Hai all,
i have a timer with 1 interval and it keep bitblt'ing screen in to a memory dc.
my question is,
do i need to create and delete the memory dc on each interval or better i i create the dc at form load and keep bitblt on to it and delete it on forum unload.
:)
2nd option seems better :)
Hai pradeep,
Thanks for the answer.
let me see few other openions also :D
pradeep, ar you sure the second option is the best solution?
if i tried, out of memory occours :(
Fazi show us your code, It sounds like you might be forgetting to destroy some GDI objects.
Like PraDeep, I would keep the DC and the Bitmap alive for the duration, but at the end of the day I don't think there is much in it either way.
Milk, seems yes,
let me check it then.
Agreed as long as we are only talking about a couple of DCs. Where people go overboard is when they have like 100 images and also have 100 DCs -- waste of resources when only a one or two DCs are needed at any one time; sometimes a few more depending on situations.Quote:

now i put it to form load as you and predeep suggessed earlier to keep it though out the session and distroyed at the unload of form.

Yes, and from the top of my head the most I could conceive using would be 3.Quote:

1 and now made it to 100 y milk?
Only because I thought you meant 1 and then you mentioned a second which would tip the balance for me making me more inclined to create the DC each time, basically because it would be just sitting there doing nothing for 99% of the time. It's much of a muchness anyway.
Good luck with your prog :)
yah it was just 1 ms only. now it is 100 ms,
Thank you.
