Members
- dsBm
- Specifies a BITMAPdata structure that contains information about the device-independent bitmap: its type, dimensions, color capacities, and a pointer to its bit values.
- dsBmih
- Specifies a bitmap information header structure that contains information about the color format of the DIB. Use the BITMAPINFOHEADERstructure.
- dsBitfields
- Specifies three DWORDcolor masks for the device-independent bitmap. This member is only valid when the BitCountmember of the BITMAP INFORMATION HEADERstructure has a value greater than 8. Each color mask indicates the bits within a DWORDused to encode one of the three color channels (red, green, and blue).
- dshSection
- Contains a handle to the file mapping object that the CreateDIBSectionfunction used to create the device-independent bitmap. If CreateDIBSectionwas called with a NULL value for its hSectionparameter, causing the system to allocate memory for the bitmap, the dshSectionmember will be NULL.
- dsOffset
- Specifies the offset to the bitmap's bit values within the file
mapping object referenced by
dshSection. If
dshSectionis NULL, the
dsOffsetvalue has no meaning.
