LockResource
The LockResource
function locks the specified resource in memory.
LPVOID LockResource(
|
HGLOBAL hResData |
// handle to
resource to lock |
|
); |
|
Parameters
hResData
Identifies
the resource to be locked. The LoadResource function returns this handle.
Return Values
If the loaded
resource is locked, the return value is a pointer to the first byte of the
resource; otherwise, it is NULL.
Remarks
It is not
necessary for Win32-based applications to unlock resources that were locked by
the LockResource function.
Trying to
lock a resource by using the handle returned by the FindResource or FindResourceEx
function will not work. You will get back a value that is incorrect and points
to random data.
