This tool allows the editing of embedded binary resources within
|
1999-11-13 23:32:21 +01:00
|
|
|
*.rc files. These resources are stored as hex dump so they can be
|
1999-12-06 02:20:00 +01:00
|
|
|
stored within the cvs. This makes the editing of the embedded
|
1999-11-13 23:32:21 +01:00
|
|
|
bitmaps and icons harder.

### Create binary files from.rc ###
|
|
|
|
|
1999-12-06 02:20:00 +01:00
|
|
|
the resources in the .rc file have to be marked by a header:
|
1999-11-13 23:32:21 +01:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
/* BINRES idb_std_small.bmp */
|
|
|
|
IDB_STD_SMALL BITMAP LOADONCALL DISCARDABLE
|
|
|
|
{
|
|
|
|
'42 4D 20 07 00 00 00 00 00 00 76 00 00 00 28 00'
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
BINRES is the keyword followed by a filename.
|
|
|
|
"bin2res -d bin rsrc.rc" generates binary files from all marked
|
|
|
|
resources. If the binary file is newer it gets not overwritten.
|
|
|
|
To force overwriting use the -f switch.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Create a .rc file from binaries ###
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Put a header followed by empty brackets in the.rc file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
/* BINRES idb_std_small.bmp */
|
|
|
|
{}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Then run "bin2res rsrc.rc". It will merge the resources into the
|
|
|
|
.rc file if the binary resources are newer than the.rc file.
|
|
|
|
To force the resources into the.rc file use the -f switch.
|
|
|
|
If there is already a resource with the same filename in the.rc
|
|
|
|
file it gets overwritten.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
