New to the Win32 API, I have finally been able to register and create a main window with some children. I've even been able to name my children (use their HMENU parameter in CreateWindowEx), so that I can receive messages from them.
My issue is that I seem to be getting two messages. I don't want to embaress myself too much, so I won't paste too much code:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13
// Things that come before
case WM_COMMAND:
wmId = LOWORD(wParam);
wmEvent = HIWORD(wParam);
// Parse the menu selections:
switch (wmId)
{
case IDS_EDIT01:
MessageBox(NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL);
break;
// Things that come after
So, IDS_EDIT01 is the name of my edit box. I'm taking this step-by-step, and my first attempt is "if the edit box is clicked, post a message box". And it does. The problem is that it posts two message boxes.
Is someone familiar with this and knows what might be going wrong? Perhaps when I click on the edit box I am also clicking on the main window. How does one click go through a switch case twice?
I could paste more code, but I'm not even sure what to paste.
I think you should paste more of your WndProc loop, or whatever you called it ( I mean the Message Handling loop )
EDIT: Oh wait, it's a EditBox, and not a button-as of now i cannot help you, i will look around for a bit.
RE-EDIT: Look at this: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/bb775458(v=vs.85).aspx
Especially search for WM_COMMAND.
Those EN_... definitions will be stored in wmEvent, so check wmEvent for EN_SETFOCUS.
