FrameRect function (winuser.h)
The FrameRect function draws a border around the specified rectangle by using the specified brush. The width and height of the border are always one logical unit.
Syntax
int FrameRect(
[in] HDC hDC,
[in] const RECT *lprc,
[in] HBRUSH hbr
);
Parameters
[in] hDC
A handle to the device context in which the border is drawn.
[in] lprc
A pointer to a RECT structure that contains the logical coordinates of the upper-left and lower-right corners of the rectangle.
[in] hbr
A handle to the brush used to draw the border.
Return value
If the function succeeds, the return value is nonzero.
If the function fails, the return value is zero.
Remarks
The brush identified by the hbr parameter must have been created by using the CreateHatchBrush, CreatePatternBrush, or CreateSolidBrush function, or retrieved by using the GetStockObject function.
If the bottom member of the RECT structure is less than the top member, or if the right member is less than the left member, the function does not draw the rectangle.
