wxBitmap::wxBitmap
wxBitmap::wxBitmapwxBitmap() Default constructor. wxBitmap(const wxBitmap& bitmap) Copy constructor, uses reference counting. To make a real copy, you can use:
wxBitmap newBitmap = oldBitmap.GetSubBitmap( wxRect(0, 0, oldBitmap.GetWidth(), oldBitmap.GetHeight()));wxBitmap(const void* data, int type, int width, int height, int depth = -1) Creates a bitmap from the given data which is interpreted in platform-dependent manner.
wxBitmap(const char bits[], int width, int height Creates a bitmap from an array of bits. You should only use this function for monochrome bitmaps (depth 1) in portable programs: in this case the bits parameter should contain an XBM image. For other bit depths, the behaviour is platform dependent: under Windows, the data is passed without any changes to the underlying CreateBitmap() API. Under other platforms, only monochrome bitmaps may be created using this constructor and wxImage should be used for creating colour bitmaps from static data. wxBitmap(int width, int height, int depth = -1) Creates a new bitmap. A depth of -1 indicates the depth of the current screen or visual. Some platforms only support 1 for monochrome and -1 for the current colour setting. Beginning with version 2.5.4 of wxWidgets a depth of 32 including an alpha channel is supported under MSW, Mac and GTK+. wxBitmap(const char* const* bits) Creates a bitmap from XPM data. wxBitmap(const wxString& name, long type) Loads a bitmap from a file or resource. wxBitmap(const wxImage& img, int depth = -1) Creates bitmap object from the image. This has to be done to actually display an image as you cannot draw an image directly on a window. The resulting bitmap will use the provided colour depth (or that of the current system if depth is -1) which entails that a colour reduction has to take place. When in 8-bit mode (PseudoColour mode), the GTK port will use a color cube created on program start-up to look up colors. This ensures a very fast conversion, but the image quality won't be perfect (and could be better for photo images using more sophisticated dithering algorithms). On Windows, if there is a palette present (set with SetPalette), it will be used when creating the wxBitmap (most useful in 8-bit display mode). On other platforms, the palette is currently ignored. Parameters bits
width
height
depth
name
type
The validity of these flags depends on the platform and wxWidgets configuration. If all possible wxWidgets settings are used, the Windows platform supports BMP file, BMP resource, XPM data, and XPM. Under wxGTK, the available formats are BMP file, XPM data, XPM file, and PNG file. Under wxMotif, the available formats are XBM data, XBM file, XPM data, XPM file. In addition, wxBitmap can read all formats that wxImage can, which currently include wxBITMAP_TYPE_JPEG, wxBITMAP_TYPE_TIF, wxBITMAP_TYPE_PNG, wxBITMAP_TYPE_GIF, wxBITMAP_TYPE_PCX, and wxBITMAP_TYPE_PNM. Of course, you must have wxImage handlers loaded. img
Remarks The first form constructs a bitmap object with no data; an assignment or another member function such as Create or LoadFile must be called subsequently. The second and third forms provide copy constructors. Note that these do not copy the bitmap data, but instead a pointer to the data, keeping a reference count. They are therefore very efficient operations. The fourth form constructs a bitmap from data whose type and value depends on the value of the type argument. The fifth form constructs a (usually monochrome) bitmap from an array of pixel values, under both X and Windows. The sixth form constructs a new bitmap. The seventh form constructs a bitmap from pixmap (XPM) data, if wxWidgets has been configured to incorporate this feature. To use this constructor, you must first include an XPM file. For example, assuming that the file mybitmap.xpm contains an XPM array of character pointers called mybitmap:
#include "mybitmap.xpm" ... wxBitmap *bitmap = new wxBitmap(mybitmap);The eighth form constructs a bitmap from a file or resource. name can refer to a resource name under MS Windows, or a filename under MS Windows and X. Under Windows, type defaults to wxBITMAP_TYPE_BMP_RESOURCE. Under X, type defaults to wxBITMAP_TYPE_XPM. See also wxPython note: Constructors supported by wxPython are:
wxPerl note: Constructors supported by wxPerl are:
wxBitmap::~wxBitmap~wxBitmap() Destructor. See reference-counted object destruction for more info. If the application omits to delete the bitmap explicitly, the bitmap will be destroyed automatically by wxWidgets when the application exits. Do not delete a bitmap that is selected into a memory device context.
wxBitmap::AddHandlerstatic void AddHandler(wxBitmapHandler* handler) Adds a handler to the end of the static list of format handlers. handler
See also
wxBitmap::CleanUpHandlersstatic void CleanUpHandlers() Deletes all bitmap handlers. This function is called by wxWidgets on exit.
wxBitmap::ConvertToImagewxImage ConvertToImage() Creates an image from a platform-dependent bitmap. This preserves mask information so that bitmaps and images can be converted back and forth without loss in that respect.
wxBitmap::CopyFromIconbool CopyFromIcon(const wxIcon& icon) Creates the bitmap from an icon.
wxBitmap::Createvirtual bool Create(int width, int height, int depth = -1) Creates a fresh bitmap. If the final argument is omitted, the display depth of the screen is used. virtual bool Create(const void* data, int type, int width, int height, int depth = -1) Creates a bitmap from the given data, which can be of arbitrary type. Parameters width
height
depth
data
type
Return value true if the call succeeded, false otherwise. Remarks The first form works on all platforms. The portability of the second form depends on the type of data. See also
wxBitmap::FindHandlerstatic wxBitmapHandler* FindHandler(const wxString& name) Finds the handler with the given name. static wxBitmapHandler* FindHandler(const wxString& extension, wxBitmapType bitmapType) Finds the handler associated with the given extension and type. static wxBitmapHandler* FindHandler(wxBitmapType bitmapType) Finds the handler associated with the given bitmap type. name
extension
bitmapType
Return value A pointer to the handler if found, NULL otherwise. See also
wxBitmap::GetDepthint GetDepth() const Gets the colour depth of the bitmap. A value of 1 indicates a monochrome bitmap.

wxBitmap::GetWidthint GetWidth() const Gets the width of the bitmap in pixels. See also
wxBitmap::GetSubBitmapwxBitmap GetSubBitmap(const wxRect&rect) const Returns a sub bitmap of the current one as long as the rect belongs entirely to the bitmap. This function preserves bit depth and mask information.
wxBitmap::InitStandardHandlersstatic void InitStandardHandlers() Adds the standard bitmap format handlers, which, depending on wxWidgets configuration, can be handlers for Windows bitmap, Windows bitmap resource, and XPM. This function is called by wxWidgets on startup. See also
wxBitmap::InsertHandlerstatic void InsertHandler(wxBitmapHandler* handler) Adds a handler at the start of the static list of format handlers. handler

wxBitmap::LoadFilebool LoadFile(const wxString& name, wxBitmapType type) Loads a bitmap from a file or resource. Parameters name
type
The validity of these flags depends on the platform and wxWidgets configuration. In addition, wxBitmap can read all formats that wxImage can (wxBITMAP_TYPE_JPEG, wxBITMAP_TYPE_PNG, wxBITMAP_TYPE_GIF, wxBITMAP_TYPE_PCX, wxBITMAP_TYPE_PNM). (Of course you must have wxImage handlers loaded.) Return value true if the operation succeeded, false otherwise. Remarks A palette may be associated with the bitmap if one exists (especially for colour Windows bitmaps), and if the code supports it. You can check if one has been created by using the GetPalette member. See also
