Way to Store and Retrive Metafile Info

[anilksingh]

TMetafile *pMetafile = new TMetafile; TMetafileCanvas *pCanvas = new TMetafileCanvas(pMetafile, 0); pCanvas->Brush->Color = clRed; pCanvas->Ellipse(0,0,100,100); FILE *fpW; fpW=fopen("h","wb") ; fwrite(pMetafile,sizeof(*pMetafile),1,fpW); fclose(fpW); delete pCanvas; delete pMetafile;//If we comment this statement Ellipse is not drawn TMetafile *pMetafile1 = new TMetafile; fpW=fopen("h","rb"); fread(pMetafile1,sizeof(*pMetafile1),1,fpW); fclose(fpW) ; Form1->Canvas->Draw(0,0,pMetafile1); If the pMetafile is deleted after saving the data into file then the code will not draw Ellipse. Is it there any way to store and retrive the Metafile Info.

Try sizeof(TMetafile),looks like you did not save the metafile. Best Regards, Deepu
