VB	pGDIPlusImage = object.LoadGDIPlusImageFromResource(ByVal ResourceHandle As LONG_PTR, ByVal ResourceType As String, ByVal ResourceName As String) As LONG_PTR
C#.NET	int pGDIPlusImage = object.LoadGDIPlusImageFromResource(int ResourceHandle, string ResourceType, string ResourceName);
VC++	LONG_PTR pGDIPlusImage = object->LoadGDIPlusImageFromResource(LONG_PTR ResourceHandle, _bstr_t ResourceType, _bstr_t ResourceName);
C	HRESULT object->raw_LoadGDIPlusImageFromResource(LONG_PTR ResourceHandle, BSTR ResourceType, BSTR ResourceName, LONG_PTR* pGDIPlusImage);

object

A SftBox object.

ResourceHandle

The instance handle of the application or DLL containing the resource.

ResourceType

The resource type. Can be a string or an identifier using the MAKEINTRESOURCE macro.

ResourceName

The resource name. Can be a string or an identifier using the MAKEINTRESOURCE macro.

pGDIPlusImage

Returns a Gdiplus::Image pointer or NULL/Nothing if the function failed.

Comments

The LoadGDIPlusImageFromResource method loads a GDI+ image from a resource.

A GDI+ image created using LoadGDIPlusImage or LoadGDIPlusImageFromResource must be freed using DeleteGDIPlusImage (or the equivalent "delete Gdiplus::Image*", which is usually accessible to C++ applications only).

This method is mainly intended for applications written using a language that does not have direct access to GDI+ (such as VB6). Other languages usually have direct access to GDI+ (such as C++) or have other mechanisms (NETImageObject for .NET applications).
