Package javax.imageio Description

The main package of the Java Image I/O API.

Many common image I/O operations may be performed using the static methods of the ImageIO class.

This package contains the basic classes and interfaces for describing the contents of image files (IIOImage); for controlling the image reading process (ImageReader, ImageReadParam, and ImageTypeSpecifier) and image writing process (ImageWriter and ImageWriteParam); and for reporting errors (IIOException).

JSR-209 does not include the javax.imageio.spi and javax.imageio.metadata packages in this release. Compliant implementations of JSR-209 will need to implement ImageReaders and ImageWriters for the supported formats such that they are available to applications either through the ImageIO class or the creation of ImageInputStream or ImageOutputStream.
