_FindWindow( ) API Library Routine

  • [アーティクル]

Places the handle of the window that the point pt belongs to on the screen into wh.

int _FindWindow(WHANDLE FAR *wh, Point pt)
WHANDLE FAR *wh;      /* Pointer to window handle. */
Point pt;                     /* Point. */

Remarks

_FindWindow( ) returns an integer indicating the portion of the window where the point is located. For example, _FindWindow( ) returns the value inContent if the point is inside the window.

Possible return values, as defined in PRO_EXT.H, are listed in the following table.

_FindWindow( ) Return Values

Value Point Location
inBorder In the window border
inHelp In the help region
inContent In the content/text area
inDrag On the title bar
inGrow On the size control
inGoAway On the close box
inZoom On the zoom control
inVUpArrow On the up arrow in the vertical scroll bar
inVDownArrow On the down arrow in the vertical scroll bar
inVPageUp In the page up region of the vertical scroll bar
inVPageDown In the page down region of the vertical scroll bar
inVThumb On the thumb in the vertical scroll bar
inHUpArrow On the right arrow in the horizontal scroll bar

Example

The following example waits for a left mouse button click and then uses _FindWindow( ) to get the window handle for the mouse down position.

Visual FoxPro Code

WAIT WINDOW  "Click mouse on a window" NOWAIT
SET LIBRARY TO FINDWIND

C Code

#include <pro_ext.h>

void putLong(long n, int width)
{
   Value val;

   val.ev_type = 'I';
   val.ev_long = n;
   val.ev_width = width;

   _PutValue(&val);
}

{
   WHANDLE wh;
   Point mousePos;
   int where;

//  Get mouse position when left button goes down
   while (_InKey(0, MOUSEACTIVE | HIDECURSOR) != 151);
   while (!_MousePos(&mousePos));
