Another Bitmap Question...yes Windows GDI

[OceanJeff32]

Once again from the confusing world of Windows GDI, comes a question from MASM programmers about BITMAPS!!   :boohoo:

:lol

Please check out this attachment if you are interested in helping, I'm trying to BitBlt the HAPPY.BMP to the screen.

Later, and thanks,

Here's one I made earlier.. :wink

(It uses LoadBitmap, instead of LoadImage, but they both obtain the bitmap from the resources, so there's little difference.)

Hi Jeff,

Nice example. Why do you need to declare the API functions with the EXTERN statement when include files from the masm32 package are available?

Checking the win32.hlp , I found this definition :

HANDLE LoadImage(

    HINSTANCE hinst,    // handle of the instance that contains the image
    .
    .

Maybe, your code should contain something like PUSH HINST instead of PUSH MEMDC2

Code Select Expand

invoke LoadImage,hInstance,ADDR filename,IMAGE_BITMAP,0,0,LR_LOADFROMFILE

You can check the attachment for a simple example.
