L_ChangeFromDDB

#include "l_bitmap.h"

L_INT EXT_FUNCTION L_ChangeFromDDB(hDC, pBitmap, uStructSize, hBitmap, hPalette)

HDC hDC;	/* handle to the device responsible for the conversion */
pBITMAPHANDLE pBitmap;	/* address of the LEAD bitmap handle */
L_UINT uStructSize;	/* size in bytes, of the structure pointed to by pBitmap */
HBITMAP hBitmap;	/* handle to the DDB to be changed */
HPALETTE hPalette;	/* handle to the palette */

Changes a Windows device dependent bitmap (DDB) to a LEAD bitmap. This function results in only one copy of the bitmap, and it invalidates the DDB handle.

Parameter	Description
hDC	Handle to the device responsible for the conversion. The mapping mode of the device context must be MM_TEXT.
pBitmap	Address of the LEAD bitmap handle.
uStructSize	Size in bytes, of the structure pointed to by pBitmap, for versioning. Use sizeof(BITMAPHANDLE).
hBitmap	Handle to the DDB to be changed.
hPalette	Handle to the palette. This value can be NULL if the hDC parameter refers to a device that is greater than 8 bits, or if the bitmap will use the system palette.

Returns

SUCCESS	The function was successful.
< 0	An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.

Comments

Before calling this function, you must declare the LEAD bitmap handle, but you should not allocate the bitmap, because the new bitmap handle will point to the previous DDB data after the function is called. (If the bitmap is already allocated, you must free it.)
