I created class CSurfaceWnd from CWnd by Class Wizard. I tried to create window but getting error. That's my code of creating:
if(!m_pSurfaceWnd)
{
CString m_NameClass = AfxRegisterWndClass(
CS_VREDRAW | CS_HREDRAW,
::LoadCursor(NULL, IDC_ARROW),
(HBRUSH) ::GetStockObject(WHITE_BRUSH),
::LoadIcon(NULL, IDI_APPLICATION));
m_pSurfaceWnd = new CSurfaceWnd;
CRect rcTemp;
GetWindowRect(rcTemp);
VERIFY(m_pSurfaceWnd->CreateEx(WS_EX_CLIENTEDGE, m_NameClass, NULL, WS_POPUP | WS_VISIBLE, rcTemp, mpWnd, 1));
//DWORD dw =GetLastError();
m_pSurfaceWnd->ShowWindow(SW_SHOW);
}
else
m_pSurfaceWnd->ShowWindow(SW_SHOW);
How can You see I'm creating pop up window that's why I'm using CreateEx. I have registered class and in debug mode I see a number of new class in m_NameClass. But CreateEx returned false. Please help me. Probably you will see some error that I can't see.Please Don't send me to MSDN I have read it a lot of times. Thank you
First of all, you have to check whether mpWnd is valid object.
BOOL isValid = ::IsWindow(mpWnd->GetSafeHwnd());
If mpWnd is invalid value, CreateEx function will return 0 because of WS_POPUP style.
