This function creates the union of two rectangles. The union is the smallest rectangle that contains both source rectangles.

Syntax

BOOL UnionRect(
  LPRECT lprcDst, 
  const RECT* lprcSrc1, 
  const RECT* lprcSrc2
);

Parameters

  • lprcDst
    Long pointer to the RECT structure that will receive a rectangle containing the rectangles pointed to by the lprcSrc1 and lprcSrc2 parameters.
  • lprcSrc1
    Long pointer to the RECT structure that contains the first source rectangle.
  • lprcSrc2
    Long pointer to the RECT structure that contains the second source rectangle.

Return Value

Nonzero indicates that the specified structure contains a nonempty rectangle.

Zero indicates that the specified structure does not contain a nonempty rectangle.

To get extended error information, call GetLastError.

Remarks

The system ignores the dimensions of an empty rectangle; that is, a rectangle in which all coordinates are set to zero, so it has no height or no width.
