ClipboardGetGIF Function

Overview

The ClipboardGetGIF function retrieves Graphic Interchange Format (GIF) data from the clipboard, if available, in the form of a Data Object.

Syntax/Parameters

Syntax

handle = ClipboardGetGIF ( [handle hClipboard] );

Parameters

hClipboard

An optional handle specifying an open Clipboard Object. If a handle is not specified, or specified as NULL_HANDLE, the default clipboard is open. If a Clipboard Object is open, it is automatically selected, and, if no object is open, a new object is opened and then closed upon completion of the function.

Return Value

Returns a handle to a Data Object or a NULL_HANDLE on failure. Use the GetLastError function to retrieve error information. The handle should be released with the CloseHandle function.

Remarks

The data retrieved from the clipboard should be in GIF format. Some applications may present poor quality GIF data or claim GIF is available and then not render data to the clipboard.
