BitBlt

[Scorpion-ice]

I'm using the Visual Borland Builder 3 Standard compiler and wondered if anyone wouldnt mind helping me learn the "BitBlt" technique, an example would be greate that I can compile and learn from, I don't want to be loading external bmp's into the application though, if anyone knows how and wouldn't mind writing me an example I would be extremely grateful.

Email it to me at: scorpion_ice@yahoo.com

Thankyou

When you say

"I don't want to be loading external bmp's into the application"

Does that mean you would like the bitmaps to be resources, or...? I would be more than happy to write you a simple application demonstrating a bitblt operation. I'll try to post the code tomorrow when I have time.

Having the bitmaps already within the executable which I can use for the BitBlt.

And thankyou :)

My snake game does this Scorpion-ice, have a look if you wish.

Ack, someone beat me to it. I didn't see you reply until today. Anyways if you need another example just let me know.

[Scorpion-ice]

Sure, all examples will be useful in helping me learn this, hopefully well commented too ;)

This is a rather elementary example but should serve the purpose of instruction. If you have any questions on it let me know. Hope it helps you.
