Detailed Description

Thin wrapper around some of FITSIO's FITS file writing functions.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

FITSWriter::FITSWriter ( )

Constructor.

The constructor doesn't open any files. To open a file, call FITSWriter::open().

bool FITSWriter::open ( string fileName)

Creates a new FITS file with specified file name.

Parameters

fileName file name of the created file

Write FITS pixel data to the current HDU.

Note: Unlike FITSIO API, this method uses zero-based indexing of the pixel position.

Parameters

x	Position of the first pixel in `data` in the first dimension.
y	Position of the first pixel in `data` in the second dimension.
count	Number of pixels to write.
data	Pointer to the data to write.
type	Domain data type of the data (for example, `TFLOAT` for `float`).
