L_CreateUserMatchTable
#include "l_bitmap.h"
L_UINT L_FAR * EXT_FUNCTION L_CreateUserMatchTable(pPalette, uColors)
LPRGBQUAD pPalette; |
/* array of values that is your palette */ |
L_UINT uColors; |
/* number of colors in your palette */ |
Creates a table that speeds color conversion when using a palette that you create. The table is referenced by the L_ColorResBitmap function.
Parameter |
Description |
|
pPalette |
The array of values that is your palette. |
|
|
Each item in the array can have one of the following values: |
|
|
Value |
Meaning |
|
Actual RGBQUAD value |
Use the specified color as a fixed color. |
|
RGB_RESERVED |
[0x01] Leave the item blank, for possible later use. |
|
RGB_EMPTY |
[0x02] Let the L_ColorResBitmap function fill in the color. The function supplies optimized colors to fill the RGB_EMPTY items. |
uColors |
The number of colors in your palette. |
Returns
The pointer to the table, or NULL if the function fails.
Comments
This function is used with other functions in the following sequence:
1. |
Call L_CreateUserMatchTable to create the table. |
2. |
Call L_SetUserMatchTable to make this the current table. (Having this as a separate function allows you to save tables in files and get the one you need, without creating it again.) |
3. |
Call L_ColorResBitmap with the CRF_USERPALETTE and CRF_FASTMATCHPALETTE options. |
4. |
Call L_FreeUserMatchTable when the table is no longer needed. |
The completed table is a 32K array of integers. On a 32-bit system, it occupies 128K bytes of memory. Creation of the table is a slow, memory-intensive process that is useful only if you are using your own palette more than once. For example, you may want to create the table once, save it to a file, and ship that file with your application.
Required DLLs and Libraries
LTKRN For a listing of the exact DLLs and Libraries needed, based on the toolkit version, refer to Files To Be Included With Your Application. |
Platforms
Windows 95 / 98 / Me, Windows 2000 / XP, Windows CE.
