LBitmapList::SetHandle

#include "ltwrappr.h"

L_VOID LBitmapList::SetHandle(hList, pBListInfo=NULL, bFree=TRUE)

HBITMAPLIST hList;	/* the handle to the bitmap list to be set */
LPBLISTINFO pBListInfo;	/* pointer to a structure */
L_BOOL bFree;	/* flag that indicates whether to destroy the old bitmap list */

Sets a new bitmap list handle for the bitmap list object.

Parameter	Description
hList	The handle to the bitmap list to be set.
pBListInfo	Optional pointer to a structure of type BLISTINFO that holds additional information about the passed bitmap list handle.
bFree	Flag that indicates whether to destroy the old bitmap list. Possible values are:
	Value	Meaning
	TRUE	Destroy the old bitmap list.
	FALSE	Do not destroy the old bitmap list.

Returns

None

Comments

Pass FALSE for bFree if the class object is referencing another object's bitmap list.

In this case, the owner of the bitmap list should free it when it is no longer needed.

If an LBitmapList object is referencing another object's bitmap list, you can use this function to set the object's internal handle to NULL so it will not attempt to free the bitmap list when its destructor is called.
