PolyBezierTo

  BOOL PolyBezierTo(hdc, lpPoints, nCount)    
  HDC hdc; /* handle of device context */
  LPPOINT lpPoints; /* address of endpoints and control points */
  DWORD nCount; /* count of endpoints and control points */

The PolyBezierTo function draws one or more Bezier curves.

Parameters

hdc

Identifies a device context.

lpPoints

Points to an array of POINT structures which contains the endpoints and the control points. The POINT structure has the following form:

typedef struct tagPOINT { /* pt */

LONG x;

LONG y;

} POINT;

nCount

Specifies the number of points in the lpPoints array. This value must be three times the number of curves to be drawn, since each Bezier curve requires two control points and an end point.

Return Value

The return value is TRUE if the curves were drawn. Otherwise, it is FALSE.

Comments

This function draws cubic Bezier splines using the control points specified by the lpPoints parameter. The first curve is drawn from the current position to the third point, using the first two points as control points. For each subsequent curve, the function needs exactly three more points, and uses the end point of the previous curve as the start point for the next.

PolyBezierTo moves the current position to the end point of the last Bezier curve. The figure is not filled.

This function draws lines with the currently selected pen.
