在WinApi中使用C＃笔和画笔？

Question

How can I get HBRUSH from Brush and HPEN from Pen ?
I wonder is there any connection between the two sides ?

(I want to use WinApi functions that are not implemented in .NET's System.Drawing such as DrawRoundRect / CreateRoundRectRgn and I want to use brushes from .NET for that instead of creating them on my own.)

Answer 1

The Brush class does have a private field called nativeBrush which holds the HBRUSH handle as an IntPtr.

Because it's a private field, it could change with any revision to .Net, but if you don't mind using some dodgy, brittle reflection to get at its value, you could do something nasty like this:

Brush brush = ...the brush that you want to get at the handle for
FieldInfo field = typeof(Brush).GetField("nativeBrush",BindingFlags.NonPublic|BindingFlags.Instance);
IntPtr hbrush = (IntPtr)field.GetValue(brush);

There is a similar field for Pen called nativePen which you can access using similar reflection code.

However, if you can use GraphicsPath as Don shows above, that would be much less risky.

Answer 2

I don't have the original source any longer, might even have been a SO item. At any rate, here's a class someone provided a while back that I use:

/// <summary>
/// Collection of often-used classes and methods for easy access.
/// </summary>
public class RoundedDrawing
{
    private static GraphicsPath GetRoundedRectanglePath(Int32 x, Int32 y, Int32 width, Int32 height, Int32 radius)
    {
        GraphicsPath path = new GraphicsPath();
        path.AddLine(x + radius, y, x + width - radius, y);
        if (radius > 0)
            path.AddArc(x + width - 2 * radius, y, 2 * radius, 2 * radius, 270.0f, 90.0f);
        path.AddLine(x + width, y + radius, x + width, y + height - radius);
        if (radius > 0)
            path.AddArc(x + width - 2 * radius, y + height - 2 * radius, 2 * radius, 2 * radius, 0.0f, 90.0f);
        path.AddLine(x + width - radius, y + height, x + radius, y + height);
        if (radius > 0)
            path.AddArc(x, y + height - 2 * radius, 2 * radius, 2 * radius, 90.0f, 90.0f);
        path.AddLine(x, y + height - radius, x, y + radius);
        if (radius > 0)
            path.AddArc(x, y, 2 * radius, 2 * radius, 180.0f, 90.0f);
        return path;
    }

Just make calls from within any Paint or PaintBackground event where you're handed a Graphics object. Pass that in along with whatever else, and draw rounded stuff.

It's an option to keep it all in .NET without external P/Invokes.
