read bitmap file into structure
here A short working example.
It converts a wav-file to bmp (a long ago I had such fun).

unsigned int size; /* File size in bytes */
unsigned int reserved;
unsigned int offset; /* Offset to image data, bytes */
} HEADER;
typedef struct {
unsigned int size; /* Header size in bytes */
int width,height; /* Width and height of image */
unsigned short planes; /* Number of colour planes */
unsigned short bits; /* Bits per pixel */
unsigned int compression; /* Compression type */

»This is how you manually load a .BMP file
The bitmap file format:
- Bitmap file header
- Bitmap info header
- Palette data
- Bitmap data
So on with the code part. This is our struct we need to create to hold the bitmap file header.
#pragma pack(push, 1)
typedef struct tagBITMAPFILEHEADER
{
WORD bfType; //specifies the file type
DWORD bfSize; //specifies the size in bytes of the bitmap file
WORD bfReserved1; //reserved; must be 0
WORD bfReserved2; //reserved; must be 0
DWORD bfOffBits; //specifies the offset in bytes from the bitmapfileheader to the bitmap bits
}BITMAPFILEHEADER;
#pragma pack(pop)
The bftype field checks to see if you are in fact loading a .BMP file, and if you are, the field should be 0x4D42.
Now we need to create our bitmapinfoheader struct. This holds info about our bitmap.
#pragma pack(push, 1)
typedef struct tagBITMAPINFOHEADER
{
DWORD biSize; //specifies the number of bytes required by the struct
LONG biWidth; //specifies width in pixels
LONG biHeight; //specifies height in pixels
WORD biPlanes; //specifies the number of color planes, must be 1
WORD biBitCount; //specifies the number of bits per pixel
DWORD biCompression; //specifies the type of compression
DWORD biSizeImage; //size of image in bytes
LONG biXPelsPerMeter; //number of pixels per meter in x axis
LONG biYPelsPerMeter; //number of pixels per meter in y axis
DWORD biClrUsed; //number of colors used by the bitmap
DWORD biClrImportant; //number of colors that are important
}BITMAPINFOHEADER;
#pragma pack(pop)
Now on to loading our bitmap.
unsigned char *LoadBitmapFile(char *filename, BITMAPINFOHEADER *bitmapInfoHeader)
{
FILE *filePtr; //our file pointer
BITMAPFILEHEADER bitmapFileHeader; //our bitmap file header
unsigned char *bitmapImage; //store image data
int imageIdx=0; //image index counter
unsigned char tempRGB; //our swap variable
//open file in read binary mode
filePtr = fopen(filename,"rb");
if (filePtr == NULL)
return NULL;
//read the bitmap file header
fread(&bitmapFileHeader, sizeof(BITMAPFILEHEADER),1,filePtr);
//verify that this is a .BMP file by checking bitmap id
if (bitmapFileHeader.bfType !=0x4D42)
{
fclose(filePtr);
return NULL;
}
//read the bitmap info header
fread(bitmapInfoHeader, sizeof(BITMAPINFOHEADER),1,filePtr);
//move file pointer to the beginning of bitmap data
fseek(filePtr, bitmapFileHeader.bfOffBits, SEEK_SET);
//allocate enough memory for the bitmap image data
bitmapImage = (unsigned char*)malloc(bitmapInfoHeader->biSizeImage);
//verify memory allocation
if (!bitmapImage)
{
free(bitmapImage);
fclose(filePtr);
return NULL;
}
//read in the bitmap image data
fread(bitmapImage,bitmapInfoHeader->biSizeImage,1,filePtr);
//make sure bitmap image data was read
if (bitmapImage == NULL)
{
fclose(filePtr);
return NULL;
}
//swap the R and B values to get RGB (bitmap is BGR)
for (imageIdx = 0;imageIdx < bitmapInfoHeader->biSizeImage;imageIdx+=3)
{
tempRGB = bitmapImage[imageIdx];
bitmapImage[imageIdx] = bitmapImage[imageIdx + 2];
bitmapImage[imageIdx + 2] = tempRGB;
}
//close file and return bitmap image data
fclose(filePtr);
return bitmapImage;
}
Now to make use of all of this:
BITMAPINFOHEADER bitmapInfoHeader;
unsigned char *bitmapData;
// ...
bitmapData = LoadBitmapFile("mypic.bmp",&bitmapInfoHeader);
//now do what you want with it, later on I will show you how to display it in a normal window
Later on I'll put up Writing to a .BMP, and how to load a targa file, and how to display them.«
