Re: MFC CBitmap LoadBitmap()

Hi all,
Bit of a problem with CBitmap's LoadBitmap() function. If I make a bitmap a resource and do

BitmapObj.LoadBitmap(IDB_MYBITMAP);

The image is loaded fine, but if I do

BitmapObj.LoadBitmap("MyBitmap.bmp");

it returns 0 (failed). I've tried moving the location of the file around the local directory (debug, res, etc.) but no luck.

What do I need to do?

Obseve everything, remember more...

You can't load a bitmap file like that. To load a bitmap image from a file, use LoadImage():

HBITMAP hbm = (HBITMAP)LoadImage(NULL, "MyBitmap.bmp", IMAGE_BITMAP, 0, 0, LR_LOADFROMFILE);

Hope this helps,

Ryan

Okay, but there is a function LoadBitmap() that takes an LPCTSTR string of the name of the bitmap. How does one use it?

How to read and write CD-ROM

It loads a bitmap from a resource. If you look at the MFC source code, you'll find that the one that takes a UINT actually calls the one that takes a LPCTSTR to do the work.

All resources are loaded via strings. The UINTs have to be coerced into looking like strings so that Windows can load them.

You know if it is posible to know where are stored in memory the pixels of a
web page ? and if yes how ?
thx in advance

yes sorry Frown | :(

In fact i'm working with CHtmlView, and i want to know if it is possible to get all pixels state of web page from memory (RAM), i don't want to use GetPixel or....
I hope you understand

PS : excuse for bad english Cry | :((

I assume you are trying to dynamically change the HTMLView window (the Internet Explorer activeX object you drop onto a dialog in Visual Studio's editor), am I right?

Look at how you set the pixels (width and height) and maybe attach a global variable to it, and getting the address of the variable and use it that way...

I don't really know, usually I stick to variables and don't bother getting it from RAM in the way I think you want.

You probably can't. I assume the HTML view simply stores the HTML data which it renders as it needs to. It wouldn't store the individual pixel states.

If you want to get an "image" in a device context, you can try getting the HTML view to print itself. Send it a WM_PRINTCLIENT message with the wParam holding the handle of the device context to print into. Using MFC:

CWnd *pWndHTML; // A pointer to the HTML view window
CDC dc; // A device context to draw into
// Get the correct window handle and setup the device context here
pwndHTML->SendMessage(WM_PRINTCLIENT, (WPARAM)dc.GetSafeHdc(), PRF_ERASEBKGND | PRF_CLIENT);
// The device context should hold a copy of the contents of the view

Keep in mind that this will only get the visible part of the view, not the whole document (unless it fits completely in the window).

Hope this helps,

Ryan

Thx for you answer !
I thought to this solution but i can't get all pixel state od the page only those there are display. So for me it is a problem

Ryan Binns23-Jun-03 2:16

What do you need to get the pixel state for? There may be another way to solve your problem (without getting the pixel state).

Resource DLL

Hi,

I am trying to make a dll for the images in my project. In the dll's project I add the resources (bitmaps) and I have functions to return HICONs, HBITMAPs, etc.
But I can't create any image resources in my dll.

In my resource.h I have

#define IDB_02 5001

but when I do

CBitmap dd;
BOOL ret = dd.LoadBitmap(IDB_02));

"ret" is false. Do I have to include something else in a dll to make it work with images?

Thanks

Before you call this, call AfxSetResourceHandle() to set the location of the resource, remembering to save the old one using AfxGetResourceHandle()

HINSTANCE hOldRes = AfxGetResourceHandle();
AfxSetResourceHandle(hinstDLL); // hinstDLL is the instance handle of your DLL
CBitmap dd;
BOOL ret = dd.LoadBitmap(IDB_02);
AfxSetResourceHandle(hOldRes);

I performed format function by calling the following function in shell32.dll:
(* dl_SHFormatDrive)(hWnd,cDrive-'A',SHFMT_ID_DEFAULT, bQuickFormat?:SHFMT_OPT_FULL);

My project can pop up a format dialog to format the floppy disk.
Now I want to hide the format dialog and let my floppy disk be formated automatically, in addition, I want to know the real-time value of ProgressBar's position. How can I handle this problem?

Please help me!
Thank you!

Have a look at the book "Visual C++ Windows Shell Programming" by Dino Esposito (Wrox Press). It's probably out of print but you should be able to get it still. Chapter 10 covers exactly this.
