81<p>You can define your own pixel iterators, locators, image views,
82images, channel types, color spaces and algorithms. You can make
83virtual images that live on the disk, inside a jpeg file, somewhere on
84the internet, or even fully-synthetic images such as the Mandelbrot
85set. As long as they properly model the corresponding concepts, they
86will work with any existing GIL code. Most such extensions require no
87changes to the library and can thus be supplied in another module.</p>
88</div>
89<div class="section" id="defining-new-color-spaces">
90<h2><a class="toc-backref" href="#id2">Defining new color spaces</a></h2>
91<p>Each color space is in a separate file. To add a new color space, just
92copy one of the existing ones (like rgb.hpp) and change it
93accordingly. If you want color conversion support, you will have to
94provide methods to convert between it and the existing color spaces
95(see color_convert.h). For convenience you may want to provide useful
96typedefs for pixels, pointers, references and images with the new
97color space (see typedefs.h).</p>

99<div class="section" id="defining-new-channel-types">
100<h2><a class="toc-backref" href="#id3">Defining new channel types</a></h2>
101<p>Most of the time you don&#8217;t need to do anything special to use a new
102channel type. You can just use it:</p>

106</pre></div>
107</div>
108<p>If you want to use your own channel class, you will need to provide a
109specialization of <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">channel_traits</span></code> for it (see channel.hpp). If you
110want to do conversion between your and existing channel types, you
111will need to provide an overload of <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">channel_convert</span></code>.</p>

113<div class="section" id="overloading-color-conversion">
114<h2><a class="toc-backref" href="#id4">Overloading color conversion</a></h2>
115<p>Suppose you want to provide your own color conversion. For example,
116you may want to implement higher quality color conversion using color
117profiles. Typically you may want to redefine color conversion only in
118some instances and default to GIL&#8217;s color conversion in all other
119cases. Here is, for example, how to overload color conversion so that
120color conversion to gray inverts the result but everything else
121remains the same:</p>

161<p>You can provide your own pixel iterators, locators and views,
162overriding either the mechanism for getting from one pixel to the next
163or doing an arbitrary pixel transformation on dereference. For
164example, let&#8217;s look at the implementation of <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">color_converted_view</span></code>
165(an image factory method that, given any image view, returns a new,
166otherwise identical view, except that color conversion is performed on
167pixel access). First we need to define a model of
168<code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">PixelDereferenceAdaptorConcept</span></code>; a function object that will be
169called when we dereference a pixel iterator. It will call

217<p>(The actual color convert view transformation is slightly more
218complicated, as it takes an optional color conversion object, which
219allows users to specify their own color conversion methods). See the
220GIL tutorial for an example of creating a virtual image view that
221defines the Mandelbrot set.</p>
