L_LTFIL_API L_INT L_ReadFileStamp(pszFile, pBitmap, uStructSize, pLoadOptions)

L_TCHAR* pszFile;

/* file name*/

pBITMAPHANDLE pBitmap;

/* pointer to the target bitmap handle */

L_UINT uStructSize;

/* size in bytes, of the structure pointed to by pBitmap */

pLOADFILEOPTION pLoadOptions;

/* pointer to optional extended load options */

Reads a thumbnail image stored in a file and loads it into a specified bitmap.

Parameter

Description

pszFile

Character string containing the file name.

pBitmap

Pointer to the bitmap handle referencing the bitmap that will contain the thumbnail image.

uStructSize

Size in bytes, of the structure pointed to by pBitmap, for versioning. Use sizeof(BITMAPHANDLE).

pLoadOptions
