LBitmapList::GetCurrentIndex

#include "ltwrappr.h"

L_UINT LBitmapList::GetCurrentIndex(L_VOID)

Gets the current index for the bitmap list object.

Returns

The current index for the bitmap list object.

Comments

The current index controls which item is returned when calling LBitmapList::GetNextItem and LBitmapList::GetPreviousItem.

Use zero-based indexing. For example, if there are 10 bitmaps in a list, the index of the last one is 9.

Note: If the list is empty, this function will return 0.
