I'm trying to load an image from a file for a static control with the SS_BITMAP style, but LoadImage only gets the image from the resources, I never used them before, I tried adding the file to "Resourses" folder (filter) but I guess that it isn't enough.

How can I load an image from a file or add one to resources?

open .bmp in binary, copy the bitmap into a bitmap variable (or whatever it is).

put the image in the project folder where the source is. Create a new rc.

#define IMAGE 4000

(resource.h)

IMAGE BITMAP DISCARDABLE "image.bmp"

(resource.rc)


IMAGE is changed to w/e and image.bmp is your image name.



Then just load the image (you can find how on forgers win32 tut)

That isn't an option if he wants to do it programatically (say to get user inputted images).

Using LoadImage with the IMAGE_BITMAP parameter, and LR_LOADFROMFILE flag should work.

Thanks everyone, I'll try it.

Edit: thanks lurc, I didn't see that option in MSDN.
