ResetDC
The ResetDC function updates the given printer or plotter device context, based on the
information in the specified structure.
HDC ResetDC(
HDC hdc,
| // handle of device context
| CONST DEVMODE *lpInitData
| // address of structure with device context information
| );
|
|
Parameters
hdc
Identifies the device context to update.
lpInitData
Points to a DEVMODE structure containing information about the new device context.
Return Values
If the function succeeds, the return value is the handle of the original
device context.
If the function fails, the return value is NULL.
Remarks
An application will typically use the ResetDC function when a window receives a WM_DEVMODECHANGE message. ResetDC can also be used to change the paper orientation or paper bins while printing
a document.
The ResetDC function cannot be used to change the driver name, device name, or the output
port. When the user changes the port connection or device name, the
application must delete the original device context and create a new device context with
the new information.
An application can pass an information device context to the ResetDC function. In that situation, ResetDC will always return a printer device context.

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 » |
