LBitmapList::GetFirstItem

Summary

Gets the first item of the bitmap list object.

Syntax

#include "ltwrappr.h"

L_INT LBitmapList::GetFirstItem(pLBitmap)

Parameters

LBitmapBase * pLBitmap

Pointer to an allocated bitmap object that will receive the first item of the bitmap list.

Returns

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

Comments

This function updates the current index to the first item in the list.

The bitmap handle that this function gets and attaches to the passed LBitmapBase object, is a copy of the bitmap handle stored internally in the list. If you modify the bitmap, you can update the class object's internal bitmap handle to reflect the changes by using the LBitmapList::SetItem function.

You should not free the bitmap. Instead, use LBitmapList::DeleteItems.

You cannot use this function to update a bitmap list while it is being used in an animation playback.

In order to use this function, you must first allocate an LBitmapBase object (or an object derived from LBitmapBase). Pass the address of the LBitmapBase object, and it will be filled with the item from the bitmap list.
