3 | A memory device context provides a means to draw graphics onto a bitmap. When | |
4 | drawing in to a mono-bitmap, using {\tt wxWHITE}, {\tt wxWHITE\_PEN} and | |
5 | {\tt wxWHITE\_BRUSH} | |
6 | will draw the background colour (i.e. 0) whereas all other colours will draw the | |
7 | foreground colour (i.e. 1). | |

19 | ||
20 | A bitmap must be selected into the new memory DC before it may be used | |
21 | for anything. Typical usage is as follows: | |
22 | ||
23 | \begin{verbatim} | |
24 | // Create a memory DC | |
25 | wxMemoryDC temp_dc; | |
26 | temp_dc.SelectObject(test_bitmap); | |
27 | ||
28 | // We can now draw into the memory DC... | |
29 | // Copy from this DC to another DC. | |
30 | old_dc.Blit(250, 50, BITMAP_WIDTH, BITMAP_HEIGHT, temp_dc, 0, 0); | |
31 | \end{verbatim} | |
32 | ||
33 | Note that the memory DC {\it must} be deleted (or the bitmap selected out of it) before a bitmap | |
34 | can be reselected into another memory DC. | |

43 | ||
44 | \func{}{wxMemoryDC}{\void} | |
45 | ||
46 | Constructs a new memory device context. | |
47 | ||
48 | Use the \helpref{IsOk}{wxdcisok} member to test whether the constructor was successful | |
49 | in creating a usable device context. | |
50 | Don't forget to select a bitmap into the DC before drawing on it. | |
51 | ||
52 | \func{}{wxMemoryDC}{\param{wxBitmap\& }{bitmap}} | |
53 | ||
54 | Constructs a new memory device context and calls \helpref{SelectObject}{wxmemorydcselectobject} | |
55 | with the given bitmap. | |
56 | Use the \helpref{IsOk}{wxdcisok} member to test whether the constructor was successful | |
57 | in creating a usable device context. | |
58 | ||
59 | ||
60 | \membersection{wxMemoryDC::SelectObject}\label{wxmemorydcselectobject} | |
61 | ||
62 | \func{void}{SelectObject}{\param{wxBitmap\& }{bitmap}} | |
63 | ||
64 | Works exactly like \helpref{SelectObjectAsSource}{wxmemorydcselectobjectassource} but | |
65 | this is the function you should use when you select a bitmap because you want to modify | |
66 | it, e.g. drawing on this DC. | |
67 | ||
68 | Be careful to use this function and not \helpref{SelectObjectAsSource}{wxmemorydcselectobjectassource} | |
69 | when you want to modify the bitmap you are selecting otherwise you may incurr in some | |
70 | problems related to wxBitmap being a reference counted object | |
71 | (see \helpref{reference counting overview}{trefcount}). | |

82 | ||
83 | Selects the given bitmap into the device context, to use as the memory | |
84 | bitmap. Selecting the bitmap into a memory DC allows you to draw into | |
85 | the DC (and therefore the bitmap) and also to use \helpref{wxDC::Blit}{wxdcblit} to copy | |
86 | the bitmap to a window. For this purpose, you may find \helpref{wxDC::DrawIcon}{wxdcdrawicon}\rtfsp | |
87 | easier to use instead. | |
88 | ||
89 | If the argument is wxNullBitmap (or some other uninitialised wxBitmap) the current bitmap is | |
90 | selected out of the device context, and the original bitmap restored, allowing the current bitmap to | |
91 | be destroyed safely. | |
