LRasterPaint::DrawShapeLine

Summary

Draws a line between the specified points.

Syntax

#include "Ltwrappr.h"

L_INT LRasterPaint::DrawShapeLine(UserDC, nStartX, nStartY, nEndX, nEndY)

Parameters

HDC UserDC

Handle to a device context, such as a screen, to use as a display surface. This parameter can also be NULL. The mapping mode of the device context must be MM_TEXT.

L_INT nStartX

Specifies the x-coordinate of the start position, in logical units.

L_INT nStartY

Specifies the y-coordinate of the start position, in logical units.

L_INT nEndX

Specifies the x-coordinate of the end position, in logical units.

L_INT nEndY

Specifies the y-coordinate of the end position, in logical units.

Returns

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

Comments

The line will be drawn using the current shape properties. To determine the current shape properties, call LRasterPaint::GetProperty. To set or change the current shape properties, call LRasterPaint::SetProperty. For more information on the shape properties, refer to the PAINTSHAPE structure.

If UserDC is not NULL, the toolkit will paint the line on the specified device context. If UserDC is NULL, the line will not be painted on a device context.

If the UserDC is not NULL, the user should set the DC boundaries before calling this function, by calling LRasterPaint::SetDCExtents.

If a bitmap has been set using the LRasterPaint::SetMetrics function, the line will be drawn on the specified bitmap. If UserDC is not NULL and a bitmap has been set using the LRasterPaint::SetMetrics function, then the line will be drawn to both the device context and the bitmap.
