LImageListControl::ImportBitmapList

#include "ltwrappr.h"

L_INT LImageListControl::ImportBitmapList(pImportList)

/* pointer to structure */

Inserts a list of bitmaps into the ImageList Control.

Parameter	Description
pImportList	Pointer to the LILIMPORTBITMAPLIST structure that contains the list of bitmaps to be inserted.

Returns

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

Comments

You must set the uStructSize member of the LILIMPORTBITMAPLIST structure before using this function.

The list of bitmaps found in the passed LILIMPORTBITMAPLIST structure will be inserted into the Image List control starting from nStartIndex to (nStartIndex + nItemsToInsert 1).

After inserting the list of bitmaps successfully into the ImageList control, dont try to free the bitmaps of the passed list (hLists bitmaps). The ImageList control will have a reference to hList bitmaps-- not a copy of them.
