Re: [msimg32] Implements GradientFill

[Roderick Colenbrander]

I think this patch shouldn't be applied. Today I was playing with some winxp 
apps that spit out a lot of unimplemented stuff. I found the following 
undocumented function: GdiGradientFill.
After some searching on google I found some info about a function that looks a 
lot like it (brother or sister). This is the prototype as it can be used from 
good old VB:
Declare Function GdiGradientFillRect Lib "gdi32" Alias "GdiGradientFill" 
(ByVal hdc As Long, pVertex As TRIVERTEX, ByVal dwNumVertex As Long, pMesh As 
GRADIENT_RECT, ByVal dwNumMesh As Long, ByVal dwMode As Long) As Long

compare with:
BOOL WINAPI GradientFill( HDC hdc, TRIVERTEX *vert_array, ULONG nvert,
                          void * grad_array, ULONG ngrad, ULONG mode )

Mike Hearn and I assume that GdiGradientFill and GradientFill are the same. 
The one redirects to the other. Creating circular dependecies isn't a good 
problem I think. So I think this code should be moved to gdi32 and that 
msimg32 forwards it.

[msimg32] Implements GradientFill

[Maxime Bellengé]

OK I'll move the code and do a redirect.
