Reshap array to display as image

[Moon-Sun]

From my camera I collected 512x512 data (type: long). They are saved in a one dimentional array. Now I want to call imaqDisplayImage (const Image *Image, int Window_Number, int Resize) to display my image. But the first step is to convert the array to image. So I use imaqArrayToImage (Image *Image, const void *Array, int Num_Cols, int Num_Rows) to convert the array to Image. But now the problem is that here "void *Array" is a 2 dimentional array, while my collected data is 1 dimentional array. Are there any function I can call to reshape my 1 D array to 2D array? I know that in Labview there is some array reshape functions.

Thank you.

Hi Moon

You can find array function references in the NI LabWindows/CVI Help under Library Reference>> Analysis Library >> Alphabetical list of functions. I looked and did not see a manipulate array command under this list, but it should be something fairly straight forward to implement with two for loops.

Old post, but probably still actual...

consider an image of size  width*height

int i, width, height, row, col;

unsigned short* array_1D;
unsigned short** array_2D;

// allocate memory for 2D array
array_2D = malloc(sizeof(unsigned short*) * height);
for(i=0; i<height; i++)
{
    array_2D[i] = malloc(sizeof(unsigned short) * width);
}  

// allocate memory for 1D array
    array_1D = malloc(sizeof(unsigned short) * width*height);

// copy values row-per-row from 2D array in 1D array
for(row = 0; row <  height; row++)
{
    for(col = 0; col < width; col++)
    {
        array_1D[(row*width)+col] = array_2D[row][col];
    }
} 

Best regards.
