How to get filename from resource ID?

[Yan Yang]

I am trying to display a GIF image in a static control. The GIF image is loaded using GDI+, it needs the image filename passed to the image construction, I want to obtain the filename from the resource ID, but I could not get it from the code below.

Any suggestion would be appreciated.


HBITMAP ctrlBitmap(NULL);

Gdiplus::GdiplusStartupInput gdiplusStartupInput;
ULONG_PTR gdiplusToken;
Gdiplus::GdiplusStartup(&gdiplusToken, &gdiplusStartupInput, NULL);

LPCTSTR lpszResourceName = MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDB_THICKNESSXY);
ASSERT(lpszResourceName != NULL);
HINSTANCE hInst = AfxFindResourceHandle(lpszResourceName, RT_RCDATA);
HRSRC hResInfo = ::FindResource(hInst, lpszResourceName, RT_RCDATA);
HGLOBAL hResData = ::LoadResource(hInst, hResInfo);
char* data = (char*):LockResource(hResData));
DWORD len = ::SizeofResource(NULL, hResInfo);
CString filename(data, len);

Gdiplus::Bitmap* bitmap = new Gdiplus::Bitmap(filename);
Gdiplus::Status status = bitmap->GetHBITMAP(NULL, &ctrlBitmap);

Gdiplus::GdiplusShutdown(gdiplusToken);

GetParent()->GetPropertySheet()->SetControlImage(ctrlBitmap);
