CWnd::Create
Creates the specified child window and attaches it to the CWnd object.
virtual BOOL Create(
LPCTSTR lpszClassName,
LPCTSTR lpszWindowName,
DWORD dwStyle,
Const RECT& rect,
CWnd* pParentWnd,
UINT nID,
CCreateContext* pContext = NULL
);
Parameters
[in] lpszClassName
Pointer to a null-terminated string that contains the name of a registered system window class; or the name of a predefined system window class.[in] lpszWindowName
Pointer to a null-terminated string that contains the window display name; otherwise NULL for no window display name.[in] dwStyle
Bitwise combination (OR) of window styles. The WS_POPUP option is not a valid style.[in] rect
The size and location of the window relative to the top-left corner of the parent window.[in] pParentWnd
Pointer to the parent window.[in] nID
ID of the window.[in] pContext
Pointer to a CCreateContext structure that is used to customize the document-view architecture for the application.
Return Value
TRUE if the method was successful; otherwise FALSE.
Remarks
Use the AfxRegisterWndClass function to register window classes. User defined window classes are available in the module where they are registered.
The CWnd::OnCreate method is called before the Create method returns, and before the window becomes visible.
Example
// Dynamically create static control using CWnd::Create,
// instead of with CStatic::Create, which doesn't
// need the "STATIC" class name.
void CMyDlg::OnCreateStatic()
{
// m_pWndStatic is a CWnd* member of CMyDlg
m_pWndStatic = new CWnd;
m_pWndStatic->Create(_T("STATIC"), _T("Hi"), WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE,
CRect(0, 0, 20, 20), this, 1234);
}
