MMACH (lmmach) functions
LIBRARY ROUTINE
lvsymdif - Compares two images pixel by pixel and shows different pixels.
LIBRARY CALL
int
lvsimdif(xvimage *img1, xvimage *img2, xvimage *img3, int mflg, xvimage *img4)
INPUT
none
OUTPUT
none
RETURN VALUE
TRUE (1) on success, FALSE (0) on failure
DESCRIPTION
lvsimdif
compares two imput images pixel by pixel and shows the pixels that are different. img1 and img2 are the input images. img3 is the gating image, and mflg should be set to 1 if the gating image is to be used. img4 is the output image. Note that img1 or img2 can be used for both input and resulting output xvimage structure, in order to save space.
A non-zero mask pixel in img2 enables the output pixel to contain the closing. A zero mask pixel in img2 just transfers the value of the corresponding pixel in img1 to the output pixel.
The input and mask images must be of the same size, data type, and have
the same number of data bands.

RESTRICTIONS
lvsimdif can be defined for all data types supported by khoros, but at the moment it is implemented only for bit and unsigned char images.
Due to the simultaneous processing of 32 pixels in BIT images, input images of the BIT data type must be converted to a special data structure before the library is called. This can be accomplished by using the format routine. After the library call, the unformat routine can convert the image back to the BIT data type.
