WM_PAINT and PeekMessage

Edit: Can't change thread title...This problem is not really related to PeekMessage.

Nevermind my earlier post, I have a working draw routine, but it leaks GDI resources by the thousands...

Code:

	
HBITMAP hbmOld;
	
HDC hdc = GetDC(hwnd);
HDC hdcMem = CreateCompatibleDC(hdc);
hbmTemp = CreateCompatibleBitmap(hdc, 256, 240);
	
SetDIBits(hdcMem, hbmTemp, 0, 256, bmMainBits, bmiMain, DIB_RGB_COLORS);
	
hbmOld = SelectObject(hdcMem, hbmTemp);
BitBlt(hdc, 0, 0, 240, 256, hdcMem, 0, 0, SRCCOPY);

SelectObject(hdcMem, hbmOld);
DeleteDC(hdcMem);
ReleaseDC(hwnd, hdc);

I clean up the compatible DC with DeleteDC, I clean up the window DC with ReleaseDC and select the default bitmap before I delete the memory DC. I read the MSDN section several times but I still can't see what I'm leaking.

1. Check the return values

If the function fails, the return value is zero.

Windows NT/2000/XP: To get extended error information, call GetLastError.

2.

CreateCompatibleBitmap creates a DIB section.

When you no longer need the bitmap, call the DeleteObject function to delete it.

When you no longer need the bitmap, call the DeleteObject function to delete it.

That patched up the leaks. Thanks!.
