In my algorithm, I need to create an information output. I need to write a boolean matrix into a bmp file. It must be a monocromic image, where pixels are white if the matrix on such element is true. Main problem is the bmp header and how to write this.
Generated Image:
The code does not use any library other than stdio.h. So, the code can be easily incorporated in other languages of C-Family, like- C++, C#, Java.

C++ answer, flexible API, assumes little-endian system to code-golf it a bit. Note this uses the bmp native y-axis (0 at the bottom).
#include <vector>
#include <fstream>
struct image
{
image(int width, int height)
: w(width), h(height), rgb(w * h * 3)
{}
uint8_t & r(int x, int y) { return rgb[(x + y*w)*3 + 2]; }
uint8_t & g(int x, int y) { return rgb[(x + y*w)*3 + 1]; }
uint8_t & b(int x, int y) { return rgb[(x + y*w)*3 + 0]; }
int w, h;
std::vector<uint8_t> rgb;

The best bitmap encoder is the one you do not write yourself. The file format is a lot more involved, than one might expect. This is evidenced by the fact, that all proposed answers do not create a monochrome (1bpp) bitmap, but rather write out 24bpp files, that happen to only use 2 colors.
The following is a Windows-only solution, using the Windows Imaging Component. It doesn't rely on any external/3rd party libraries, other than what ships with Windows.
Like every C++ program, we need to include several header files. And link to Windowscodecs.lib while we're at it:
#include <Windows.h>
#include <comdef.h>
#include <comip.h>
#include <comutil.h>
#include <wincodec.h>
#include <vector>
#pragma comment(lib, "Windowscodecs.lib")
Next up, we declare our container (a vector, of vectors! Of bool
!), and a few smart pointers for convenience:
using _com_util::CheckError;
using container = std::vector<std::vector<bool>>;
_COM_SMARTPTR_TYPEDEF(IWICImagingFactory, __uuidof(IWICImagingFactory));
_COM_SMARTPTR_TYPEDEF(IWICBitmapEncoder, __uuidof(IWICBitmapEncoder));
_COM_SMARTPTR_TYPEDEF(IWICBitmapFrameEncode, __uuidof(IWICBitmapFrameEncode));
_COM_SMARTPTR_TYPEDEF(IWICStream, __uuidof(IWICStream));
_COM_SMARTPTR_TYPEDEF(IWICPalette, __uuidof(IWICPalette));
With that all settled, we can jump right into the implementation. There's a bit of setup required to get a factory, an encoder, a frame, and get everything prepared:
void write_bitmap(wchar_t const* pathname, container const& data)
{
// Create factory
IWICImagingFactoryPtr sp_factory { nullptr };
CheckError(sp_factory.CreateInstance(CLSID_WICImagingFactory, nullptr,
CLSCTX_INPROC_SERVER));
// Create encoder
IWICBitmapEncoderPtr sp_encoder { nullptr };
CheckError(sp_factory->CreateEncoder(GUID_ContainerFormatBmp, nullptr, &sp_encoder));
// Create stream
IWICStreamPtr sp_stream { nullptr };
CheckError(sp_factory->CreateStream(&sp_stream));
CheckError(sp_stream->InitializeFromFilename(pathname, GENERIC_WRITE));
// Initialize encoder with stream
CheckError(sp_encoder->Initialize(sp_stream, WICBitmapEncoderNoCache));
// Create new frame
IWICBitmapFrameEncodePtr sp_frame { nullptr };
IPropertyBag2Ptr sp_properties { nullptr };
CheckError(sp_encoder->CreateNewFrame(&sp_frame, &sp_properties));
// Initialize frame with default properties
CheckError(sp_frame->Initialize(sp_properties));
// Set pixel format
// SetPixelFormat() requires a pointer to non-const
auto pf { GUID_WICPixelFormat1bppIndexed };
CheckError(sp_frame->SetPixelFormat(&pf));
if (!::IsEqualGUID(pf, GUID_WICPixelFormat1bppIndexed))
{
// Report unsupported pixel format
CheckError(WINCODEC_ERR_UNSUPPORTEDPIXELFORMAT);
}
// Set size derived from data argument
auto const width { static_cast<UINT>(data.size()) };
auto const height { static_cast<UINT>(data[0].size()) };
CheckError(sp_frame->SetSize(width, height));
// Set palette on frame. This is required since we use an indexed pixel format.
// Only GIF files support global palettes, so make sure to set it on the frame
// rather than the encoder.
IWICPalettePtr sp_palette { nullptr };
CheckError(sp_factory->CreatePalette(&sp_palette));
CheckError(sp_palette->InitializePredefined(WICBitmapPaletteTypeFixedBW, FALSE));
CheckError(sp_frame->SetPalette(sp_palette));
At that point everything is set up, and we have a frame to dump our data into. For 1bpp files, every byte stores the information of 8 pixels. The left-most pixel is stored in the MSB, with pixels following all the way down to the right-most pixel stored in the LSB.
The code isn't entirely important; you'll be replacing that with whatever suits your needs, when you replace the data layout of your input anyway:
// Write data to frame
auto const stride { (width * 1 + 7) / 8 };
auto const size { height * stride };
std::vector<unsigned char> buffer(size, 127u);
// Convert data to match required layout. Each byte stores 8 pixels, with the
// MSB being the leftmost, the LSB the right-most.
for (size_t x { 0 }; x < data.size(); ++x)
{
for (size_t y { 0 }; y < data[x].size(); ++y)
{
auto shift { x % 8 };
auto mask { 0x80 >> shift };
auto bit { mask * data[x][y] };
auto& value { buffer[y * stride + x / 8] };
value &= ~mask;
value |= bit;
}
}
CheckError(sp_frame->WritePixels(height, stride,
static_cast<UINT>(buffer.size()), buffer.data()));
What's left is to commit the changes to the frame and the encoder, which will ultimately write the image file to disk:
// Commit frame
CheckError(sp_frame->Commit());
// Commit image
CheckError(sp_encoder->Commit());
}
This is a test program, writing out an image to a file passed as the first command-line argument:
#include <iostream>
int wmain(int argc, wchar_t* argv[])
try
{
if (argc != 2)
{
return -1;
}
CheckError(::CoInitializeEx(nullptr, COINIT_APARTMENTTHREADED));
// Create 64x64 matrix
container data(64, std::vector<bool>(64, false));
// Fill with arrow pointing towards the upper left
for (size_t i { 0 }; i < data.size(); ++i)
{
data[0][i] = true;
data[i][0] = true;
data[i][i] = true;
}
::write_bitmap(argv[1], data);
::CoUninitialize();
}
catch (_com_error const& e)
{
std::wcout << L"Error!\n" << L" Message: " << e.ErrorMessage() << std::endl;
}
It produces the following image (true 1bpp, 574 bytes in size):
I just wanted to share an improved version of Minhas Kamal's code because although it worked well enough for most applications, I had a few issues with it still. Two highly important things to remember:
Below, you can see my revisions to his code:
const int bytesPerPixel = 4; /// red, green, blue
const int fileHeaderSize = 14;
const int infoHeaderSize = 40;
void generateBitmapImage(unsigned char *image, int height, int width, int pitch, const char* imageFileName);
unsigned char* createBitmapFileHeader(int height, int width, int pitch, int paddingSize);
unsigned char* createBitmapInfoHeader(int height, int width);
void generateBitmapImage(unsigned char *image, int height, int width, int pitch, const char* imageFileName) {
unsigned char padding[3] = { 0, 0, 0 };
int paddingSize = (4 - (/*width*bytesPerPixel*/ pitch) % 4) % 4;
unsigned char* fileHeader = createBitmapFileHeader(height, width, pitch, paddingSize);
unsigned char* infoHeader = createBitmapInfoHeader(height, width);
FILE* imageFile = fopen(imageFileName, "wb");
fwrite(fileHeader, 1, fileHeaderSize, imageFile);
fwrite(infoHeader, 1, infoHeaderSize, imageFile);
int i;
for (i = 0; i < height; i++) {
fwrite(image + (i*pitch /*width*bytesPerPixel*/), bytesPerPixel, width, imageFile);
fwrite(padding, 1, paddingSize, imageFile);
}
fclose(imageFile);
//free(fileHeader);
//free(infoHeader);
}
unsigned char* createBitmapFileHeader(int height, int width, int pitch, int paddingSize) {
int fileSize = fileHeaderSize + infoHeaderSize + (/*bytesPerPixel*width*/pitch + paddingSize) * height;

