Convert System::Drawing::Bitmap^ to Pix* (leptonica)
I have a Bitmap in memory which gets passed into my library from a C# application. I need to convert it into a leptonica Pix* to pass it into tesseract. Conversely, I'm going to have to take the Pix* from the thresholded image and convert it back to a Bitmap to return it to the C# application but I'm not there yet. Here's my code to go from Bitmap to Pix:
Pix* OcrProcessor::ToPix(Bitmap^ bitmap)
const auto rect = new Drawing::Rectangle(0, 0, bitmap->Width, bitmap->Height);
const auto bitmap_data = bitmap->LockBits(*rect, ImageLockMode::ReadOnly, bitmap->PixelFormat);
auto ptr = bitmap_data->Scan0;
const auto bytes = Math::Abs(bitmap_data->Stride) * bitmap->Height;
const auto rgb_values = gcnew array<unsigned char>(bytes);
Marshal::Copy(ptr, rgb_values, 0, bytes);
auto handle = GCHandle::Alloc(rgb_values, GCHandleType::Pinned);
const auto data = static_cast<unsigned char*>(static_cast<void*>(handle.AddrOfPinnedObject()));
const auto converted = pixReadMemBmp(data, bytes);
bitmap->UnlockBits(bitmap_data);
delete rect;
return converted;
The Pix* converted is always null at the end. Stepping through the code, rgb_values is always an array filled with 255 throughout instead of being filled with the bitmap data. I'm not heavily invested in this particular method, if anyone has a working method to accomplish what I'm looking for.

That function looks pretty funky, pixReadMemBmp() needs to know how the bitmap is organized to interpret the pixel data correctly. The pixel format matters a lot. Its implementation is not encouraging. But unsurprising. If you can't find a better way in that library then you may have to save it to a temp file.
