Setting and Retrieving the Device Context Brush Color Value
The following example shows how an application can retrieve the current DC brush color by using the SetDCBrushColor and the GetDCBrushColor functions.
SelectObject(hdc,GetStockObject(DC_BRUSH));
SetDCBrushColor(hdc,RGB(00,0xff,00));
PatBlt(hdc,0,0,200,200,PATCOPY);
SetDCBrushColor(hdc,RGB(00,00,0xff));
PatBlt(hdc,0,0,200,200,PATCOPY);
