## AcquireMagickInfo

AcquireMagickInfo() allocates a MagickInfo structure and initializes the members to default values.

The format of the AcquireMagickInfo method is:

    MagickInfo *AcquireMagickInfo(const char *magick_module,
      const char *name,const char *description)

A description of each parameter follows:

magick_module
  a character string that represents the module associated with the MagickInfo structure.
name
  a character string that represents the image format associated with the MagickInfo structure.
description
  a character string that represents the image format associated with the MagickInfo structure.

## GetMagickPrecision

GetMagickPrecision() returns the maximum number of significant digits to be printed.

The format of the GetMagickPrecision method is:

    int GetMagickPrecision(void)

## IsMagickCoreInstantiated

IsMagickCoreInstantiated() returns MagickFalse if the ImageMagick environment has not been instantiated; the ImageMagick environment has been instantiated when MagickCoreGenesis() has been called but MagickDestroy() has not been called.

The format of the IsMagickCoreInstantiated method is:

    MagickBooleanType IsMagickCoreInstantiated(void)

## MagickCoreGenesis

MagickCoreGenesis() initializes the MagickCore environment.

The format of the MagickCoreGenesis function is:

    MagickCoreGenesis(const char *path,
      const MagickBooleanType establish_signal_handlers)

A description of each parameter follows:

path
  the execution path of the current ImageMagick client.
establish_signal_handlers
  set to MagickTrue to use MagickCore's own signal handlers for common signals.

## MagickCoreTerminus

MagickCoreTerminus() destroys the MagickCore environment.

The format of the MagickCoreTerminus function is:

    MagickCoreTerminus(void)

## SetMagickPrecision

SetMagickPrecision() sets the maximum number of significant digits to be printed.

An input argument of 0 returns the current precision setting.

A negative value forces the precision to reset to a default value according to the environment variable "MAGICK_PRECISION", the current 'policy' configuration setting, or the default value of '6', in that order.

The format of the SetMagickPrecision method is:

    int SetMagickPrecision(const int precision)

A description of each parameter follows:

precision
  set the maximum number of significant digits to be printed.
