CRgn::CreateFromPath

Creates a region from the path that is selected into the given device context.

BOOL CreateFromPath(
   CDC* pDC 
);

Parameters

  • pDC
    Identifies a device context that contains a closed path.

Return Value

Nonzero if the function is successful; otherwise 0.

Remarks

The device context identified by the pDC parameter must contain a closed path. After CreateFromPath converts a path into a region, Windows discards the closed path from the device context.
