what is the flow for a simple win32 application

 

Check in the 'Win32 resources' tutorials at the top of this forum's listings
or
Get right into msdn starting here:
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa383750.aspx
and work you way down to: 'A Generic Sample Application'

 

int __stdcall WinMain(HINSTANCE hHinstance,HINSTANCE hPrevInstance, LPSTR lpStr,int nShowCmd)
{
WNDCLASSEX wcex;
MSG msg;
//fill every wcex data individually
....
....
....
RegisterClassEx(&wcex);
ghwnd = CreateWindow(.....);
ShowWindow(..);
UpdateWindow(...);
while(GetMessage(&msg,0,0,0))
{
TranslateMessage(&msg);
DispatchMessage(&msg);
}
return msg.wParam;
}


LPRESULT __stdcall WndClass(HWND hWnd, UINT msg, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)
{
switch(msg)
{
case WM_CLOSE:
PostQuiteMessage(0);
return 0;
}
retunr DefWindowProc(hWnd,msg,wParam, lParam);
}

this is the simplest window
