Method Detail

convertToRGB

public static RGB convertToRGB(java.awt.Color color)

Converts the specified AWT Color object to an RGB object.

convertToAWTColor

public static java.awt.Color convertToAWTColor(RGB color)

Converts the specified RGB object to an AWT Color object.

convertToRGBArray

public static RGB[][] convertToRGBArray(java.awt.Image image)

Converts the specified AWT Image object to an array of RGB objects. The array locations map to pixels in the image. The image will be converted to the standard RGB color model if it is not already and the alpha channel will be ignored.

convertToAWTImage

public static java.awt.Image convertToAWTImage(RGB[][] image)

Converts the specified array of RGB objects to an AWT Image object. The array locations map to pixels in the image. The image produced uses the RGB color model with no alpha channel.
