WNDCLASSEX

hi, today i wanted to try out the MW_FEATURE_RESIZEFRAME feature (#26) so i went looking for some win32 sample programs and found this http://www.winprog.org/tutorial/

here is a small sample program i wanted to compile against microwindows (simple_window.c)

#include <windows.h>

const char g_szClassName[] = "myWindowClass";

// Step 4: the Window Procedure
LRESULT CALLBACK WndProc(HWND hwnd, UINT msg, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)
{
	switch(msg)
	{
		case WM_CLOSE:
			DestroyWindow(hwnd);
		break;
		case WM_DESTROY:
			PostQuitMessage(0);
		break;
		default:
			return DefWindowProc(hwnd, msg, wParam, lParam);
	}
	return 0;
}

int WINAPI WinMain(HINSTANCE hInstance, HINSTANCE hPrevInstance,
	LPSTR lpCmdLine, int nCmdShow)
{
	WNDCLASSEX wc;
	HWND hwnd;
	MSG Msg;

	//Step 1: Registering the Window Class
	wc.cbSize		 = sizeof(WNDCLASSEX);
	wc.style		 = 0;
	wc.lpfnWndProc	 = WndProc;
	wc.cbClsExtra	 = 0;
	wc.cbWndExtra	 = 0;
	wc.hInstance	 = hInstance;
	wc.hIcon		 = LoadIcon(NULL, IDI_APPLICATION);
	wc.hCursor		 = LoadCursor(NULL, IDC_ARROW);
	wc.hbrBackground = (HBRUSH)(COLOR_WINDOW+1);
	wc.lpszMenuName  = NULL;
	wc.lpszClassName = g_szClassName;
	wc.hIconSm		 = LoadIcon(NULL, IDI_APPLICATION);

	if(!RegisterClassEx(&wc))
	{
		MessageBox(NULL, "Window Registration Failed!", "Error!",
			MB_ICONEXCLAMATION | MB_OK);
		return 0;
	}

	// Step 2: Creating the Window
	hwnd = CreateWindowEx(
		WS_EX_CLIENTEDGE,
		g_szClassName,
		"The title of my window",
		WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW,
		CW_USEDEFAULT, CW_USEDEFAULT, 240, 120,
		NULL, NULL, hInstance, NULL);

	if(hwnd == NULL)
	{
		MessageBox(NULL, "Window Creation Failed!", "Error!",
			MB_ICONEXCLAMATION | MB_OK);
		return 0;
	}

	ShowWindow(hwnd, nCmdShow);
	UpdateWindow(hwnd);

	// Step 3: The Message Loop
	while(GetMessage(&Msg, NULL, 0, 0) > 0)
	{
		TranslateMessage(&Msg);
		DispatchMessage(&Msg);
	}
	return Msg.wParam;
}

but it seems WNDCLASSEX isn't implemented in microwindows. are there any plans to add this ?

Start by examining the Win32 compatibility headers and implementation for WNDCLASSEX and RegisterClassEx, then compare them with the sample program in the issue. Determine which parts of the WNDCLASSEX-based registration flow are missing; done means the sample can compile and use that flow under Microwindows.
