GetPointsFromPenData
- 0 2.0
Retrieves a specified range of points.
BOOL GetPointsFromPenData( HPENDATA hpndt, UINT iStrk, UINT iPnt, UINT cPnts, LPPOINT lppt )
Parameters
hpndt
Handle to a pen data object.
iStrk
The zero-based stroke index from which points are retrieved.
iPnt
First point to retrieve from the specified stroke.
cPnts
Number of points to retrieve. If this value is 0, the function returns TRUE.
lppt
Address of buffer to fill with points.
Return Value
Returns TRUE if successful, or FALSE if the requested points are out of range.
Comments
GetPointsFromPenData performs a function similar to GetPenDataStroke in that it retrieves information from an HPENDATA memory block. But GetPointsFromPenData copies the required data to buffers supplied by the application, rather than
simply returning pointers to the original data in the global heap.
An application can also request a copy of a particular subset of points within
a stroke. In this case, iPnt identifies the first point and cPnts is the number of points to retrieve. This allows an application to digest the
points in an HPENDATA block a few at a time to avoid having to allocate a large block of memory for
the entire set of points.
GetPointsFromPenData returns the last point in a stroke if the iPnt argument is set to a value larger than the total number of points in the
stroke. In the same manner, the function returns the points of the last stroke if iStrk exceeds the total number of strokes in the HPENDATA block. If the count of points to return is 1 and iPnt is beyond the last point in the stroke, the function returns the last point
in the stroke.

Nostalgia .Net |

.Net is powerful, but not all-powerful, so sometimes we need to use Win32 API for our .Net applications. It's simple enough with Platform Invoke if you have Win32 skill, but we do not always have time to dig the ancient documentation, declare the special types that are compatible with Win32, find the values of the Win32's constants and so on. Nostalgia .Net offers several simple-to-use classes, and components that will allow you to forget about the headache of Win32 and just use the power of Win32 in your application the same way as you use the native. Net classes. More » |
