ICM_DRAW_BEGIN
The
ICM_DRAW_BEGIN message notifies a rendering driver to prepare to draw data.
ICM_DRAW_BEGIN
wParam = (DWORD) (LPVOID) &icdrwBgn;
lParam = sizeof(ICDRAW);
Parameters
icdrwBgn
Address of an
ICDRAWBEGIN
lParam
Size, in
bytes, of ICDRAWBEGIN.
Return Values
Returns
ICERR_OK if the driver supports drawing the data to the screen in the specified
manner and format, or an error code otherwise. Possible error values include the
following:
ICERR_BADFORMAT |
Input or
output format is not supported. |
ICERR_NOTSUPPORTED |
Driver does
not draw directly to the screen or does not support this message. |
Remarks
If you want
the driver to decompress data into a buffer, send the ICM_DECOMPRESS_BEGIN
message.
The
ICM_DRAW_BEGIN and ICM_DRAW_END messages do not nest. If your driver receives
ICM_DRAW_BEGIN before decompression is stopped with ICM_DRAW_END, it should restart
decompression with new parameters.
