I am updating an existing code base from IplImage* to the newer cv::Mat. I was wondering how to display my cv::Mat object to MFC. The current solution we are using is based on the old CvvImage class:
void DrawPicToHDC(IplImage *img, UINT ID, bool bOnPaint)
{
CDC *pDC = GetDlgItem(ID)->GetDC();
HDC hDC= pDC->GetSafeHdc();
CRect rect;
GetDlgItem(ID)->GetClientRect(&rect);
CvvImage cimg;
cimg.CopyOf( img );
cimg.DrawToHDC( hDC, &rect );
ReleaseDC( pDC );
}
I came across this thread but unfortunately the answer provided doesn't meet my needs because the answers still require you to convert the Mat to an IplImage* before displaying.
Is there any way to do this using cv::Mat only? Any help is much appreciated.
UPDATE: I adapted the above function to using cv::Mat with the help from Kornel's answer. I now do not need to include the CvvImage class:
void DrawPicToHDC(cv::Mat cvImg, UINT ID, bool bOnPaint)
{
// Get the HDC handle information from the ID passed
CDC *pDC = GetDlgItem(ID)->GetDC();
HDC hDCDst = pDC->GetSafeHdc();
CRect rect;
GetDlgItem(ID)->GetClientRect(&rect);
cv::Size winSize(rect.right, rect.bottom);
// Resize the source to the size of the destination image if necessary
cv::Mat cvImgTmp(winSize, CV_8UC3);
if (cvImg.size() != winSize)
{
cv::resize(cvImg, cvImgTmp, winSize);
}
else
{
cvImgTmp = cvImg;
}
// Rotate the image
cv::flip(cvImgTmp,cvImgTmp,0);
// Initialize the BITMAPINFO structure
BITMAPINFO bitInfo;
bitInfo.bmiHeader.biBitCount = 24;
bitInfo.bmiHeader.biWidth = winSize.width;
bitInfo.bmiHeader.biHeight = winSize.height;
bitInfo.bmiHeader.biPlanes = 1;
bitInfo.bmiHeader.biSize = sizeof(BITMAPINFOHEADER);
bitInfo.bmiHeader.biCompression = BI_RGB;
bitInfo.bmiHeader.biClrImportant = 0;
bitInfo.bmiHeader.biClrUsed = 0;
bitInfo.bmiHeader.biSizeImage = 0;
bitInfo.bmiHeader.biXPelsPerMeter = 0;
bitInfo.bmiHeader.biYPelsPerMeter = 0;
// Add header and OPENCV image's data to the HDC
StretchDIBits(hDCDst, 0, 0,
winSize.width, winSize.height, 0, 0,
winSize.width, winSize.height,
cvImgTmp.data, &bitInfo, DIB_RGB_COLORS, SRCCOPY);
ReleaseDC( pDC );
}
