Detailed Description

Select, read, manipulate and write ICC Profiles in memory and on disk.

To open a profile exist several methods in the oyProfile_Fromxxx APIs. oyProfile_FromStd(), oyProfile_FromFile() and oyProfile_FromMem() are basic profile open functions. oyProfile_FromSignature() is used for creating a dummy profile during profile filtering. oyProfile_FromMD5() is a lookup function from a profile hash, e.g. as provided by a 'psid' tag.
Profile properties can be obtained from oyProfile_GetSignature(), like color spaces, date, magic number and so on. oyProfile_GetChannelNames(), oyProfile_GetText() and oyProfile_GetID() provide additional informations.
The profile element functions have Tag in their names. They work together with the oyProfileTag_s APIs.
oyProfile_GetFileName() is a reverse lookup to obtain the name of a installed file from a profile, e.g. find the name of a reachable display profile.

The oyProfiles_Create() allows to create profile lists with fine grained control. oyProfiles_ForStd() creates a list of profiles suitable to be set as default profiles according to the oyPROFILE_e categories. oyProfiles_DeviceRank() can be used together with a given device so sort for a the best match in descenting order.

Low level APIs to obtain pure filenames and handle raw bits are in place:

• Profile Lists API - provides the ICC profile search path content as string list
• Profile Handling API - low level ICC profile I/O and more
