// example of implementation of above class


//imageReader  imageobj;
// FILE* f = fopen( "C:\\test.bmp", "rb" ); if( f==0 ) return 1;
//  fread( buf, 1,sizeof(buf), f );
//  fclose(f);
//}

//  WINDOWPLACEMENT lpwndpl2;
//  GetWindowPlacement(hw,&lpwndpl2); //hw is handle to picture control where u want to render image
//  RECT rectImage;
//  rectImage.left=lpwndpl2.rcNormalPosition.left;
//  rectImage.right=lpwndpl2.rcNormalPosition.right;
//  rectImage.top=lpwndpl2.rcNormalPosition.top;
//  rectImage.bottom=lpwndpl2.rcNormalPosition.bottom;

//  HBITMAP hBitmap=imageobj.readBuffer(buf,hwparent,rectImage);//hwparent is handle to main dialog(parent)
/
//imageobj.renderImage(hBitmap);
//InvalidateRect(hwparent , &rectImage, TRUE);



// add imageobj.renderImage(hBitmap); in wm_paint
