Re: Displaying bmp on form

[Anoop]

After that we tried displaying image using the following code. The image displayed in device is distorted and not clear .Please go through this code segment and guide us. void createbitmap() {       Err error;    char *pData; //    UInt8 *pBitmapBits;    BitmapType *bmpP;       BitmapTypeV3 *bmpV3P;    ColorTableType *_ctbl; //    //MemHandle  hBitmap; _ctbl = (ColorTableType *)MemPtrNew(sizeof (ColorTableType) + (256 * sizeof(RGBColorType))); _ctbl->numEntries = 256;    bmpP = BmpCreate(95, 90, 8, NULL, &error);     pData = bmpRead();   //  reads bitmap data    bmpV3P = BmpCreateBitmapV3(bmpP,kDensityDouble,pData,NULL);    WinDrawBitmap((BitmapType*)bmpV3P,50,50);       } char* bmpRead() {      FileRef fref , nfref;        Err err,err1;        MemHandle bufH;        char *bufBaseP;        UInt32 rb;        //FileRef fileRef = 0;        char path[] = "/Palm/programs/test.bmp" ;        UInt16 volRefNum; UInt32 volIterator = vfsIteratorStart;            while (volIterator != vfsIteratorStop) {               err1 = VFSVolumeEnumerate(&volRefNum, &volIterator);                     }            err = VFSFileOpen (volRefNum, path, vfsModeRead,  &fref);            bufH = MemHandleNew (9716);            bufBaseP = MemHandleLock (bufH);            err = VFSFileRead (fref, 9716, bufBaseP, &rb);            VFSFileClose (fref);            MemHandleUnlock (bufH);            MemHandleFree   (bufH);                     return(bufBaseP); } Michal Seliga wrote: i don't know anything about protein sdk so i can't help here, sorry Anoop wrote: Am attaching the code . Please go through it. GcBitmapHandle gcBitmap; GcHandle gc; gcBitmap = FrmGetBitmapHandle(formP, myAppDB, bitmapRsc, rscID, 0); if (!gcBitmap) return memErrNotEnoughSpace; GcGetCurrentContext(gc); if (gc) { GcDrawBitmapAt(gc, gcBitmap, NULL, x, y); GcReleaseContext(gc); Here we need to know how we could give the FrmGetBitmapHandle parameter "myAppDB", which is the database name. Am developing my application in Protein sdk. Here i cant find a .pdb file. Please help..

Anoop wrote: Hi all, We read a bmp image from a file at a specified location and tried displaying on screen. While trying it in device the image was correctly loaded but was distorted. We specified the correct height, width , depth and file size for reading from file. Also we noticed that the image is inverted. The color combination is also not correct. if anyone gone through this issue, please guide us.