infoHeader[11] = (unsigned char)(height >> 24);
infoHeader[12] = (unsigned char)(1);
infoHeader[14] = (unsigned char)(bytesPerPixel * 8);
return infoHeader;
}
Here is a C++ variant of the code that works for me. Note I had to change the size computation to account for the line padding.
// mimeType = "image/bmp";
unsigned char file[14] = {
'B','M', // magic
0,0,0,0, // size in bytes
0,0, // app data
0,0, // app data

40,0,0,0, // info hd size
0,0,0,0, // width
0,0,0,0, // heigth

int w=waterfallWidth;
int h=waterfallHeight;
int padSize = (4-(w*3)%4)%4;
int sizeData = w*h*3 + h*padSize;
int sizeAll = sizeData + sizeof(file) + sizeof(info);
file[ 2] = (unsigned char)( sizeAll );
file[ 3] = (unsigned char)( sizeAll>> 8);
file[ 4] = (unsigned char)( sizeAll>>16);
file[ 5] = (unsigned char)( sizeAll>>24);

info[22] = (unsigned char)( sizeData>>16);
info[23] = (unsigned char)( sizeData>>24);
stream.write( (char*)file, sizeof(file) );
stream.write( (char*)info, sizeof(info) );
unsigned char pad[3] = {0,0,0};
for ( int y=0; y<h; y++ )
{
for ( int x=0; x<w; x++ )
{

if ( red < 0 ) red=0;
if ( red > 255 ) red=255;
long green = red;
long blue = red;
unsigned char pixel[3];
pixel[0] = blue;

pixel[2] = red;
stream.write( (char*)pixel, 3 );
}
stream.write( (char*)pad, padSize );
}
If you get strange colors switches in the middle of your image using the above C++ function. Be sure to open the outstream in binary mode:
imgFile.open(filename, std::ios_base::out | std::ios_base::binary);
Otherwise windows inserts unwanted characters in the middle of your file! (been banging my head on this issue for hours)
See related question here: Why does ofstream insert a 0x0D byte before 0x0A?
Note that the lines are saved from down to up and not the other way around.
Additionally, the scanlines must have a byte-length of multiples of four, you should insert fill bytes at the end of the lines to ensure this.
I edited ralf's htp code so that it would compile (on gcc, running ubuntu 16.04 lts). It was just a matter of initializing the variables.
