This function retrieves information about the specified window on a remote Windows Embedded CE–based device. CeGetWindowLong also retrieves the 32-bit (long) value at the specified offset into the extra window memory of a window.

Syntax

LONG CeGetWindowLong(
  HWND hWnd, 
  Int nIndex 
);

Parameters

  • hWnd
    Handle to the window and, indirectly, the class to which the window belongs.
  • nIndex
    Specifies the zero-based offset to the value to be retrieved. Valid values are in the range zero through the number of bytes of extra window memory, minus four; for example, if you specified 12 or more bytes of extra memory, a value of 8 would be an index to the third 32-bit integer. To retrieve any other value, specify one of the following values.
