How to clone an icon

Question

In Windows, given a handle to an icon (HICON), how do you clone it?

e.g.

HICON CloneIcon(HICON OriginalIcon)
{
    ICON clone;
    //...

    return clone;
}

Answer 1

Use the Win32 API function DuplicateIcon:

HICON CloneIcon(HICON OriginalIcon)
{
    return DuplicateIcon(NULL, OriginalIcon); //first parameter is unused
}
