    Implant a callback inside a class

    I'm not sure how to put a callback inside a class. What I have right now doesn't work.

    Code:
    class Listbox
    {
    	private:
    		void Create();
    
    		LRESULT CALLBACK WindowProcedure(HWND, UINT, WPARAM, LPARAM);
    };
    
    
    
    
    /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
    ///// Create /////
    /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
    void Listbox::Create()
    {
        winc.hInstance = NULL;
    	winc.hInstance = NULL;
        winc.lpszClassName = "Listbox";
    	winc.lpfnWndProc = WindowProcedure;
        winc.style = CS_DBLCLKS;
        winc.cbSize = sizeof(WNDCLASSEX);
    
        
        winc.hIcon = LoadIcon(NULL, IDI_APPLICATION);
        winc.hIconSm = LoadIcon(NULL, IDI_APPLICATION);
        winc.hCursor = LoadCursor(NULL, IDC_ARROW);
        winc.lpszMenuName = NULL;
        winc.cbClsExtra = 0;
        winc.cbWndExtra = 0;
        winc.hbrBackground = (HBRUSH)COLOR_BACKGROUND;
    }
    
    /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
    ///// Windows Proc Callback /////
    /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
    LRESULT CALLBACK Listbox::WindowProcedure(HWND hwnd, UINT message, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)
    {
        switch (message)
        {
    		case WM_COMMAND:
    			break;
    
            case WM_DESTROY:
                break;
    
            default:
                return DefWindowProc(hwnd, message, wParam, lParam);
        }
        
        return 0;
    }
    The errors I get are:

    error C3867: 'Listbox::WindowProcedure': function call missing argument list; use '&Listbox::WindowProcedure' to create a pointer to member
    error C2440: '=' : cannot convert from 'LRESULT (__stdcall Listbox::* )(HWND,UINT,WPARAM,LPARAM)' to 'WNDPROC'


    I am not too worried about the first error cause if I do what it says I get the second error and the first one disapears.

    Without classes (like a ragular windows app) it works fine, but if it is in a class like this it gives those errors.

    I sucseded in doing that. the LRESULT CALLBACK definitions should be the same, and maybe public?

    This question has been asked, answered and discussed a lot in the past in the windows board, like here and here.

    I'm sure a board search will turn up more information if the discussions in those threads I've linked to do not suffice.

    ok I sucesfully implanted the windows thunk. But now I have a new question.

    from msdn:

    An application sends the LBN_DBLCLK notification message when the user double-clicks a string in a list box. The parent window of the list box receives this notification message through the WM_COMMAND message.
    The question is, is the LBN_DBLCLK (and alike notifications) always sent to the parent. My thunk doesn't seem to catch any WM_COMMAND.
