Preface
- The KCMS CMM Developer's Guide describes how to create a Kodak Color Management System (KCMS(TM)) color management module (CMM). It provides information on how to use the KCMS foundation library, which is a graphics porting interface (GPI) implemented in C++. These C++ interfaces link the device-independent layer of the KCMS library with the CMM and enable the flow of data from the application to the CMM.
- Use this manual with the KCMS CMM Reference Manual, which provides detailed information on all C++ classes in the KCMS foundation library.
Who Should Use This Guide
- Use this guide if you are a C++ programmer interested in:
-
- Writing your own color management module (CMM)
- Creating your own profile format
- Adding attributes or tags to the ICC profile format
- Overriding various class methods
Before You Read This Guide
- Check all of the following for any KCMS-specific or system release-specific information that you might need:
-
How This Guide Is Organized
-
Chapter 1, "Class Descriptions," briefly describes each of the relevant classes in the KCMS CMM class hierarchy.
-
Chapter 2, "CMM : A Runtime Derivative," describes how to create a CMM that is a runtime derivative. It also discusses each of the KCMS classes from which you can derive or extend.
-
Chapter , "KCMS Framework Operations," provides examples of how some of the C++ methods interface with the KCMS framework API.
-
Chapter 4, "KcsIO Derivative," describes how to derive from the KcsIO base class.
-
Chapter 5, "KcsProfile Derivative," describes how to derive from the KcsProfile base class.
-
Chapter 6, "KcsProfileFormat Derivative," describes how to derive from the KcsProfileFormat base class.
-
Chapter 7, "KcsXform Derivative," describes how to derive from the KcsXform base class.
-
Chapter 8, "KcsStatus Extension," describes how to extend the KcsStatus base class.
-
Appendix A, "Supported Devices," describes how to name and install your own profile.

Note - The term "x86" refers to the Intel 8086 family of microprocessor chips, including Pentium and Pentium Pro processors and compatible microprocessor chips made by AMD and Cyrix. In this document, the term "x86" refers to the overall platform architecture, whereas "Intel Platform Edition" appears in the product name.
What Typographic Changes and Symbols Mean
- The following table describes the type changes and symbols used in this guide:.

Equivalent Terms In This Guide
- For historic reasons, this guide uses several equivalent Kodak and ICC terms. The terms evolved at different times. Development of the ICC specification introduced new ICC terms with meanings the same as (or similar to) already existing Kodak terms.
- You should be familiar with the terms listed in the table below, as you will encounter them in the ICC specification and KCMS color management documentation, as well as in the KCMS header files and example programs. The terms are defined as they are introduced in this guide.
-
Table P-3
| Kodak Term | ICC Term |
|
| attribute | tag |
| device color profile (DCP) | input, display, or output profile |
| effects color profile (ECP) | abstract profile |
| complete color profile (CCP) | device link profile |
| profile format Id or magic number | profile file signature |
| reference color space (RCS) | profile connection space (PCS) |
-
Note - The text in this guide uses the term attribute instead of tag, (but code examples and header files may use tag for the historic reasons previously mentioned.
