how to load file.bmp with macro MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDB_BITMAP) with Qt Creator

[Domenico]

Hi Guys, I need advice, which codes can I use to upload a .bitmap file and upload it to MAKEINTRESOURCE (IDB_BITMAP) for the function:

HBITMAP bitMap = (HBITMAP)LoadImageA(GetModuleHandle(NULL),MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDB_BITMAP),IMAGE_BITMAP,16,16,LR_LOADFROMFILE);

i tried with: #define IDB_BITMAP 1000

in resource.h

resource.rc
IDB_BITMAP BITMAP "file.bmp"

but it is not possible because Qt creator does not create file resource.rc but resource.qrc which is very different from resource.rc. what codes can I use to automatically load the .bmp file in the macro MAKEINTRESOURCE (IDB_BITMAP)??
thank you for those who help me

I solved the same way:

#include "afxwin.h"
#include <qt_windows.h>
#include <QtWinExtras/qwinfunctions.h>

QT_BEGIN_NAMESPACE
Q_GUI_EXPORT HBITMAP qt_pixmapToWinHBITMAP(const QPixmap &p, int hbitmapFormat = 0);

QPixmap pixmap(":/resources/images/file.bmp");
if(!pixmap.isNull())
{
pixmap = pixmap.scaled(16,16);
}
HBITMAP bitMap = qt_pixmapToWinHBITMAP(pixmap);

thanks all the same for those who wanted to help me!!
