Declaration [src]

const char*
vips_image_get_history (
  VipsImage* image
)

Description [src]

This function reads the image history as a C string. The string is owned by VIPS and must not be freed.

VIPS tracks the history of each image, that is, the sequence of operations that generated that image. Applications built on VIPS need to call vips_image_history_printf() for each action they perform, setting the command-line equivalent for the action.

::: seealso vips_image_history_printf().

Return value

Returns:	`utf8`
	The history of `image` as a C string. Do not free!
	The data is owned by the instance.
	The string is a NUL terminated UTF-8 string.
