Thread: Wm_command?

can you use switch case in the WM_COMMAND message instead of if in C and API?

if so how would you do this, thanks

Of course u can use switch statements:

eg:-
switch(&msg)
{
case WM_COMMAND:
{
case 1: //Add cases such as button clicks
//Add code here
}
}

I'm new 2 the subject. apologies if something gets wrong

here ill explain what i mean
with if you use say
if((HWND)lParam == hwndButton){....

is there a way with switch case so you can case hwndButton like this.

case hwndButton:

or something like that

Where's the problem? Example:

Code:

switch (uMsg)
{
case WM_COMMAND:
    WORD wCtrlID = LOWORD(wParam);
    WORD wNotify = HIWORD(wParam);
    
    if (lParam) // Control
        switch (wCtrl)
        {
        case IDC_BUTTON1:
            if (wNotify == BN_CLICKED)
                DoStuff();
            break;
        case IDC_BUTTON2:
            if (wNotify == BN_CLICKED)
                DoStuff();
            break;
        case IDC_BUTTON2:
            if (wNotify == BN_CLICKED)
                DoStuff();
            break;
        }
    else        // Menu
    {
    }
    
    return 0;
    
case WM_DESTROY:
    PostQuitMessage(0);
    return 0;
}
