Gdk.MemoryFormat
Description: Reference for Gdk.MemoryFormat

### Enumeration

# GdkMemoryFormat

#### Declaration

    enum Gdk.MemoryFormat

#### Description [src]

Describes formats that image data can have in memory.

It describes formats by listing the contents of the memory passed to it. So `GDK_MEMORY_A8R8G8B8` will be 1 byte (8 bits) of alpha, followed by a byte each of red, green and blue. It is not endian-dependent, so `CAIRO_FORMAT_ARGB32` is represented by different `GdkMemoryFormats` on architectures with different endiannesses.

Its naming is modelled after VkFormat for details).
