MaskBlt in GDIPlus using VC++

[Ramakrishna_V]

Hi,

Is there any function in GDI+ to implemt the functionality of MaskBlt in GDI?
The objective is to merge the content of two device contexts based on a reference bitmap (mask bitmap).

Is raster operations is possible with GDI+? This can be done in GDI with BitBlt function giving the raster mode as SRCAND, SRCCOPY, etc..

Thanks,

As shown in the link i gave you in THIS THREAD (http://www.codeguru.com/forum/showthread.php?t=370541), GDI+ has a little bit different philosophy than the "classical" Windows GDI.
Do not expect to find here in exactly the same form the stuff from GDI, although GDI+ has more powerful fratures and usually allows you to achieve easier the final result.
So what you have to do is to let GDI for a while and study GDI+, in other words to start "Thinking in GDI+". ;)
