API Reference

The Perfectly Clear SDK provides two main functional interfaces for integrating image correction capabilities into your applications.

C API

The native C library defined in PerfectlyClearPro.h provides the core SDK functionality and is the primary interface used across all platforms including Linux, macOS, and Windows.

• Functions — Core functions for image correction, engine management, and analysis
• Enums — Enumerations for pixel formats, correction modes, and status codes
• Structs — Parameter structures for configuring corrections
• Error Codes — Status codes and decode macros for error handling

.NET API

The .NET wrapper defined in PerfectlyClearAdapter.cs provides a managed interface for Windows development using C#, with function names and calling patterns that closely mirror the C API.

• Overview — .NET API overview and quick start
• Classes — Main classes and their methods
• Error Handling — Patterns for handling errors in .NET
• Exceptions — Exception types thrown by the SDK

Data Structures

These core types are shared across the SDK for representing images, engine instances, and analysis results.

• Data Structures — PFCIMAGE, PFCENGINE, PFCIMAGEPROFILE, and geometry types

Choosing an Interface

This table helps you select the appropriate interface based on your application requirements.

Both interfaces provide identical correction capabilities, and the .NET API is a wrapper around the C library so performance characteristics are equivalent.
