Struct Share 

pub struct Share {
    pub image: DynamicImage,
    pub share_type: ShareType,
    pub index: usize,
    pub total_shares: usize,
    pub original_width: u32,
    pub original_height: u32,
    pub block_size: usize,
    pub is_meaningful: bool,
}

Represents a single share in a visual cryptography scheme

Fields

image: DynamicImage

The share image data

share_type: ShareType

Type of the share

index: usize

Index of this share (e.g., share 1 of n)

total_shares: usize

Total number of shares in the scheme

original_width: u32

Original image dimensions (before any expansion)

original_height: u32

block_size: usize

Block size used for pixel expansion

is_meaningful: bool

Whether this is a meaningful share (with cover image)

Implementations

impl Share

pub fn new( image: DynamicImage, index: usize, total_shares: usize, original_width: u32, original_height: u32, block_size: usize, is_meaningful: bool, ) -> Self

Create a new share

pub fn dimensions(&self) -> (u32, u32)

Get the dimensions of the share image

pub fn to_binary(&self) -> ImageBuffer<Luma<u8>, Vec<u8>>

Convert share to binary (black and white)

pub fn is_compatible(&self, other: &Share) -> bool

Check if this share is compatible with another share for stacking

pub fn stack_binary(&self, other: &Share) -> ImageBuffer<Luma<u8>, Vec<u8>>

Stack this share with another using OR operation (for binary shares)

pub fn stack_and(&self, other: &Share) -> ImageBuffer<Luma<u8>, Vec<u8>>

Stack this share with another using AND operation (alternative method)

pub fn save(&self, path: &str) -> Result<(), ImageError>

Save the share to a file
