    • getArgb

      public abstract int getArgb(T buf, int x, int y, int scanlineStride)
      Reads pixel data from the buffer at the specified coordinates and converts it to a 32-bit integer representation of the color in the INT_ARGB format. The 32-bit integer will contain the 4 color components in separate 8-bit fields in ARGB order from the most significant byte to the least significant byte. The buffer should be positioned to the start of the pixel data such that buf.get(0) would return the pixel information for the pixel at coordinates (0, 0). The scanlineStride parameter defines the distance from the pixel data at the start of one row to the pixel data at the start of the immediately following row at the next higher Y coordinate. Usually, scanlineStride is the same as the width of the image multiplied by the number of data elements per pixel (1 for the case of the integer and indexed formats, or 3 or 4 in the case of the byte formats), but some images may have further padding between rows for alignment or other purposes.

      The color components can be extracted from the returned integer using the following sample code: 

           int alpha = ((retval >> 24) & 0xff);
     int red   = ((retval >> 16) & 0xff);
     int green = ((retval >>  8) & 0xff);
     int blue  = ((retval      ) & 0xff);
      Parameters:
      buf - the buffer of pixel data
      x - the X coordinate of the pixel to be read
      y - the Y coordinate of the pixel to be read
      scanlineStride - the number of buffer elements between the start of adjacent pixel rows in the buffer
      Returns:
      a 32-bit value with the color of the pixel in a format similar to the INT_ARGB pixel format
