How the Framework Calls a Handler

Note

The Microsoft Foundation Classes (MFC) library continues to be supported. However, we're no longer adding features or updating the documentation.

The following topics first examine how the framework routes commands, then examine how other messages and control notifications are sent to windows:

• Message sending and receiving

• How noncommand messages reach their handlers

• Command routing

• Command Routing Illustration

• The OnCmdMsg Handler

• Overriding the Standard Command Routing
