GetClassInfoEx  IPYLR2 

The GetClassInfoEx function retrieves information about a window class, including the handle of the small icon associated with the window class. The GetClassInfoH9YWP4 function does not retrieve the handle of the small icon.

BOOL GetClassInfoEx(

    HINSTANCE hinst,

// handle of application instance

    LPCTSTR lpszClass,

// address of class name string

    LPWNDCLASSEX lpwcx

// address of structure for class data

   );

 

 

Parameters

hinst

Identifies the instance of the application that created the class. To retrieve information about classes defined by Windows (such as buttons or list boxes), set this parameter to NULL.

lpszClass

Points to a null-terminated string containing the class name. The name must be that of a preregistered class or a class registered by a previous call to the RegisterClass6V_00HU function. Alternatively, this parameter can be an integer atom. If this parameter is an integer atom, it must be a global atom created by a previous call to the GlobalAddAtom1QH2CM4 function. The atom, a 16-bit value less than 0xC000, must be in the low-order word of lpszClass; the high-order word must be zero.

lpwcx

Points to a WNDCLASSEX2D0J0KL structure that receives the information about the class.

 

Return Values

If the function finds a matching class and successfully copies the data, the return value is nonzero.

If the function does not find a matching class and successfully copy the data, the return value is zero. To get extended error information, call GetLastError11C2VS7.
