Frees all resources owned by the object.

This function should not be used by externals but must retain the same ordinal number to maintain BC, thus is exported.

APIExtension can contain as many additional methods as is required by CGraphicsContext after its original conception. It takes 3 parameters. Function is exported due to constrains of retaining BC with earlier versions. This is not used directly by external methods, instead it is called by a named method in CGraphicsContext which passes the relivant arguements including an unique identifier for the required action. Valid Uid identifiers are listed in header gdi.h CGraphicsContext

Sets the object to draw to a particular device

Performs a masked bitmap block transfer.

The function provides a concrete implementation of the pure virtual function CBitmapContext::BitBltMasked() . The function behaviour is the same as documented in that class.

There are several points to note about this implementation of BitBltMasked() :

1.For best performance the aMaskBitmap and source aBitmap should have the same display mode as the destination device/bitmap.

2.For performance reasons this implementation does not validate the contents of the aMaskBitmap. The caller must ensure the mask pixels are either black or white otherwise undefined blitting causing unpredictable discoloration will result. This is especially true for index (where pixel is palette entry) display modes (e.g. EColor16). It is up to the caller to decide if they wish to utilise CFbsBitmap::IsMonochrome() .

3.Alpha blending is used when the display mode of the mask bitmap aMaskBitmap is EGray256.

Draws a bitmap.

The function has 3 overloads. The first draws the bitmap given the top left hand corner, doing a compress/stretch based on its internally stored size in twips. The second does a compress/stretch to fit a given rectangle. The third takes a rectangular section of the source bitmap and does a compress/stretch to fit a given destination rectangle.The functions provide a concrete implementation of the pure virtual function CGraphicsContext::DrawBitmap() . The function behaviour is the same as documented in that class.

Draws a bitmap to fit a given rectangle.

The bitmap is compressed or stretched based on its internally stored size in pixels.

Notes:

This member function uses the bitmap's size in pixels and does a stretch/compress blit using a linear DDA.

As this function scales the bitmap, it is unavoidably slow. Therefore, where possible, use CBitmapContext::BitBlt() instead. If the bitmap has to be scaled, consider creating another bitmap along with an CFbsBitmapDevice etc., doing DrawBitmap() once and using BitBlt() subsequently.

Note that all bitmaps are clipped to the device boundaries.

TLinearDDA

Draws a specified rectangle of a source bitmap to fit into a given destination rectangle.

Notes:

This member function uses rectangle sizes in pixels and does a stretch/compress blit using a linear DDA.

As this function scales the bitmap, it is unavoidably slow. Therefore, where possible, use CBitmapContext::BitBlt() instead. If the bitmap has to be scaled, consider creating another bitmap along with an CFbsBitmapDevice etc., doing DrawBitmap() once and using BitBlt() subsequently.

Note that all bitmaps are clipped to the device boundaries.

TLinearDDA

The method draws a specified rectangle from a bitmap and its mask into another rectangle and does a compress/stretch to fit a given destination rectangle.

The method draws a specified rectangle from a bitmap and its mask into another rectangle and does a compress/stretch to fit a given destination rectangle.

This is an overload, which takes CWsBitmap* as argument, which in turn calls the other overload.

Note: A pointer to CWsBitmap must have the same pointer value as a pointer to the associated CFbsBitmap , otherwise code in BitGdi component will be Broken.
