STYLESTRUCT (Compact 2013)

  • Article

3/28/2014

This structure contains the window styles for a window.

Syntax

typedef struct tagSTYLESTRUCT { 
  DWORD styleOld; 
  DWORD styleNew; 
} STYLESTRUCT, *LPSTYLESTRUCT;

Members

  • styleOld
    Specifies the previous styles for a window. For more information, see the Remarks section.
  • styleNew
    Specifies the new styles for a window. For more information, see the Remarks section.

Remarks

The styles in styleOld and styleNew can be either the window styles (WS_*) or the extended window styles (WS_EX_*), depending on the wParam of the message that includes STYLESTRUCT.

The styleOld and styleNew members indicate the styles through their bit pattern. Note that several styles are equal to zero; to detect these styles, test for the negation of their inverse style. For example, to see if WS_EX_LEFT is set, you test for ~WS_EX_RIGHT.
