<p>GetAuthenticPixels() obtains a pixel region for read/write access. If the region is successfully accessed, a pointer to a Quantum array representing the region is returned, otherwise NULL is returned.</p>

<p>The returned pointer may point to a temporary working copy of the pixels or it may point to the original pixels in memory. Performance is maximized if the selected region is part of one row, or one or more full rows, since then there is opportunity to access the pixels in-place (without a copy) if the image is in memory, or in a memory-mapped file. The returned pointer must *never* be deallocated by the user.</p>

<p>Pixels accessed via the returned pointer represent a simple array of type Quantum.  If the image has corresponding metacontent,call GetAuthenticMetacontent() after invoking GetAuthenticPixels() to obtain the meta-content corresponding to the region.  Once the Quantum array has been updated, the changes must be saved back to the underlying image using SyncAuthenticPixels() or they may be lost.</p>

<p>GetVirtualPixels() returns an immutable pixel region. If the region is successfully accessed, a pointer to it is returned, otherwise NULL is returned.  The returned pointer may point to a temporary working copy of the pixels or it may point to the original pixels in memory. Performance is maximized if the selected region is part of one row, or one or more full rows, since there is opportunity to access the pixels in-place (without a copy) if the image is in memory, or in a memory-mapped file.

<p>If you plan to modify the pixels, use GetAuthenticPixels() instead.</p>

<p>Note, the GetVirtualPixels() and GetAuthenticPixels() methods are not thread- safe.  In a threaded environment, use GetCacheViewVirtualPixels() or GetCacheViewAuthenticPixels() instead.</p>

<h2><a href="http://www.imagemagick.org/api/MagickCore/cache_8c.html" id="QueueAuthenticPixels">QueueAuthenticPixels</a></h2>

<p>QueueAuthenticPixels() queues a mutable pixel region.  If the region is successfully initialized a pointer to a Quantum array representing the region is returned, otherwise NULL is returned.  The returned pointer may point to a temporary working buffer for the pixels or it may point to the final location of the pixels in memory.</p>

<p>Write-only access means that any existing pixel values corresponding to the region are ignored.  This is useful if the initial image is being created from scratch, or if the existing pixel values are to be completely replaced without need to refer to their pre-existing values. The application is free to read and write the pixel buffer returned by QueueAuthenticPixels() any way it pleases. QueueAuthenticPixels() does not initialize the pixel array values. Initializing pixel array values is the application's responsibility.</p>

<p>Performance is maximized if the selected region is part of one row, or one or more full rows, since then there is opportunity to access the pixels in-place (without a copy) if the image is in memory, or in a memory-mapped file. The returned pointer must *never* be deallocated by the user.</p>

<p>Pixels accessed via the returned pointer represent a simple array of type Quantum. If the image type is CMYK or the storage class is PseudoClass, call GetAuthenticMetacontent() after invoking GetAuthenticPixels() to obtain the meta-content (of type void) corresponding to the region. Once the Quantum (and/or Quantum) array has been updated, the changes must be saved back to the underlying image using SyncAuthenticPixels() or they may be lost.</p>
