SetMetaFileBitsEx
The SetMetaFileBitsEx function creates a memory-based Windows-format metafile from the supplied
data.
This function is provided for compatibility with earlier versions of Microsoft
Windows. Win32-based applications should use the SetEnhMetaFileBits function.
HMETAFILE SetMetaFileBitsEx(
UINT nSize,
| // size of Windows-format metafile
| CONST BYTE *lpData
| // address of buffer containing metafile data
| );
|
|
Parameters
nSize
Specifies the size, in bytes, of the Windows-format metafile.
lpData
Points to a buffer that contains the Windows-format metafile. (It is assumed
that the data was obtained by using the GetMetaFileBitsEx function.)
Return Values
If the function succeeds, the return value is a handle of a memory-based
Windows-format metafile.
If the function fails, the return value is NULL.
Remarks
A Windows-format metafile does not support the new curve, path, and
transformation functions such as PolyBezier, BeginPath, and SetWorldTransform. Applications that use these new functions and use metafiles to store pictures created by these functions should use the
enhanced-format metafile functions.
To convert a Windows-format metafile into an enhanced-format metafile, use the SetWinMetaFileBits function.
When the application no longer needs the metafile handle returned by SetMetaFileBitsEx, it should delete it by calling the DeleteMetaFile function.

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 » |
