L_PaintDCCallback

#include "l_bitmap.h"

L_LTDIS_API L_INT L_PaintDCCallback(pCallbackData, pBitmap, pSrc, pSrcClip, pDest, pDestClip, uROP3)

Displays any image, at any size, to any device context (screen, printer, or memory dc) using custom callbacks.

If the display surface has fewer colors than the image, this function dithers the output to that display surface without affecting the actual image data.

Parameters

pPAINTCALLBACKDATA pCallbackData

Pointer to a structure containing the device context (DC) and the paint callbacks.

pBITMAPHANDLE pBitmap

Pointer to the bitmap handle referencing the bitmap to paint.

L_RECT* pSrc

Pointer to the Windows RECT structure that specifies the part of the bitmap to use as the display source.

The coordinates in the RECT structure are relative to the bitmap. You can pass NULL to use the default, which matches the bitmap.

L_RECT* pSrcClip

Pointer to the Windows RECT structure that specifies the portion of the display source to paint. Generally, this is used for updating the display when part of the source bitmap has changed.

The coordinates in the RECT structure are relative to the bitmap. You can pass NULL to use the default, which matches the bitmap.

L_RECT* pDest

Pointer to the Windows RECT structure that determines how the source rectangle is scaled and how the image is positioned in the device context.

The coordinates in the RECT structure are relative to the device context. There is no default for this parameter. You must specify the RECT structure.

L_RECT* pDestClip

Pointer to the Windows RECT structure that specifies the portion of the display rectangle to paint. Generally, this is used for updating changes in the display surface, such as when a user moves another window, uncovering a part of the image that had been covered up.

The coordinates in the RECT structure are relative to the device context. You can pass NULL to use the default, which matches the device context. In most cases, however, you should use the rectangle returned by the Windows WM_PAINT message.

L_UINT32 uROP3

The Windows ROP code that determines how the destination rectangle is updated. This parameter takes the same codes as the Windows BitBlt function. For ordinary painting, use SRCCOPY.

Returns

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

Comments

Please see the documentation for L_PaintDC for more details on how you use theses rectangle.

If you are using specialized functions painting, refer to those functions' documentation to verify which device contexts are compatible with those functions. For example, some graphics cards with more than 8bits/component display might work only with screen DCs (not memory DCs).

The HDC you are painting to should stored in the PAINTCALLBACKDATA structure. Please refer to its documentation for details on which GDI functions you can override.
