Extract cursor image in Java
The Cursor class is pretty abstract - all the important stuff is delegated to native code, so you can't just draw one onto at graphics context. There isn't an immediately obvious way of getting round the need to either predefine the icons or do it in native code.
could you help me use that function you mentioned?
Below is some code to draw built-in Windows cursors using the JNA library. If you can use JNA, you can avoid C++ compilers.
I'm probably making too many native calls, but the cost is not significant for one-shot icon generation.

Code to display a cursor as a Java image:
public class LoadCursor {
public static void draw(BufferedImage image, int cursor,
int diFlags) {
int width = image.getWidth();
int height = image.getHeight();
User32 user32 = User32.INSTANCE;
Gdi32 gdi32 = Gdi32.INSTANCE;
Pointer hIcon = user32
.LoadCursorW(Pointer.NULL, cursor);
Pointer hdc = gdi32.CreateCompatibleDC(Pointer.NULL);
Pointer bitmap = gdi32.CreateCompatibleBitmap(hdc,
width, height);
gdi32.SelectObject(hdc, bitmap);
user32.DrawIconEx(hdc, 0, 0, hIcon, width, height, 0,
Pointer.NULL, diFlags);
for (int x = 0; x < width; x++) {
for (int y = 0; y < width; y++) {
int rgb = gdi32.GetPixel(hdc, x, y);
image.setRGB(x, y, rgb);
}
}
gdi32.DeleteObject(bitmap);
gdi32.DeleteDC(hdc);
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
final int width = 128;
final int height = 128;
BufferedImage image = new BufferedImage(width, height,
BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_ARGB);
draw(image, User32.IDC_HAND, User32.DI_NORMAL);
BufferedImage mask = new BufferedImage(width, height,
BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB);
draw(mask, User32.IDC_HAND, User32.DI_MASK);
applyMask(image, mask);
JLabel icon = new JLabel();
icon.setIcon(new ImageIcon(image));
JFrame frame = new JFrame();
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
frame.setContentPane(icon);
frame.pack();
frame.setVisible(true);
}
private static void applyMask(BufferedImage image,
BufferedImage mask) {
int width = image.getWidth();
int height = image.getHeight();
for (int x = 0; x < width; x++) {
for (int y = 0; y < height; y++) {
int masked = mask.getRGB(x, y);
if ((masked & 0x00FFFFFF) == 0) {
int rgb = image.getRGB(x, y);
rgb = 0xFF000000 | rgb;
image.setRGB(x, y, rgb);
}
}
}
}
