L_LTANN_API L_INT L_AnnClipboardReady(pfReady)

L_BOOL * pfReady;

address of the variable to be updated

Determines whether the Windows clipboard contains an annotation object that can be pasted using the L_AnnCopyFromClipboard function.

Parameter	Description
pfReady	Address of the variable to be updated with a value indicating whether the clipboard contains an annotation object. Possible values are:
	Value	Meaning
	TRUE	The clipboard contains an annotation that can be copied.
	FALSE	The clipboard does not contain an annotation that can be copied.

Returns

SUCCESS	The function was successful.
< 1	An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.

Comments

(Document and Medical) Before calling this function, you must declare a variable of data type L_BOOL. Then, pass the address of the variable in the pfReady parameter. This function will update the variable with the result of the test.

You can use L_AnnCopyToClipboard or L_AnnCutToClipboard to put valid annotation data on the clipboard. L_AnnCopyFromClipboard can be used to copy valid annotation data from the clipboard to a container.

For more information about loading and pasting automated annotations, refer to Loading and Pasting Automated Annotations.

Example

For complete sample code, refer to the ANNOTATE example. This example checks the clipboard for valid annotation data, and if valid data is present, copies and inserts the annotations, and displays the results.

L_INT AnnClipboardReadyExample(HWND         hWnd, 
HANNOBJECT   hContainer)/* Container annotation object */ 
{ 
   L_INT nRet; 
   L_BOOL      GoodData; /* TRUE if there is annotation data on the clipboard */ 
   HDC         hdc; 
   RECT        rAnnBounds; 
   RECT        rcAnnNameBounds; 
   HANNOBJECT  TmpContainer; 
   /* See if we have annotations on the clipboard */ 
   nRet = L_AnnClipboardReady(&GoodData); 
   if(nRet != SUCCESS) 
      return nRet; 
   /* Copy the annotations, if they exist */ 
   if (GoodData) 
   { 
      nRet = L_AnnCopyFromClipboard(hWnd, &TmpContainer); 
      if(nRet != SUCCESS) 
         return nRet; 
      /* The following code inserts the copied annotations and allows you to see the results.  */ 
      nRet = L_AnnInsert(hContainer, TmpContainer, TRUE); 
      if(nRet != SUCCESS) 
         return nRet; 
      hdc = GetDC(hWnd); 
      nRet = L_AnnGetBoundingRect(hContainer, &rAnnBounds, &rcAnnNameBounds); 
      if(nRet != SUCCESS) 
         return nRet; 
      nRet = L_AnnDraw(hdc, &rAnnBounds, hContainer); 
      if(nRet != SUCCESS) 
         return nRet; 
   } 
   return SUCCESS; 
}
