WM_GETMINMAXINFO.

Is it needed to be handled in a certain way, as it keeps firing before my
WM_CREATE message? A couple of others aswell actually, WM_CREATE is about
the fourth in the early stages of the newborn window's lifetime.

Like most messages, DefWindowProc will do what it believes to be the right
thing. If you don't want the default behavior, you can handle it. Here's a
kb article...

OK Thanks. Did you just know that off the top of your head?

 

[Bonj]

OK, it gets 36 (getminmaxinfo), 129 (wm_nccreate), then 131, then WM_CREATE
(which is 1).
What's 131?

WM_NCCALCSIZE?

Know which? I knew the message, knew the kb article was there, but did not
know the kb id or URL.

If you are debugging your application, type

messageNo, wm

in the watch window to get the actual name of the message. For example

131,wm = WM_NCCALCSIZE

Go learn to use google and / or windows.h tard

OK, it gets 36 (getminmaxinfo), 129 (wm_nccreate), then 131, then WM_CREATE
(which is 1).
What's 131?

 

[Bonj]

Well I would if I only HAD a windows.h!!!

I use Borland

What Borland? Delphi? C++ Builder?

The windows.h comes with the platform SDK, and you need it, whichever
compiler you use, if you want to call the windowing API.

The consts are in WinUser.h I attached it in teh previous reply.

 

[Guest]

Oh you've ATTACHED it! lovely! I'll just plug it in to the SDK include directory then shall I?

 

[Guest]

yes, Borland C++ builder. On my computer now
c:\borland\bcc55\includ
contains a huge amount of .h files. The normal amount for an include directory
When I install the SDK, th
c:\program files\microsoft.net\sdk\v1.1\includ
contains about 20 files

So I use Borland

That's not the SDK you need for writing real Windows programs, i.e. the
Platform SDK. That is the .NET SDK for writing .NET programs.

The Platform SDK can be downloaded here:

[Bonj]

Well what do you actualy GET with the .NET SDK then? Because you get the C#
compiler with the framework, and surely don't you need windows.h to compile
a managed C++ program?
