Loading a KcsProfileFormat Object

The pointers to objects contained within the KcsProfileFormat object load themselves using the KcsChunkSet class. Figure 3-6 illustrates the process.

In Figure 3-6 , the KcsChunkSet class returns the blocks of data from the file, which were requested by the KcsAttributeSet and KcsXform objects. These objects interpret the block of data, turning it into tables for processing color data or sets of attributes. The KcsIO and KcsChunkSet classes do not interpret the data.

If the Solaris file system profile is successfully loaded, the framework increments the number of entries in the global profile array, and the profile Id is returned to the application.
