Q: Copying HDC ...

[Hadi Rezaie]

Hi there,

In a part of my application i copied an HDC to another like this :

HDC hSrcDC;

if ( bState )
 hSrcDC = g_DC1 ;
else
 hSrcDC = g_DC2 ;

I just used hSrcDC for drawing , it didnt get modified and didnt change ... just used for drawing use ..

Want to know do i need to release it ?! ( myself, i think i dont need to )

Regards,

Hi,
you don't have to relase hSrcDC, because it is only a handle and you did not make a copy of this handle. You only assigned the value to a another variable.

You can use bitblt to copy the contents of 1 DC to another DC.
