The SetBitmapBits function sets the bits of color data for a bitmap to the specified values.

The SetBitmapBits function is included only for compatibility with earlier versions of Windows. For Win32-based applications, use the SetDIBits function.

LONG SetBitmapBits(

HBITMAP hbmp,	// handle of bitmap
DWORD cBytes,	// number of bytes in bitmap array
CONST VOID * lpBits	// address of array with bitmap bits
);

Parameters
hbmp

Identifies the bitmap to be set.

cBytes

Specifies the number of bytes pointed to by the lpBits parameter.

lpBits

Points to an array of bytes that contain color data for the specified bitmap.

Return Values
If the function succeeds, the return value is the number of bytes used in setting the bitmap bits.

If the function fails, the return value is zero.

Remarks
The array identified by lpBits must be WORD aligned.
