Use HBITMAP in dll (Logitech SDK)

I'm writing a plugin for the musicplayer named MusicBee. The plugin is for the Logitech G keyboards LCD. For the Logitech G19 keyboards I will add a nice background from a bitmap file. The sdk says that I must use HBITMAP to create a background. Now I use the HBITMAP and the background ins't showing. This is the code for the background and logo on the main page of the plugin. 

m_lcd.ModifyDisplay(LG_COLOR);
    background =(HBITMAP) LoadImage( NULL, L"Logitech/G19logo.bmp", IMAGE_BITMAP, 0, 0, LR_LOADFROMFILE);
    m_lcd.SetBackground(background);
    logo = m_lcd.AddText(LG_STATIC_TEXT, LG_BIG, DT_CENTER, LGLCD_QVGA_BMP_WIDTH);
    m_lcd.SetOrigin(logo, 0, 50);
    m_lcd.SetText(logo, _T("MusicBee"));
    m_lcd.SetTextFontColor(logo, RGB(0,0,0));
    m_lcd.Update();

What is the problem that the background nog showing?

Solution

  • From your reply in the comments, it seems the problem is with the LoadImage call, so we can ignore the rest of the code for now. Call GetLastError right after the LoadImage call fails and see what it returns.

    Only be a few things can go wrong with a LoadImage call like that:

    • You could have the file name wrong. (GetLastError will return ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND)
    • You're using a relative path, but maybe the current working directory isn't where you think it is. (GetLastError will return ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND or ERROR_PATH_NOT_FOUND.)
    • Maybe that API doesn't work with slashes in place of backslashes.
    • Maybe you don't have access to read the file. (GetLastError will return ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED or ERROR_NETWORK_ACCESS_DENIED.)
    • Maybe another application has the file open without sharing. (GetLastError will return ERROR_SHARING_VIOLATION.)
    • Maybe the file isn't a valid bitmap. (I'm not sure what GetLastError will return here. Perhaps something like ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER.)
    • Maybe it's a gigantic bitmap and there's not enough memory to load it. (GetLastError will return ERROR_NOT_ENOUGH_MEMORY.)

    In general, when debugging, isolate the point in the code where things go bad (once you know LoadImage failed, you can stop worrying about all the code that happens after that). Then get as much information as you can (e.g., if it's a Windows API call that failed, call GetLastError and re-read the entire MSDN page for that API, use a debugger to examine the relative state at that point). From there, it will usually be pretty obvious what to do. If not, write the simplest program you can that does the same step. If it works, study the differences between your simple example and your actual code.
