CLIPOBJ_cEnumStart

ULONG CLIPOBJ_cEnumStart(

    IN CLIPOBJ  *pco,
   IN BOOL  bAll,
   IN ULONG  iType,
   IN ULONG  iDir,
   IN ULONG  cLimit
  );

CLIPOBJ_cEnumStart sets parameters for enumerating rectangles in a specified clip region.

Parameters

pco

Points to the CLIPOBJ structure that defines the clip region to be enumerated.

bAll

Specifies whether the entire region should be enumerated. This parameter is TRUE if the whole region should be enumerated. It is FALSE if only the parts relevant to the present drawing operation should be enumerated.

A driver that caches clip regions must enumerate the entire region.

iType

Specifies the data structures that are to be written by CLIPOBJ_bEnum. This parameter currently must be CT_RECTANGLES, indicating that the region is to be enumerated as a list of rectangles.

iDir

Determines the order in which the rectangles are to be enumerated. This order can be essential if a DrvBitBlt operation is executing concurrently on the same surface. If the order is not relevant to the device driver, CD_ANY should be specified for complex regions, allowing GDI to optimize the enumeration. This value can be one of the following:

Value Meaning
CD_RIGHTDOWN Left to right, top to bottom.
CD_LEFTDOWN Right to left, top to bottom.
CD_RIGHTUP Left to right, bottom to top.
CD_LEFTUP Right to left, bottom to top.
CD_ANY Any order convenient for GDI.

cLimit

Specifies the maximum number of rectangles to be enumerated. If this parameter is zero, counting is omitted.

Return Value

The return value is the count of enumerated rectangles. If the count exceeds cLimit, the return value is 0xFFFFFFFF.

Comments

A region can be enumerated whether or not this function is called. By default, the driver only enumerates relevant rectangles, starting at the upper left.

The driver can restart enumeration by calling this function again.
