libtiff提供的TIFFOpen函数值能够从文件打开TIFF，如果想从内存流，或者数据库中的BLOB字段读取则不是很方便，或者我们会把流存为临时的TIFF文件再打开，那显然不很经济。关于如何从内存留读取TIFF格式图像数据，在libtiff的用户共享包里有个例子，参考：

contrib/mfs
code from Mike Johnson to read+write images in memory without modifying the library

You need TIFFClientOpen() function. And contrib/mfs directory even contains the code for working with the memory buffer. Regards, Andrey -- Andrey V. Kiselev Home phone: +7 812 5274898 ICQ# 26871517

Ann, The TIFFClientOpen() function allows you to pass in functions to be used for seeking, reading, writing and so forth. This can be used to access in memory datasets. The contrib/mfs directory contains one example of an "in memory" access implementation using this mechanism.
