Implementing Automation - Implementing Vector Automation

Start with the project you created in Initializing and Loading a Vector Image

Take the following steps to create and initialize the automation objects:

1. Add the following include statements after #include "l_bitmap.h". Note that the path needs to match the path used when the toolkit was installed on your system.

    #include "C:/LEADTOOLS23/Include/ltpnt.h" 
    #include "C:/LEADTOOLS23/Include/lttlb.h" 
    #include "C:/LEADTOOLS23/Include/ltcon.h" 
    #include "C:/LEADTOOLS23/Include/ltaut.h" 

2. Replace the ResetView function with the following code:

   static L_VOID ResetView(HWND hWnd, pVECTORHANDLE pVector, pAUTOMATIONHANDLE pAutomation) 
   { 
      VECTORPOINT Scale; 
      VECTORPOINT Rotation; 
      VECTORPOINT Translation; 
      POINT       pt; 
      L_AutSetUndoEnabled(pAutomation, FALSE); 
      Scale.x = Scale.y = Scale.z = 1.0; 
      L_VecSetScale(pVector, &Scale, NULL, NULL, 0L); 
      Rotation.x = Rotation.y = Rotation.z = 0.0; 
      L_VecSetRotation(pVector, &Rotation, NULL, NULL, 0L); 
      Translation.x = Translation.y = Translation.z = 0.0; 
      L_VecSetTranslation(pVector, &Translation, NULL, 0L); 
      pt.x = 0; 
      pt.y = 0; 
      L_VecSetPan(pVector, &pt); 
      L_VecSetParallelogram(pVector, NULL, NULL); 
      L_VecSetOrigin(pVector, NULL); 
      L_VecSetCamera(pVector, NULL); 
      L_AutSetUndoEnabled(pAutomation, TRUE); 
      InvalidateRect(hWnd, NULL, FALSE); 
   } 

3. Add the following new local function before the WndProc function:

   static L_INT EXT_CALLBACK ContainerCallback(pCONTAINERHANDLE pContainer, CONTAINEREVENTTYPE nEventType, L_VOID *pEventData, L_VOID *pUserData) 
   { 
      HWND                 hWnd; 
      pCONTAINEROBJECTDATA pObjectData; 
      switch (nEventType) 
      { 
         case CONTAINER_EVENT_TYPE_DRAW: 
         pObjectData = (pCONTAINEROBJECTDATA)pEventData; 
         if (pObjectData->fState == CONTAINER_STATE_END || pObjectData->fState == CONTAINER_STATE_ABORT) 
         { 
            L_ContainerGetOwner(pContainer, &hWnd); 
            InvalidateRect(hWnd, NULL, FALSE); 
         } 
         break; 
      } 
      return SUCCESS; 
   } 

4. Add the following local variables to the WndProc function, right after the HDC hDC; statement:

   static pAUTOMATIONHANDLE pAutomation; 
   static pCONTAINERHANDLE pContainer; 
   static pTOOLBARHANDLE pToolbar; 
   CONTAINERMETRICS ContainerMetrics; 

5. Add the following lines right after the L_VecAttachToWindow function call in the WM_CREATE of WndProc:

   // create the automation handle 
   L_AutInit(&pAutomation); 
   L_AutCreate(pAutomation, AUTOMATION_MODE_VECTOR, 0L); 
   // create the toolbar 
   L_TBInit(&pToolbar); 
   L_TBCreate(pToolbar, hWnd, TEXT("Vector"), TOOLBAR_VECTOR); 
   L_TBSetVisible(pToolbar, TRUE); 
   // add it to the automation object 
   L_AutSetToolbar(pAutomation, pToolbar); 
   // create the container 
   L_ContainerInit(&pContainer); 
   L_ContainerCreate(pContainer, hWnd); 
   // set its callback 
   L_ContainerSetCallback(pContainer, ContainerCallback, NULL); 
   // add it to the automation object 
   L_AutAddContainer(pAutomation, pContainer, &Vector); 
   // set it as the active container 
   L_AutSetActiveContainer(pAutomation, pContainer); 

6. Change the ResetView function call just before the return 0; statement in WM_CREATE to:

   ResetView( hWnd, &Vector, pAutomation );  

7. Add the following lines right after the L_VecSetViewport function call in WM_SIZE:

   // set container limits to entire client area   
   ContainerMetrics.nSize = sizeof( CONTAINERMETRICS );   
   ContainerMetrics.dwMask = CMF_LIMITS;   
   CopyRect( &ContainerMetrics.rcLimits, &Rect );   
   L_ContainerSetMetrics ( pContainer, &ContainerMetrics ); 

8. Add the following lines to the WM_DESTROY message, just before the call to L_VecFree:

   // destroy container 
   L_AutRemoveContainer(pAutomation, pContainer); 
   L_ContainerFree(pContainer); 
   // destroy automation 
   L_AutFree(pAutomation); 
   // destroy toolbar 
   L_TBFree(pToolbar); 

9. In Imports.cpp add the following #pragma comment lines. Note that the path needs to match the one that is on your system.

   #if defined(FOR_WIN64)  
   #pragma comment(lib, "C:\\LEADTOOLS23\\Lib\\CDLL\\x64\\Lvaut_x.lib") 
   #pragma comment(lib, "C:\\LEADTOOLS23\\Lib\\CDLL\\x64\\Lvcon_x.lib") 
   #pragma comment(lib, "C:\\LEADTOOLS23\\Lib\\CDLL\\x64\\Lvtlb_x.lib") 
   #elif defined(FOR_WIN32)  
   #pragma comment(lib, "C:\\LEADTOOLS23\\Lib\\CDLL\\Win32\\Ltaut_u.lib") 
   #pragma comment(lib, "C:\\LEADTOOLS23\\Lib\\CDLL\\Win32\\Ltcon_u.lib") 
   #pragma comment(lib, "C:\\LEADTOOLS23\\Lib\\CDLL\\Win32\\Lttlb_u.lib") 
   #endif // #if defined(FOR_WIN64)  

10. Compile and run the demo. You should be able to draw new vector objects and rotate them in 3D, using your mouse and the pan feature.
