creating and registering 1

[bubak]

Simple question, but not for me ;-(
If I'd have an class derived from some MFC class. What does mean to register it? I can create it, or so, but what registration for? (AfxRegisterWndClass is that function ;-).
Thx

You have to register your own window classes.
Nothing to worry about.
For the most part.
I've never used it, so far as I remember, maybe once.
Oh well.

AfxRegisterWndClass register a window painting stile, it's brush and cursor, it's icon.

Then when creating a window of your CWnd derived class will automatically have all this features.

However, I don't advise you to use that function so much on NT platforms. From my experience I have noticed that this call WON'T register a Pattern brush for the window style under NT platforms.

Take care, this function also consumes system's user resurces, so avoid calling it twice for the same class.

HTH, s-)
