[Dev-C++] loading bitmap from resource file

[Joost v. R. <jo...@va...>]

I am trying to use a bitmap image in my executable. So far I managed to
load it in to the rsrc.o file by using the following line in my resource
file...

image BITMAP "E:/image.bmp"

It is getting linked to the executable, so that seems to work fine. But I
can't seem to figure out how to use this file in the rest of my code. How
do I call it? I would like the executable to write it to some place on the
harddisk as soon as the exe file is running.

I tried to read the tutorial on http://www.foosyerdoos.fsnet.co.uk/ but
that did not help me much...
