CBaseWindow::InitialiseWindow

The InitialiseWindow method initializes the window.

Syntax

  virtual InitialiseWindow(
    HWND hwnd
);

Parameters

hwnd

Handle to the window.

Return Value

Returns S_OK.

Remarks

By default, this method retrieves a handle to the window's device context (DC) and creates a compatible memory DC. If the value of the CBaseWindow::m_bDoGetDC flag is FALSE, however, this method does not retrieve the device contexts. The memory DC is useful for selecting bitmaps before blitting them to the window.

The CBaseWindow::DoCreateWindow method calls this method.

Requirements

**  Header:** Declared in Winutil.h; include Streams.h.

**  Library:** Use Strmbase.lib (retail builds) or Strmbasd.lib (debug builds).
