NativeWindow.ReleaseHandle Method

Definition

public:
 virtual void ReleaseHandle();
public virtual void ReleaseHandle ();
abstract member ReleaseHandle : unit -> unit
override this.ReleaseHandle : unit -> unit
Public Overridable Sub ReleaseHandle ()

Examples

The following code example demonstrates intercepting operating system window messages in a window procedure. The example creates a class that inherits from NativeWindow to accomplish this.

The MyNativeWindowListener class hooks into the window procedure of the form passed into the constructor, and overrides the WndProc method to intercepts the WM_ACTIVATEAPP window message. The class demonstrates the use of the AssignHandle and ReleaseHandle methods to identify the window handle the NativeWindow will use. The handle is assign based upon the Control.HandleCreated and Control.HandleDestroyed events. When the WM_ACTIVATEAPP window message is received, the class calls the form1.ApplicationActivated method.

This code is an excerpt from the example shown in the NativeWindow class overview. Some code is not shown for the purpose of brevity. See NativeWindow for the whole code listing.

Remarks

This method does not destroy the window handle. Instead, it sets the handle's window procedure to the default window procedure. It sets the Handle property to 0 and calls OnHandleChange to reflect the change.

A window automatically calls this method if it receives a native Win32 WM_NCDESTROY message, indicating that Windows has destroyed the handle.
