I have implemented a Gaussian blur to allow for the blurring of an image. This image is saved as 'stage2_blurred'. I then want to re-input this 'stage2_blurred' image to then make any pixels that are not black into white, and save the newly created image as 'stage2_threshold'. The code I have implemented is giving me an error within the parallel_for -

This is the line containing the error: int whitePixels = parallel_reduce(

and this is the error message: "a value of type "void" cannot be used to initialise an entity type of "int"

Can anyone direct me as to where I have gone wrong within my code please?

Any help is greatly appreciated. Code to follow:

outputBlurImage.convertToType(FREE_IMAGE_TYPE::FIT_BITMAP);
outputBlurImage.convertTo24Bits();
outputBlurImage.save("stage2_blurred.png");

//last part of part 2 

fipImage blurredImage;
blurredImage.load("stage2_blurred.png");

unsigned int width = blurredImage.getHeight();
unsigned int height = blurredImage.getWidth();

float pixels = width * height; 

fipImage outputThreshold;
outputThreshold = fipImage(FIT_BITMAP, width, height, 24);

vector<vector<RGBQUAD>> rgbValuesOutput;
rgbValuesOutput.resize(height, vector<RGBQUAD>(width));

int whitePixels = parallel_reduce(

    blocked_range2d<int, int>(0, height, 0, width),
    [&](const blocked_range2d<int, int>& range, int value)-> int {

    auto y1 = range.rows().begin();
    auto y2 = range.rows().end();
    auto x1 = range.cols().begin();
    auto x2 = range.cols().end();

    RGBQUAD rgb1;

    for (auto y = y1; y < y2; y++) {

        for (auto x = x1; x < x2; x++) {

            blurredImage.getPixelColor(x, y, &rgb1); //extracting pixels

            blurredImage.getPixelColor(x, y, &rgb1);

            if (rgbValuesOutput[y][x].rgbRed != 0 || rgbValuesOutput[y][x].rgbGreen != 0 || rgbValuesOutput[y][x].rgbBlue != 0) {

                rgbValuesOutput[y][x].rgbRed = 255;
                rgbValuesOutput[y][x].rgbGreen = 255;
                rgbValuesOutput[y][x].rgbBlue = 255;

                value += 1;
            }
            outputThreshold.setPixelColor(x, y, &rgbValuesOutput[y][x]);
            outputThreshold.save("stage2_threshold.png");
        }
    }
});
  • I am having trouble understanding your syntax... half your code is in that one line. "-> int {" in particular I have just never seen before and I *think* is what is kicking. – Sneaky Polar Bear Mar 06 '20 at 19:35
  • What library are you using/ is there any way you could make a minimally functional snippet that I could run on my system? – Sneaky Polar Bear Mar 06 '20 at 19:35
