The GetBitmapDimensionEx function retrieves the dimensions of a bitmap. The retrieved dimensions must have been set by the SetBitmapDimensionEx function. The GetMapDimensionEx function replaces the GetMapDimension function.

BOOL GetBitmapDimensionEx(

HBITMAP hBitmap,	// handle of bitmap
LPSIZE lpDimension	// address of structure receiving dimensions
);

Parameters
hBitmap

Identifies the bitmap.

lpDimension

Points to a SIZE structure to receive the bitmap dimensions.

Return Values
If the function succeeds, the return value is nonzero.

If the function fails, the return value is zero. To get extended error information, call GetLastError.

Remarks
The function returns a data structure that contains fields for the height and width of the bitmap. If those dimensions have not yet been set, the structure that is returned will have zeroes in those fields.
