Function Documentation

HINSTANCE MaxSDK::GetHInstance ( )

inline

Get the calling module's HINSTANCE.

Returns

Handle pointing to the start of the calling module.

{
    return reinterpret_cast<HINSTANCE>(&__ImageBase);
}

MSTR MaxSDK::GetResourceStringAsMSTR ( UINT  resourceId )

inline

Extract a resource from the calling module's string table.

GetResourceStringAsMSTR is essentially a thread-safe wrapper around the Win32 API's LoadString, but it saves client code from the bother of dealing with its HINSTANCE, of maintaining a buffer, and reduces duplicated code.

Parameters

resourceId

Identifier for the desired string resource within the calling module's string table.

Returns

An MSTR containing the resource string, empty if the requested resource is not found.

{
    return MaxSDK::GetResourceStringAsMSTR(GetHInstance(), resourceId);
}

bool MaxSDK::GetResourceStringAsMSTR ( UINT  resourceId, MSTR &  resourceString  )

inline

Extract a resource from the calling module's string table.

GetResourceStringAsMSTR is essentially a thread-safe wrapper around the Win32 API's LoadString, but it saves client code from the bother of dealing with its HINSTANCE, of maintaining a buffer, and reduces duplicated code.

Parameters

resourceId	Identifier for the desired string resource within the calling module's string table.
resourceString	Updated to contain the resource string if the requested resource is not found.

Returns

true if the requested resource is found, false if not

{
    return MaxSDK::GetResourceStringAsMSTR(GetHInstance(), resourceId, resourceString);

}

UtilExport MSTR MaxSDK::GetResourceStringAsMSTR	(	HINSTANCE	hinstance,
		UINT	resourceId
	)

Extract a resource from a module's string table.

GetResourceString is essentially a thread-safe wrapper around the Win32 API's LoadString, but it saves client code from the bother of maintaining a buffer and reduces duplicated code. Optimally, GetResourceString should be called through the single-parameter version from dllutilities.h.

Parameters

hinstance	Handle to the module whose string table will be queried for the resource.
resourceId	Identifier for the desired string resource within the calling module's string table.

Returns

An MSTR containing the resource string, empty if the requested resource is not found.

UtilExport bool MaxSDK::GetResourceStringAsMSTR	(	HINSTANCE	hinstance,
		UINT	resourceId,
		MSTR &	resourceString
	)

Extract a resource from a module's string table.

GetResourceString is essentially a thread-safe wrapper around the Win32 API's LoadString, but it saves client code from the bother of maintaining a buffer and reduces duplicated code. Optimally, GetResourceString should be called through the single-parameter version from dllutilities.h.

Parameters

hinstance	Handle to the module whose string table will be queried for the resource.
resourceId	Identifier for the desired string resource within the calling module's string table.
resourceString	Updated to contain the resource string if the requested resource is not found.

Returns

true if the requested resource is found, false if not
