L_CreateMaskFromBitmapRgn

#include "l_bitmap.h"

L_LTDIS_API L_INT L_CreateMaskFromBitmapRgn(pBitmap, pMask, uStructSize)

pBITMAPHANDLE pBitmap;	pointer to the source bitmap handle
pBITMAPHANDLE pMask;	pointer to the destination bitmap handle
L_UINT uStructSize;	size in bytes, of the structure pointed to by pBitmap

Creates a 1-bit mask image from the region that is defined in the source bitmap.

Parameter	Description
pBitmap	Pointer to the bitmap handle referencing the source bitmap, where the region is defined.
pMask	Pointer to the bitmap handle referencing the destination bitmap, which will be updated with a 1-bit, black-and-white image, where pixels from the region are white, and all others are black.
uStructSize	Size in bytes, of the structure pointed to by pBitmap, for versioning. Use sizeof(BITMAPHANDLE).

Returns

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

Comments

A bitmap region is an area of interest within a bitmap. A bitmap can have only one region at a time, but the region can be complex, including, for example, multiple noncontiguous shapes. For more information, refer to Creating a Bitmap Region.

Example

This example loads an image, sets a color region using black, and then creates a 1-bit mask image from that bitmap.

#define MAKE_IMAGE_PATH(pFileName) TEXT("C:\\Users\\Public\\Documents\\LEADTOOLS Images\\")pFileName 
L_INT CreateMaskFromBitmapRgnExample(L_VOID) 
{ 
   L_INT nRet; 
   BITMAPHANDLE LeadBitmap; /* Bitmap handle that holds the loaded bitmap */ 
   BITMAPHANDLE MaskBitmap; /* Bitmap handle that holds the mask bitmap */ 
   nRet = L_LoadBitmap (MAKE_IMAGE_PATH(TEXT("IMAGE1.CMP")), &LeadBitmap, sizeof(BITMAPHANDLE), 0, ORDER_BGR, NULL, NULL ); 
   if(nRet != SUCCESS) 
      return nRet; 
   nRet = L_SetBitmapRgnColor (&LeadBitmap, RGB( 0,0,0 ), L_RGN_SET ); 
   if(nRet != SUCCESS) 
      return nRet; 
   nRet = L_CreateMaskFromBitmapRgn(&LeadBitmap, &MaskBitmap, sizeof(BITMAPHANDLE)); 
   if(nRet != SUCCESS) 
      return nRet; 
   nRet = L_SaveBitmap(MAKE_IMAGE_PATH(TEXT("Result.BMP")), &MaskBitmap, FILE_BMP, 24, 0, NULL); 
   if(nRet != SUCCESS) 
      return nRet; 
   L_FreeBitmap(&LeadBitmap); 
   L_FreeBitmap(&MaskBitmap); 
   return SUCCESS; 
}
