I am using some scanning software that can provide me with a handle to a DIB (Device Indep. Bitmap according to the documentation). What I'd like to do is display this directly on the screen in a label, or another suitable element. I'm not very clear on exactly what a handle is (except that it's different from a pointer, again according to their documentation) and how to interface this with Win32::GUI.
What I'm doing right now is writing the page out to a BMP file on disk, then opening it in a Win32::GUI::Bitmap, which is then assigned to a label, but it seems to me there should be an easier way to do this. Does anyone have any suggestions?
