LAnnContainer::LoadOffset

#include "ltwrappr.h"

virtual L_INT LAnnContainer::LoadOffset(fd, nOffset, nLength, pLoadFileOption)

L_HFILE fd;	/* the Windows file handle */
L_SSIZE_T nOffset;	/* position of the first byte to load */
L_SIZE_T nLength;	/* number of bytes of annotation data to read */
pLOADFILEOPTION pLoadFileOption;	/* pointer to a LOADFILEOPTION structure */

Loads annotations from a position within a file. This enables you to load an annotation file that is embedded in another file. This function is available in the Document/Medical Toolkits.

Parameter	Description
fd	The Windows file handle of the file to load.
nOffset	The position, from the beginning of the file, of the first byte to load. (The byte count starts at zero.)
nLength	The number of bytes of annotation data to read from the file. If you saved the offset using LAnnContainer::SaveOffset, the variable pointed to by puSizeWritten in that function contains the length of data saved. If you do not know the length of the data, pass 0xFFFFFFFF for this parameter.
pLoadFileOption	Pointer to the LOADFILEOPTION structure to be updated with the current extended values.

Returns

SUCCESS	The function was successful.
< 1	An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.
