mediaLib Library Functions           mlibVolumeFindMaxU8(3MLIB)



NAME
     mlibVolumeFindMaxU8,  mlibVolumeFindMaxS16   -   maximum
     intensity searching

SYNOPSIS
     cc [ flag... ] file... -lmlib [ library... ]
     #include 

     mlibstatus mlibVolumeFindMaxU8(mlibu8 *max,
          const mlibrays *rays);


     mlibstatus mlibVolumeFindMaxS16(mlibs16 *max,
          const mlibrays *rays);


DESCRIPTION
     Each function performs maximum intensity searching.


     It uses the following equation:

       max[i] = MAX{ rays->results[j][i]
                     j = 0, 1, ..., rays->nsteps[i] }



     where i = 0, 1, ..., rays->nrays - 1.

PARAMETERS
     The function takes the following arguments:

     max     Pointer to an array of rays->nrays maximum values of
             the samples in each ray.


     rays    Pointer to an mlibrays structure.  The  data  rays-
             >results  are organized with ray number (rather than
             ray step) varying fastest. Ray number and  ray  step
             are  the  output  of  the ray casting functions. The
             data might have values beyond the maximum step on  a
             ray.  For example, rays->results[rays->nsteps[i][i]
             on ray i might not equal 0.


RETURN VALUES
     The function returns MLIBSUCES if  successful.  Otherwise
     it returns MLIBFAILURE.
