Question:
How do I load a bitmap using the VCL?
Answer:
To load a bitmap from a file,
Graphics::TBitmap *MyBitmap = new Graphics::TBitmap();
MyBitmap->LoadFromFile("my_picture.bmp");
To display it on a canvas,
TRect DestRect;
DestRect.Left = 0;
DestRect.Top = 0;
DestRect.Right = 250;
DestRect.Bottom = 250;
Canvas->StretchDraw(DestRect, MyBitmap);
