Drawimage

[Anu_Bala]

I coded like this for my application.

CString bmpFilePath;
HBITMAP hBmp;
hBmp = (HBITMAP)::LoadImage(NULL,bmpFilePath,IMAGE_BITMAP,0,0,LR_LOADFROMFILE|LR_CREATEDIBSECTION);
CBitmap bmp;
bmp.Attach(hBmp);
CDC dcImage;
if(!dcImage.CreateCompatibleDC(pDC))
return;
BITMAP bm;
CBitmap* pOldBitmap;
bmp.GetBitmap(&bm);
pOldBitmap = dcImage.SelectObject(&bmp);
pDC->BitBlt(350,100, bm.bmWidth, bm.bmHeight, &dcImage, 0, 0, SRCCOPY);
dcImage.SelectObject(pOldBitmap);

LoadImage is returning NULL? and nothing is getting drawn.

Thanks its working...but what I need to change in code If I load a png/jpg image...

Check bmp file is avaialble in folder.Otherwise it returns NULL.

You've not shown the code that actually draws the image, but I'll take a guess at the problem. In your first code snippet, it is a CBitmap instance that will be used for drawing. In your second snippet, it is a pointer to a Bitmap instance that is used. Your drawing code will need to be adjusted accordingly. :)

I use this code

// BMP, GIF, JPEG, PNG, TIFF, Exif, WMF, and EMF
HBITMAP mLoadImg(WCHAR *szFilename)
{
HBITMAP result=NULL;

Gdiplus::Bitmap\* bitmap = new Gdiplus::Bitmap(szFilename,false);
bitmap->GetHBITMAP(NULL, &result);
delete bitmap;
return result;

}

Note: You have to startup and shutdown the GDI+ system. I usually do this in apps initialization and destruction (winmain or main if not mfc apps)

int APIENTRY WinMain(HINSTANCE hInstance, HINSTANCE hPrevInstance, LPSTR lpCmdLine, int nShowCmd)
{
Gdiplus::GdiplusStartupInput gdiplusStartupInput;
ULONG_PTR gdiplusToken;
Gdiplus::GdiplusStartup(&gdiplusToken, &gdiplusStartupInput, NULL);

hInst = hInstance;
InitCommonControls();
// The user interface is a modal dialog box
DialogBox(hInstance, MAKEINTRESOURCE(DLG\_MAIN), NULL, (DLGPROC)DialogProc);
Gdiplus::GdiplusShutdown(gdiplusToken);

}

:), basically my motive is to draw image (png/jpg) using bitblt...I will adjust code accordingly.

Thank you for help...I am able to draw image. I need your help in one more problem as described below: I need to draw image on the screen using XOR so that diff of 2 images can be draw as a complete image. How to solve this?

first you can get the path,then set ID and path link！ so，your first method can do it

MFC by default support only BMP file, however you can take services of different library that suits your need, one of them is gdiplus, search Google for more information
