGB);
    result.setRGB(0, 0, width, height, tgaBuffer, 0, width);

    return result;
}
