The PathToRegion
function creates a region from the path that is selected into the specified
device context.
HRGN PathToRegion(
HDC hdc |
// handle to device
context |
); |

Parameters
hdc
Identifies a
device context that contains a closed path.
Return Values
If the
function succeeds, the return value identifies a valid region.
If the
function fails, the return value is zero. To get extended error information,
call GetLastError
ERROR_CAN_NOT_COMPLETE
ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER

Remarks
The device context
identified by the hdc parameter must contain a closed path.
After PathToRegion
converts a path into a region, Windows discards the closed path from the
specified device context.
