Images

[Dannyo329]

Is there any way to add images onto your program?
I'm using Dev-C++

Thanx

Depends how you program. If you're programming a GUI, like with win32api or mfc maybe, it's a doddle. There's this for displaying a picture in dos - http://faq.cprogramming.com/cgi-bin/smartfaq.cgi?answer=1044665557&id=1043284392 but I don't know if it works.

It is also possible to do graphics in a console window but I dont know if it what you are looking for. You could easily use BitBlt instead of just LineTo but here is an example:

#define _WIN32_WINNT 0x0500
#include<windows.h>
#include<iostream>
using namespace std;

int main() {
	HWND console = GetConsoleWindow();
	HDC hdc = GetDC(console);
	SelectObject(hdc, CreatePen(0, 30, RGB(255,255,255)));
	POINT p;
	GetCursorPos(&p);
	ScreenToClient(console, &p);
	MoveToEx(hdc, p.x, p.y, NULL);
	for (;;) {
		GetCursorPos(&p);
		ScreenToClient(console, &p);
		LineTo(hdc, p.x, p.y);
		Sleep(1);
	}
	ReleaseDC(console, hdc);
	cin.ignore();
	return 0;
}

I'm using win32, and I'm just trying to put any image on, with words as well.
Just like a babyish picutre book.......
