CBrush::CreateBrushIndirect
Initializes a brush with a style, color, and pattern specified in a LOGBRUSH structure.
BOOL CreateBrushIndirect(
const LOGBRUSH* lpLogBrush
);
Parameters
- lpLogBrush
Points to a LOGBRUSH structure that contains information about the brush.
Return Value
Nonzero if the function is successful; otherwise 0.
Remarks
The brush can subsequently be selected as the current brush for any device context.
A brush created using a monochrome (1 plane, 1 bit per pixel) bitmap is drawn using the current text and background colors. Pixels represented by a bit set to 0 will be drawn with the current text color. Pixels represented by a bit set to 1 will be drawn with the current background color.
Example
// Initialize a LOGBRUSH structure.
LOGBRUSH logBrush;
logBrush.lbStyle = BS_HATCHED;
logBrush.lbColor = RGB(0, 192, 192);
logBrush.lbHatch = HS_CROSS;
// Declare an uninitialized CBrush ...
CBrush brush;
// ... and initialize it with the LOGBRUSH.
brush.CreateBrushIndirect(&logBrush);
// Select the brush (and perhaps a pen) into
// the device context.
CBrush* pOldBrush = (CBrush*)pDC->SelectObject(&brush);
CPen* pOldPen = (CPen*)pDC->SelectStockObject(BLACK_PEN);
// Have fun!
pDC->Pie(CRect(100, 100, 300, 300), CPoint(0, 0), CPoint(50, 200));
// Restore the original device context objects.
pDC->SelectObject(pOldBrush);
pDC->SelectObject(pOldPen);
