Example

This example creates an array of selected items and rotates each one. Note that this can also be done simply by setting a flag in L_AnnRotate.

 L_INT AnnGetSelectItemsExample(HANNOBJECT   hContainer)/* Container annotation object */
{
   L_INT nRet;
  L_UINT       uSelectCount;  /* Number of objects selected */     
  pHANNOBJECT  pAnnArray;     /* Pointer to an array of annotation objects */   
  HGLOBAL      hAnnArray;     /* Handle for memory management */ 
  L_UINT       i;             /* Loop counter */

  /* Get the number of objects selected */
  nRet = L_AnnGetSelectCount(hContainer, &uSelectCount);   
  if(nRet != SUCCESS)
     return nRet;
  /* Allocate and lock a storage for the object handles */
  hAnnArray = GlobalAlloc(GPTR, sizeof(HANNOBJECT) * uSelectCount);
  pAnnArray = (pHANNOBJECT)GlobalLock( hAnnArray );
  /* Fill the array of selected objects */
  nRet = L_AnnGetSelectItems(hContainer, pAnnArray);
  if(nRet != SUCCESS)
     return nRet;
  /* Rotate each selected object */
  for (i = 0; i < uSelectCount; i++)
  {
    nRet = L_AnnRotate(pAnnArray[i], 90, 0, 0);
    if(nRet != SUCCESS)
       return nRet;
  }
  /* Free the memory */
  GlobalUnlock (hAnnArray);
  GlobalFree (hAnnArray);
   return SUCCESS;
}
