CMTranslateColors

The CMTranslateColors function translates an array of colors from a source color space to a destination color space using a color transform.

BOOL WINAPI CMTranslateColors(
  HCMTRANSFORM hcmTransform,   LPCOLOR lpaInputColors,   DWORD nColors,  COLORTYPE ctInput,   LPCOLOR lpaOutputColors,  COLORTYPE ctOutput);

Parameters

  • hcmTransform
    Specifies the color transform to use.
  • lpaInputColors
    Points to an array of COLOR structures to translate.
  • nColors
    Specifies the number of elements in the array.
  • ctInput
    Specifies the color type of the input.
  • lpaOutputColors
    Points to a buffer in which an array of translated COLOR structures is to be placed.
  • ctOutput
    Specifies the output color type.

Return Values

If this function succeeds, the return value is TRUE.

If this function fails, the return value is FALSE. The CMM should call SetLastError to set the last error to a valid error value defined in Winerror.h.

Remarks

Every CMM is required to export this function.

If the input and the output color types are not compatible with the color transform, this function should fail.

Note that this function must support in-place translation. That is, whenever the memory footprint of the output is less than or equal to the memory footprint of the input, this function must be able to translate the bitmap colors even if the source and destination buffers are the same.

Requirements

**  Windows NT/2000/XP/Vista:** Included in Windows 2000 and later.
**  Windows 95/98/Me:** Included in Windows 98 and later.
**  Header:** Declared in Wingdi.h.
