Create CImage from Byte array

Question

I need to create a CImage from a byte array (actually, its an array of unsigned char, but I can cast to whatever form is necessary). The byte array is in the fo

CImage supports DIBs quite neatly and has a SetPixel() method so you could presumably do something like this (uncompiled, untested code ahead!):

CImage img;
img.Create(width, height, 24 /* bpp */, 0 /* No alpha channel */);

int nPixel = 0;
for(int row = 0; row < height; row++)
{
    for(int col = 0; col < width; col++)
    {
        BYTE r = imgBits[nPixel++];
        BYTE g = imgBits[nPixel++];
        BYTE b = imgBits[nPixel++];
        img.SetPixel(row, col, RGB(r, g, b));
    }
}

Maybe not the most efficient method but I should think it is the simplest approach.
