Win32 Objects

er, I don''t think so. You can put a button right into a parent form without creating a child window for it, and it doesn''t have it''s own wndProc... is that what you meant?

Window objects use wndclassex structures and wndproc callbacks. Other objects don''t, such as Kernel objects (processes, semaphores, mutexes, files, sockets etc...).

Less answered my question thanks... It just that i want to create a class thatw ill wrap all the creation of objects such as buttons, windows, scroll bars etc...

As for file object, sockets, semaphores, I know they use there handles etc....

If you can get a window handle to the object, then somewhere, there was a WNDCLASSEX for it, and there is a WndProc for it. There are APIs that you can use to retrieve the class name given a window handle, and then from that class name, retrieve the information associated with that class (ie. the WNDCLASSEX structure). You can also retrieve the WndProc using the GetWindowLong[Ptr] function. This is how subclassing windows works.

I already have a sub class of my window object. Just that am not to happy the way it is implemented. So am looking to clean it up a bit etc....
