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).
